Answer:

D. Pressure increases with increasing depth

Explanation:

The mathematical expression of pressure is defined as

Pressure = density x gravity x height.

From the expressions, pressure is directly proportional to height. So, the deeper you go the greater the pressure.

Two trains are traveling on the same track and in the same direction. The first train, which is behind the second train, blows a
Andrews [41]

Answer:

37.545 m/s

Explanation:

f' = Actual frequency of horn = 269 Hz

f = Observed frequency of horn = 290 Hz

v = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

v_0 = Speed of second train = 13.7 m/s

v_s = Speed of first train

From Doppler effect we have

f=f'\dfrac{v-v_0}{v-v_s}\\\Rightarrow v_s=v-\dfrac{f'}{f}(v-v_0)\\\Rightarrow v_s=343-\dfrac{269}{290}(343-13.7)\\\Rightarrow v_s=37.545\ m/s

The speed of the first train is 37.545 m/s

Which statement is true?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.

Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.

On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

1. v = 6.67 m/s

2. d = 9.54 m

Explanation:

1. To find the horizontal velocity of the rock we need to use the following equation:

d = v*t \rightarrow v = \frac{d}{t}    

<u>Where</u>:

d: is the distance traveled by the rock

t: is the time

The time can be calculated as follows:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}}

<u>Where:</u>

g: is gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*7 m}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.20 s

Now, the horizontal velocity of the rock is:

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8 m}{1.20 s} = 6.67 m/s      

Hence, the initial velocity required to barely reach the edge of the shell below you is 6.67 m/s.          

2. To calculate the distance at which the projectile will land, first, we need to find the time:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(7 m + 3 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s

So, the distance is:

d = v*t = 6.67 m/s*1.43 s = 9.54 m    

Therefore, the projectile will land at 9.54 m of the second cliff.

I hope it helps you!
