Two soccer players, mary and jane, begin running from approximately the same point at the same time. mary runs in an easterly di

rection at 3.59 m/s, while jane takes off in a direction 42.8 ◦ north of east at 4.67 m/s. what is the magnitude of the velocity of jane relative to mary?

As you illustrate the problem, you may come up with the same diagram as the one shown in the attached picture. The relative velocity is the linear velocity between the two velocities. This is calculated by simply finding the difference of their velocities. Since, the velocity is with respect to Jane relative to Mary, the solution is as follows:

Relative velocity = Velocity of Jane - Velocity of Mary
Relative Velocity = 4.67 m/s - 3.59 m/s = 1.08 m/s

A simple experiment to measure the speed of sound doesn't involve a stopwatch. You can fill up along tube with water and put a t
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this problem you have to know the depth of the column, we say R, this information is important because allows you to compute some harmonic of the tube. With this information you can compute the depth of the colum of air, by taking tino account that the new depth is R-L.

To find the fundamental mode you use:

f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}

n: mode of the sound

vs: sound speed

L: length of the column of air in the tube.

A) The fundamental mode id obtained for n=1:

f_1=\frac{v_s}{4L}

B) For the 3rd harmonic you have:

f_3=\frac{3v_s}{4L}

C) For the 2nd harmonic:

f_2=\frac{2v_s}{4L}

An ideal air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has round plates and carries a fixed amount of equal but opposite charge on its pla
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The new energy density is same as initial energy density u0 as it is independent of plate dimensions

Explanation:

As we know that energy density is total energy per unit volume

so we know that isolated plates of capacitor is placed here

C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

here we have energy density given as

u = \frac{Q^2}{2(\epsilon_0 A/d)} Ad

so we have

u = \frac{Q^2d^2}{2\epsilon_0}

so it is independent of the dimensions of the plate while total charge on the plates is constant always

so energy density will not change and remains the same

The velocity of a 10.0 kg object that has 720 J of kinetic energy is m/s. (Report the answer to two significant figures.)
nikdorinn [45]
Kinetic energy<span> is the </span>energy<span> of motion. An object that has motion - whether it is vertical or horizontal motion - has </span>kinetic energy<span>. It is expressed as:

KE = mv^2 /2

720 = 10.0v^2 /2
v = 12 m/s

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

proton is accelerated to a speed of 0.93c, what is the 1. A proton has a mass of 1.673 x 10-27 kg. If the proton is accelerated
coldgirl [10]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 1.3\times 10^{-18}kg.m/s

Explanation : Given,

Mass of proton = 1.673\times 10^{-27}kg

Speed of proton = 0.93 c

Formula used for relativistic momentum of the proton is:

p=\frac{m_ov}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}

where,

p = relativistic momentum of the proton

m_o = mass of proton

v = speed of proton

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

p=\frac{(1.673\times 10^{-27}kg)\times (0.93c)}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.93c)^2}{c^2}}}

p=\frac{(1.55589\times 10^{-27}c)}{0.367}

p=\frac{(1.55589\times 10^{-27})\times (3\times 10^8)}{0.367}

p=1.272\times 10^{-18}kg.m/s\approx 1.3\times 10^{-18}kg.m/s

Therefore, the relativistic momentum of the proton is, 1.3\times 10^{-18}kg.m/s
