Answer:
(A) FM Radio had a somewhat shorter ranger than AM radio, but better sound quality.
Explanation:
FM Radio was invented in 1933 by Edwin Armstrong who was an American engineer. FM stands for frequency modulation and AM stands for Amplitude Modulation.
FM is used for most broadcasts of music and FM radio stations use a very high-frequency range of radio frequencies.
In FM Radio, the sound is transmitted through changes in frequency. Both FM and AM radio signals experience frequent change in amplitude, they are far less noticeable on FM.
When switching between stations, FM antenna is alternating between different frequencies, and not amplitudes and this produces a much clearer sound and allows for smoother transitions with little to no audible static.
FM signals can be interfered by barriers and this could affect the signal strength. FM Radio signals are more clearer in a mountainous area that has no barrier.
AM radio was able to carry signals farther than AM radio.
The center of mass is given with this formula:

Velocity is:

So, for the velocity of the center of mass we have:

In our case it is:
Answer:
0.5 m/s²
Explanation:
according to Newton's second law, we are goven a relationship between force, mass and acceleration, with the formula:
F = m×a
F for force
m for mass
a for acceleration
we use the given data and get:
20 = 40×a
we find a=20/40=0.5m/s²
Answers:
a) -2.54 m/s
b) -2351.25 J
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum
must be equal to the final momentum
:
(1)
Where:
(2)
(3)
is the mass of the first football player
is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)
is the mass of the second football player
is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)
is the final velocity of both football players
With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:
a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):
(4)
Isolating
:
(5)
(6)
(7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south
b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player
The change in Kinetic energy
is defined as:
(8)
Simplifying:
(9)
(10)
Finally:
(10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision
