A) The answer is 11.53 m/s

The final kinetic energy (KEf) is the sum of initial kinetic energy (KEi) and initial potential energy (PEi).
KEf = KEi + PEi

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KEf = 1/2 m * vf²
KEi = 1/2 m * vi²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PEi = m * a * h

So:
KEf = KEi + <span>PEi
</span>1/2 m * vf² =  1/2 m * vi² + m * a * h
..
Divide all sides by m:
1/2 vf² =  1/2 vi² + a * h

We know:
vi = 9.87 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
h = 1.81 m

1/2 vf² =  1/2 * 9.87² + 9.8 * 1.81
1/2 vf² = 48.71 + 17.74
1/2 vf² = 66.45
vf² = 66.45 * 2
vf² = 132.9
vf = √132.9
vf = 11.53 m/s


b) The answer is 6.78 m

The kinetic energy at the bottom (KE) is equal to the potential energy at the highest point (PE)
KE = PE

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KE = 1/2 m * v²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PE = m * a * h

KE = PE
1/2 m * v² = m * a * h

Divide both sides by m:
1/2 * v² = a * h
v = 11.53 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s² 
h = ?

1/2 * 11.53² = 9.8 * h
1/2 * 132.94 = 9.8 * h
66.47 = 9.8 * h
h = 66.47 / 9.8
h = 6.78 m

An earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth. A P-wave travels at 9 000 m/s a
Cerrena [4.2K]

Assuming constant speeds, the P-wave covers a distance <em>d</em> in time <em>t</em> such that

9000 m/s = <em>d</em>/(60 <em>t</em>)

while the S-wave covers the same distance after 1 more minute so that

5000 m/s = <em>d</em>/(60(<em>t</em> + 1))

Now,

<em>d</em> = 540,000 <em>t</em>

<em>d</em> = 300,000(<em>t</em> + 1) = 300,000 <em>t</em> + 300,000

Solve for <em>t</em> in the first equation and substitute it into the second equation, then solve for <em>d</em> :

<em>t</em> = <em>d</em>/540,000

<em>d</em> = 300,000/540,000 <em>d</em> + 300,000

4/9 <em>d</em> = 300,000

<em>d</em> = 675,000

So the earthquake center is 675,000 m away from the seismic station.

Energy from the Sun arrives at the top of the Earth's atmosphere with an intensity of 1.36 kW/m 2 . How long does it take for 3.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The time taken by 3.55\times 10^9\ J to arrive on an area of 4.25\ m^2 is 6.14\times 10^5\ seconds.

Explanation:

Given the intensity of the energy is 1.36\ kW/m^2

And the arriving energy is 3.55\times 10^9\ J

Also, the area in which energy is being arriving is 4.25\ m^2

Now, we will use relation between energy (E), intensity of energy (p), area (A) and time (T).

Where energy is in Joule, intensity is in kW/m^2, area is in m^2 and time is in seconds.

The equation is

E=pAT\\\\T=\frac{E}{pA}\\\\T=\frac{3.55\times 10^9}{1.36\times 10^3\times 4.25}\\\\T=0.614\times 10^6\ s\\T=6.14\times 10^5\ seconds

So, the time taken by 3.55\times 10^9\ J to arrive on an area of 4.25\ m^2 is 6.14\times 10^5\ seconds.

You use a wedge that has a width of 1.1 in and a slope length of 3.3 in. What
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

D. 3

Explanation:

First of all the mechanical advantage of a wedge is defined as the ratio of its slope length to its width.

Mathematically,

IMA = \frac{L}{W}

where,

IMA= Mechanical Advantage

L= slope length, and

w= width.

Given that,

slope length, L= 3.3 inches, and

width ,W= 1.1 inches

Then,

Mechanical Advantage, IMA

=  \frac{3.3}{1.1} = 3
