<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement with respect to time. It is a vector quantity because it requires both magnitude and direction. It is expressed in meters/second (m/s).

Mathematically,

\text{Velocity}=\frac{d}{t}

Where,

d = displacement = 100 meters

t = time taken = 0.29 seconds

Putting the values in above equation, we get:

\text{Velocity}=\frac{100m}{0.29s}\\\\\text{Velocity}=344.82m/s\approx 345m/s

The sound wave is moving with a velocity os 345 m/s in the direction of the field.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

A cylindrical rod of mass M. length L and radius R has two cords wound around it whose ends are a
Rudik [331]

Answer:

T = mg/6

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram (see attached).  There are two tension forces acting upward at the edge of the cylinder, and weight at the center acting downwards.

The center rotates about the point where the cords touch the edge.  Sum the torques about that point:

∑τ = Iα

mgr = (1/2 mr² + mr²) α

mgr = 3/2 mr² α

g = 3/2 r α

α = 2g / (3r)

(Notice that you have to use parallel axis theorem to find the moment of inertia of the cylinder about the point on its edge rather than its center.)

Now, sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

2T − mg = m (-a)

2T − mg = -ma

Since a = αr:

2T − mg = -mαr

Substituting expression for α:

2T − mg = -m (2g / (3r)) r

2T − mg = -2/3 mg

2T = 1/3 mg

T = 1/6 mg

The tension in each cord is mg/6.

One star might appear brighter than another star because
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

A star's brightness also depends on its proximity to us. The more distant an object is, the dimmer it appears. Therefore, if two stars have the same level of brightness, but one is farther away, the closer star will appear brighter than the more distant star - even though they are equally bright!

Charlie Brown kicks a football at 24.5 m/s at 35.0. What is the maximum height of the ball?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

d = 10.076 m

Explanation:

We need to obtain the velocity of the ball in the y direction

Vy  = 24.5m/s * sin(35) = 14.053 m/s

To obtain the distance, we use the formula

vf^2 = v0^2 -2*g*d

but vf = 0

d = -vo^2/2g

d = (14.053)^2/2*(9.8) = 10.076 m

A 2.2 kg box is sliding along a frictionless horizontal surface with a speed of 1.8 m/s when it encounters a spring. (a) Determi
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

a) k = 2851.2\,\frac{N}{m}, b) v = 0.54\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) According to the Principle of Energy Conservation, the kinetic energy of the box is transformed into elastic potential energy.

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (2.2\,kg)\cdot (1.8\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot (0.05\,m)^{2}

The spring constant is:

k = 2851.2\,\frac{N}{m}

b) The initial speed needed to compress the spring by 1.5 centimeters is:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (2.2\,kg)\cdot v^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (2851.2\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (0.015\,m)^{2}

v = 0.54\,\frac{m}{s}
