25.5 m/s in 5.75 s. What is the acceleration?

Physics

Acceleration units are in m/s^2 , so you take 25.5 m/s divided by 5.75s. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity :)

A freight car moves along a friction less level railroad track at constant speed. The car is open on top. A large load of coal i
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the freight car decreases.

Explanation:

This question is answered by the conservation of momentum principle.

When the freight car is moving at a certain speed, it has a constant momentum.

We will call this M1.

The equation for M1 will be:

M1 = Mass * Speed

Now when the coal is dumped into the freight car, the Mass increases.

Since conservation of momentum states that the momentum will remain the same. We have:

M1 = (Mass of freight + Mass of coal) * Speed

Since M1 is constant, if the mass increases, the speed had to decrease to keep the equation true.

By what factor must the amplitude of a sound wave be decreased in order to decrease the intensity by a factor of 3?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Amplitude is decreased by a factor of \sqrt3 if intensity is decreased by a factor of 3.

Explanation:

Intensity of a sound wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

Therefore, if intensity is I and amplitude is A, then

I=kA^2, where, k is constant of proportionality.

Now, if intensity of sound wave is decreased by a factor of 3. So,

New intensity is, I_{new}=\frac{I}{3}

I_{new}=kA_{new}^2\\\frac{I}{3}=kA_{new}^2

Plug in kA^2 for I. This gives,

\frac{kA^2}{3}=kA_{new}^2\\A_{new}^2=\frac{A^2}{3}\\A_{new}=\sqrt{\frac{A^2}{3}}=\frac{A}{\sqrt{3}}

Therefore, amplitude is decreased by a factor of \sqrt3.

The image shows the positions of a car on a roller coaster track. Arrange the cars in order based on their gravitational potenti
RideAnS [48]

Correct order, from lowest potential energy to highest potential energy:

E - C - D - B - A

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the car is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the car's mass

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the car relative to the ground

In the formula, we see that m and g are constant, so the potential energy of the car depends only on its height above the ground, h. The higher the car from the ground, the larger its potential energy. Therefore, the position with least potential energy will be E, since the height is the minimum. Then, C will have more potential energy, because the car is at higher position, and so on: the position with greatest potential energy is A, because the height of the car is maximum.
