<span>We know that the momentum keeps constant in a inelastic collisions, so the product of mass and speed do not change:
   m1 * v1 + m2 * v2 = m * v
 1 * 1 + 5 * 0 = (1 + 5) * v
  1 = 6 * v
 v = 1/6 m/s
   So the final speed of the 6 kg chunk will travel at 0.167 m/s</span>

Resonance in air column is used in which of these musical instruments
zvonat [6]

Answer: The correct answer is "trumpet".

Explanation:

Resonance occurs when the applied frequency on the object is equal to the natural frequency of the object.

Wind instruments use resonance in the air column to amplify the sound. It makes the sound louder. Sound is produced by using lips or vibrating reeds or buzzing sound into the mouthpiece.

Therefore, resonance in air column is used in trumpet musical instruments.

3. A football is kicked with a speed of 35 m/s at an angle of 40°.
jarptica [38.1K]

a) 22.5 m/s

The initial vertical velocity is given by:

u_y = u sin \theta

where

u = 35 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=40^{\circ} is the angle of projection of the ball

Substituting into the equation, we find

u_y = (35)(sin 40)=22.5 m/s

b) 26.8 m/s

The initial horizontal velocity is given by:

u_x = u cos \theta

where

u = 35 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=40^{\circ} is the angle of projection of the ball

Substituting into the equation, we find

u_x = (35)(cos 40)=26.8 m/s

c) 2.30 s

The time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum heigth can be found by considering the vertical motion only. This is a uniformly accelerated motion (free-fall), so we can use the suvat equation

v_y = u_y + at

where

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

u_y = 22.5 m/s

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)

At the maximum height, the vertical velocity becomes zero, v_y =0; substituting, we find the time t at which this happens:

0=u_y + gt\\t=-\frac{u_y}{g}=-\frac{22.5}{-9.8}=2.30 s

d) 25.8 m

The maximum height can also be found by considering the vertical motion only. We can use the following suvat equation:

s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement at time t

u_y = 22.5 m/s

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Substituting t = 2.30 s, we find the displacement at maximum height, so the maximum height:

s=(22.5)(2.30)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2.30)^2=25.8 m

e) 123.3 m

In order to find how far does the ball lands, we have to consider the horizontal motion.

First of all, the time it takes for the ball to go back to the ground is twice the time needed for reaching the maximum height:

t=2(2.30 s)=4.60 s

Then, we consider the horizontal motion. There is no acceleration along this direction, so the horizontal velocity is constant:

v_x = 26.8 m/s

Therefore, the horizontal distance travelled during the whole motion is

d=v_x t = (26.8)(4.60)=123.3 m

So, the ball lands 123.3 m far from the initial point.
