If both waves have the same wavelength, then the amplitude of
their sum could be anything between 1 cm and 9 cm, depending
on the phase angle between them.
If the waves have different wavelengths, then the resultant is a beat
with an amplitude of 9 cm.
You are running at constant velocity in the x direction, and based on the 2D definition of projectile motion, Vx=Vxo. In other words, your velocity in the x direction is equal to the starting velocity in the x direction. Let's say the total distance in the x direction that you run to catch your own ball is D (assuming you have actual values for Vx and D). You can then use the range equation, D= (2VoxVoy)/g, to find the initial y velocity, Voy. g is gravitational acceleration, -9.8m/s^2. Now you know how far to run (D), where you will catch the ball (xo+D), and the initial x and y velocities you should be throwing the ball at, but to find the initial velocity vector itself (x and y are only the components), you use the pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse. Because you know all three sides of the triangle, you can also solve for the angle you should throw the ball at, as that is simply arctan(y/x).
Answer: 13.94 tons/s
Explanation:
On adding heat energy to a substance, the temperature would be changed by a particular amount. This relationship between heat energy and temperature is often different for each material. The specific heat, is a value that describes how they relate.
Heat energy = mass flow rate * specific heat * Δ T
Q = MC (ΔΦ)
Heat energy, Q= 3.5*10^8J
Mass flow rate, M= ?
Specific heat, C= 4184j/KgC
Change in temperature, ΔΦ= 6°C
M = Q/CΔΦ
M = (3.5*10^8)/4184*6
M = 13942kg/s
M = 13.94 tons/s
In order to overcome an object’s inertia (resistance to change), it must be acted upon by an unbalanced force, so the answer to the problem is letter C.
