Answer: c. 25.50%

Soil porosity refers to the amount of pores, or open spaces present between the soil particles. Soil porosity is an important property of soil. It allows the absorption of water and air through the particles of soil. The loose soil will have separated particles of soil hence, will have high porosity. The dense and compact soil particles will have less porosity because compaction decreases the pores inside the soil. Sand is a soil which has particles finer than gravel and coarser than silt. The particles of sand remains loose hence, it will exhibit particles of small grain size with low porosity and high drainage. Therefore, the porosity of sand sample is 25.50%.

-Surgen de una interacción.
-Nunca aparece una sola: son dos y simultáneas.
-Actúan sobre cuerpos diferentes: una en cada cuerpo.
-Nunca forman un par de fuerzas: tienen la misma línea de acción.
-Un cuerpo que experimenta una única interacción no está en equilibrio, pues sobre el aparece una fuerza unica que lo acelera. Para estar en equilibrio se requieren por lo menos dos interacciones.

A wheel rotates with a constant angular acceleration of  rad/s2. During a certain time interval its angular displacement is  r

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is $\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular acceleration $\alpha=\pi\ rad/s^2$

Angular displacement $\theta=\pi\ rad$

Angular velocity $\omega =2\pi\ rad/s$

We need to calculate the angular velocity at the beginning

Using formula of angular velocity

$\alpha =\dfrac{\omega^2-\omega_{0}^2}{2\theta}$

$\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2-2\alpha\theta$

Where, $\alpha$ = angular acceleration

$\omega$ = angular velocity

Put the value into the formula

$\omega_{0}^2=(2\pi)^2-2\times\pi\times\pi$

$\omega=\sqrt{2\pi^2}$

$\omega_{0}=\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$

Hence, The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is $\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$ .

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as,

$f = f_0 (\frac{v_0}{v_0-v})$
