Answer:
This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion e.g motion of an accelerating car. Mathematically,
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv² where;
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
If Object 1 of mass m moves with speed v in the positive direction, its kinetic energy will be expressed as;
K1 = 1/2mv²
For Object 2 of mass 3m moving with speed 4v in the negative x-direction, its kinetic energy can be expressed as;
K2 = 1/2(3m)(4v)²
K2 = 1/2(3m)(16v²)
K2 = (3m)(8v²)
K2 = 24mv²
To compare the kinetic energy of both bodies, we will take the ratio of K2:K1 to have;
K2/K1 = 24mv²/(1/2)mv²
K2/K1 = 24/(1/2)
K2/K1 = 48
K2 = 48K1
This means that the kinetic energy of second object is 48times that of the first object and moving in the negative x direction since the body of mass 3m initially moves in the negative x direction.
Answer:
Explanation:
As the source is situated on x - axis , it must be situated in between the two listeners .
So the x coordinate of source is
(-7 + 3 )/2
= - 2 m
The equation of the wave- front will be that o a circle having centre at (-2,0)
and radius = distance between -2 and 3 , that is 5 m
equation of circle
=( x+2 )² + y² = 25
It cuts y axis when x = 0
Putting x = 0
4 + y² = 25
y² = 21
y = + √21 , or - √21
