S= 343m/s
F=256Hz

WL= 343ms/256-1
WL=V/F

 = 1.339844m

A bowling ball has an initial momentum of +30 kg m/s and hits a stationary bowling pin. After the collision, the bowling ball le
dangina [55]

Momentum should be conserved. The momentum of both objects must balance with their initial and final momentum.

Let m1 and v1 be the mass and velocity of the bowling ball

And m2 and v2 be the mass and velocity of the bowling pin

(m1v1)i + (m2v2)i = (m1v1)f + (m2v2)f

30 kg m/s + (1.5 kg)(0 m/s) = 13kg m/s + 1.5v2f

V2f = 11.33 m/s

<span>So the momentum = 1.5 kg(11.33 m/s) = 17 kg m/s</span>

A satellite is in a circular orbit 8200 km above the Earth’s surface; i.e., it moves on a circular path under the influence of n
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

5.23km/s

Explanation:

Given

Radius of Earth = 6.37 * 10^6 m

Altitude of Satellite = 8200km = 8200 * 10³m = 8.2 * 10^6 m

Gravity Acceleration on Satellite Altitude = 1.87965m/s²

For a satellite to remain in circular orbit, then it means the acceleration of gravity must be exact as the centripetal acceleration.

Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R

So, Acceleration of Gravity (A)= Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R

Make V the subject of formula

A = V²/R

V² = AR

V = √AR

Where R = (radius of earth) + (altitude of satellite)

R = 6.37 * 10^6 + 8.2 * 10^6

R = 14.57 * 10^6m

A = 1.87965m/s²

V = √(1.87965 * 14.57x10^6)

V = √27386500.5

V = 5233.211299001789

V = 5233.2113 m/s ------- Approximated

V = 5.23km/s

On both the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun's rays are vertically overhead at the _______
Anni [7]

It is overhead at the equator, it is because the sun ray’s will be moving vertically as this will be directed at the equator. It is because if it moves vertically, it will hit or overhead the equator and this usually happens in spring and fall.

Which of the following statements best describes the second law of
Serga [27]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Heat flows from hot to cold to lower the temperature of hot areas and increase temperature of cold areas. The end result is that the 2 areas have the same temperature, thus increasing entropy.

When atoms of an element are excited, they emit specific wavelengths of light. How is this similar to a fingerprint when Fraunho
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you may know, each element has a "fixed" number of protons and electrons.

These electrons live in elliptical orbits around the nucleus, called valence levels or energy levels.

We know that as further away are the orbits from the nucleus, the more energy has the electrons in it. (And those energies are fixed)

Now, when an electron jumps from a level to another, there is also a jump in energy, and that jump depends only on the levels, then the jump in energy is fixed.

Particularly, when an electron jumps from a more energetic level to a less energetic one, that change in energy must be compensated in some way, and that way is by radiating a photon whose energy is exactly the same as the energy of the jump.

And the energy of a photon is related to the wavelength of the photon, then we can conclude that for a given element, the possible jumps of energy levels are known, meaning that the possible "jumps in energy" are known, which means that the wavelengths of the radiated photons also are known. Then by looking at the colors of the bands (whose depend on the wavelength of the radiated photons) we can know almost exactly what elements are radiating them.
