Two spectators at a soccer game in Montjuic Stadium see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. Th
NikAS [45]

Answer:

a) 68.943 m

b) 41.846 m

c) 80.648 m

Explanation:

Given:

Delay in time for spectator A, t₁ = 0.201 s

Delay in time for spectator B, t₂ = 0.122 s

the delay in sound heard is the due to the distance being traveled by the sound from the kicker to the spectator

thus,

a) Distance of the kicker from A,

d₁ = speed of sound × time taken

d₁ = 343 m/s × 0.201 s = 68.943 m

b)  Distance of the kicker from B,

d₂ = speed of sound × time taken

d₂ = 343 m/s × 0.122 = 41.846 m

c) Since the angle between the two spectators for the player is 90°

thus, a right angles triangle is formed.

where, the distance between the spectators is the hypotenuses (s) of the so formed triangle

Therefore,

s² = d₁² + d₂²

on substituting the values, we get

s² = 68.943² + 41.846²

or

s² = 6504.22

or

s = √6504.22

or

s = 80.648 m

hence, the distance between the spectators is 80.648 m

An apple weighs 1.00 N. When you hang it from the end of a long spring of force constant 1.50 N/m and negligible mass, it bounce
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

2.67 m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 1.5 N/m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

l = Unstretched length

Frequency of SHM motion is given by

f_s=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

Frequency of pendulum is given by

f_p=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}

Given in the question

f_p=\dfrac{1}{2}f_s

\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g}{l}=\dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{k}{m}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4gm}{k}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4\times 9.81\times \dfrac{1}{9.81}}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow l=2.67\ m

The unstretched length of the spring is 2.67 m

A car travels 60 miles due West first then turns back and travels 120 miles due East in 3 hours. What is...
ella [17]

Answer:

<h2>A. 180 miles</h2><h2>B. 60 miles</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

In this problem, we are required to solve for the total distance that the car travelled. and the displacement

A) the distance travelled by car

this can be gotten by summing all the distances the car has travelled.

i,e total distance= 60 miles+120 miles

total distance= 180 miles

B) the displacement of the car

the displacement can be gotten by  subtracting the final distance from the initial distance

final distance = 120 miles

initial distance= 60 miles

displacement= 120-60= 60 miles

An airplane wing is designed so that the speed of the air across the top of the wing is 255 m/s when the speed of the air below
grin007 [14]
<h2>Answer:442758.96N</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is solved using Bernoulli's equation.

Let P be the pressure at a point.

Let p be the density fluid at a point.

Let v be the velocity of fluid at a point.

Bernoulli's equation states that P+\frac{1}{2}pv^{2}+pgh=constant for all points.

Lets apply the equation of a point just above the wing and to point just below the wing.

Let p_{up} be the pressure of a point just above the wing.

Let p_{do} be the pressure of a point just below the wing.

Since the aeroplane wing is flat,the heights of both the points are same.

\frac{1}{2}(1.29)(255)^{2}+p_{up}= \frac{1}{2}(1.29)(199)^{2}+p_{do}

So,p_{up}-p_{do}=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (25424)=16398.48Pa

Force is given by the product of pressure difference and area.

Given that area is 27ms^{2}.

So,lifting force is 16398.48\times 27=442758.96N
