Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes its speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per seco

Answer: Average acceleration is -2.407 $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

Average acceleration is equal to change in velocity divided by time taken

therefore, $a=\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

=> $a=\frac{37-89}{6}\times \frac{5}{18}\frac{m}{s^{2}} = -2.407 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Answer:

Range = 22.61 m

Explanation:

We can use the formula for the Range in flat ground, given by:

$Range=v_i^2\frac{sin(2\theta)}{g}$

which for our case renders:

$Range=15^2\frac{sin(80^o)}{9.8} \approx 22.61\,\,m$

With no given information, we have no way to even guess at

A uniform, 4.5 kg, square, solid wooden gate 2.0 mm on each side hangs vertically from a frictionless pivot at the center of its

True [87]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w = 1.43\ rad/sec$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of wooden gate is $m_g = 4.5 kg$

The length of side is L = 2 m

The mass of the raven is $m_r = 1.2 kg$

The initial speed of the raven is $u_r = 5.0m/s$

The final speed of the raven is $v_r = 1.5 m/s$

From the law of conservation of angular momentum we express this question mathematically as

Total initial angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate = The Final angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate

The initial angular momentum of the Raven is $m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}$

Note: the length is half because the Raven hit the gate at the mid point

The initial angular momentum of the Gate is zero

Note: This above is the generally formula for angular momentum of square objects

The final angular velocity of the Raven is $m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}$

The final angular velocity of the Gate is $\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w$

Substituting this formula

$m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w + m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w = m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2} - m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w = m_r * \frac{L}{2} * [u_r - v_r]$

Where $w$ is the angular velocity

Substituting value

$\frac{1}{3} (4.5)(2)^2 w = 1.2 * \frac{2}{2} * [5 - 1.5]$

$6w = 4.2$

$w = \frac{6}{4.2}$

$w = 1.43\ rad/sec$

Light with a frequency of 7.30 x 1014 hz lies in the violet region of the visible spectrum. What is the wavelength of this frequ

Leona [35]

From the theory we know that:

c = λ / T

f = 1 / T

Where:

c = 3. $10^{8}$ / m (the speed of light)

λ is the wavelengh (in meters)

T is the period (in seconds)

f is the frequency (in Hz)

We were told that:

f = 7.30 . $10^{14}$

And we want to find out the value of λ.

c = λ / T

c = λ . 1/T

Swaping 1/T = f

c = λ . f

λ = c / f

λ = 3 . $10^{8}$ / 7.30 . $10^{14}$

λ = 4.12 $10^{-7}$ m

Response: 4.12 $10^{-7}$ m = 412 nm
