Answer: 3.75 m

Explanation:

5 squirts in 1 second

So, 1 squirt in 1/5 second which is 0.2 second.

The difference in timing of two consecutive squirt is 0.2 second, so

time (t) = 0.2 s.

speed (s) = 15 m/s

Distance of separation (d) = ?

Now, formula for distance is

d = s × t

d = 15 × 0.2

d = 3.75 m

A perfectly elastic collision occurs between a 15.0-kg mass traveling at 3.50 m/s and a 9.00-kg mass traveling at 2.35 m/s. if t

BaLLatris [955]

Momentum is conserved in a collision. Momentum is mass*velocity, so you can find your answer by calculating initial and final momentums and setting them equal to each other.

15kg * 3.50 m/s + 9kg * 2.35 m/s = 73.65 kg m/s

73.65 = 9 * 2.8 + 15x

solve for x
x= 3.23

The final velocity is 3.23 m/s

A plane electromagnetic wave, with wavelength 5 m, travels in vacuum in the positive x direction with its electric vector E, of

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

E₀ = 229.1 V/m

E = E₀ / √2 = 229.1 / 1.414 = 162 V/m

B = E / c ( c is velocity of em waves )

= 162 / (3 x 10⁸) = 54 x 10⁻⁸ T

rate of energy flow = ( E x B ) / μ₀

= 162 x 54 x 10⁻⁸ / 4π x 10⁻⁷

= 69.65 W per m².

Two rocks of different masses are rolling down a hill at the same speed. Which rock (small one or big one) would have more kinet

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the rock is given by,

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}$

As velocity of both the rocks are same. Thus, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the rock

Kinetic energy ∝ mass

So, For greater mass kinetic energy will be greater and for smaller mass kinetic energy will be smaller.

Hence, Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.
