The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "B.The small car has less momentum because its mass is less than the mass of the truck." A small car and a large truck are both driving south at 40 km/h. The statement that is true is that t<span>he small car has less momentum because its mass is less than the mass of the truck. </span>

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

Given:

u = 20 m/s

a = 5 m/s^2

v = 30 m/s

t = ?

Use the first kinematic equation of motion:

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/a = 10/5 = 2 seconds

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. What is the earth's angular speed? What is the speed of a point
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

a) w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

b) v1 = 463.1 m/s

c) v1 = 440.433 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The radius of the earth,  R = 6.37 * 10 ^6 m

- The time period for 1 revolution T = 24 hrs

Find:

What is the earth's angular speed?

What is the speed of a point on the equator?

What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 1/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator?

Solution:

- The angular speed w of the earth can be related with the Time period T of the earth revolution by:

                                  w = 2π / T

                                  w = 2π / 24*3600

                                  w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

- The speed of the point on the equator v1 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                                 v1 = R*w

                                 v1 = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                                 v1 = 463.1 m/s

- The angle θ subtended by a point on earth's surface 1/5 th between the equator and the pole wrt equator is.

                                 π/2  ........... s

                                 x     ............ 1/5 s

                                 x = π/2*5 = 18°    

- The radius of the earth R' at point where θ = 18° from the equator is:

                                R' = R*cos(18)

                                R' = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*cos(18)

                                R' = 6058230.0088 m

- The speed of the point where θ = 18° from the equator v2 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                              v2 = R'*w

                              v2 = (6058230.0088)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                              v2 = 440.433 m/s

The sound of a tuba is very low. Why?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

When you blow into a tuba the air vibrates very slowly.​

Explanation:

Tuba is a buzz instrument ie sound is produced in it with the help of lip vibration . It is the lowest pitched musical instrument in the brass family .

Due to absence of resonance in it , it produces music of lowest pitch , So when one blows into it the air column of the instrument vibrates very slowly producing low pitched sound.

What does special relativity reveal about the speed of light relative to its source?
Vladimir [108]

Regardless of the source's mobility, light travels at the same speed.

<h3>What makes special relativity so crucial?</h3>

In the calculating and interpretation of high-velocity phenomena, as well as on our methods of thinking, Einstein's special relativity has had a significant influence on the area of physics. Today, we have a considerably better knowledge of space and time than we did at the start of the century.

<h3>Why is special relativity thus named?</h3>

Because it exclusively uses inertial frames to apply the concept of relativity, the theory is known as "special". General relativity, which Einstein created, applies the principle broadly, that is, to any frame, and this theory takes the gravitational forces into account.
