A sound whispered at one focus of a whispering gallery can be heard at the other focus. Two people are standing in a whispering

gallery whose cross section is a semielliptical arch with a height of 28 feet and a width of 90 feet. How far from the room's center should they stand so that they can whisper back and forth and be heard?

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

I = F*t

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

I = p

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

p=m(v_1-v_2)

p = 75*0.15

p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

F(0.025)= 1125

F= 45000N

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N

What is it called when velocity changes over time
natka813 [3]
Well,

When an object's velocity changes, we call it acceleration.

Acceleration: The time rate of change in an object's velocity

Two long, straight wires are separated by a distance of 9.15 cm . One wire carries a current of 2.79 A , the other carries a cur
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The force is the same

Explanation:

The force per meter exerted between two wires carrying a current is given by the formula

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_2}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I_1 is the current in the 1st wire

I_2 is the current in the 2nd wire

r is the separation between the wires

In this problem

I_1=2.79 A\\I_2=4.36 A\\r = 9.15 cm = 0.0915 m

Substituting, we find the force per unit length on the two wires:

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(2.79)(4.36)}{2\pi (0.0915)}=2.66\cdot 10^{-5}N

However, the formula is the same for the two wires: this means that the force per meter exerted on the two wires is the same.

The same conclusion comes out  from Newton's third law of motion, which states that when an object A exerts a force on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (action-reaction). If we apply the law to this situation, we see that the force exerted by wire 1 on wire 2 is the same as the force exerted by wire 2 on wire 1 (however the direction is opposite).

A roller coaster car speed is 4 m/s, but 3 seconds later its speed is 22 m/s. What is its average acceleration?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The velocity increased from 4 m/s to 22 m/s in 3 seconds. 18 m/s in 3 seconds so the average acceleration is change in velocity divided by time. 18 m/s divided by 3 seconds = 6 m/s^2
