B

Assume north and east as two sides of a right angled triangle. magnitude of the distance is then given by the length of the hypotenuse which is \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}

where a = 1.2 km north

and b = 1.6 km east

magnitude = 2 km

Direction is given by the angle between them, that is atan(a/b) = 36.86 deg north of east = 53.1 deg east of north.

An open pipe of length 0.39 m vibrates in the third harmonic with a frequency of 1400 Hz what is the distance from the center of
Svetach [21]

Length of the pipe = 0.39 m

Number of harmonics = 3

Now there are 3 loops so here we can say

3\times \frac{\lambda}{2} = 0.39

\lambda = 0.26 m

now here at the center of the pipe it will form Node

we need to find the distance of nearest antinode

So distance between node and its nearest antinode will be

d = \frac{\lambda}{4}

d = \frac{0.26}{4} = 0.065 m = 6.5 cm

So the distance will be 6.5 cm

A ball is tossed straight up from the surface of a small, spherical asteroid with no atmosphere. The ball rises to a height equa
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

d. equal to one-fourth the acceleration at the surface of the asteroid.

Explanation:

The explanation is attached as a picture with this answer

Newton's law of universal gravitation is being used to compare the accelerations at the surface and at the top of the ball's path.

as it can be seen in the explanation that the proportional form of the equation is used because we do not need to necessarily use to final form with "G" for comparison calculations.

As per the given scenario only difference between the two points in the gravitational field is the distance from center of the spherical asteroid, i.e. r.

It is  taken 2r for the top is the path. hence we obtain (1/4)g as our answer.

What happens in the gray zone between solid and liquid?
Reil [10]

Answer:

Hence from liquid to solid or solid to liquid the transition has to cross the grey zone. This grey zone transition is is very crucial which includes the intermolecular forces acting on the molecules and each atoms which makes the change in state from hot to cold and cold to hot.

6. Draw a velocity-time graph for an object originally traveling at -3 m/s. The object
faltersainse [42]

See the graph in attachment

Explanation:

In this problem we have to draw a velocity-time graph for an object travelling initially at -3 m/s, then slowing down and turning around.

In the graph, we see that the initial velocity at time t = 0 is

v_0 = -3 m/s

and it is negative, so below the x-axis.

Later, the object slows down: this means that the magnitude of its velocity increases, therefore (since the velocity is negative) the curve must go upward, approaching and reaching the x-axis (which corresponds to zero velocity).

After that, the object's velocity keep increasing, but now it is positive: this means that the object is travelling in a direction opposite to the initial direction, so it has turned around.
