sound travels through air at around 340 - 350 m/s.

to cover 52 meters takes it, say, (52/345) = about 0.15 second

This would be the same time-lag even if it were not a major-league game,
except that you might not be able to get a seat 52 meters from home plate
at a little league or t-ball game.

A pickup truck and a hatchback car start at the same position. If the truck is moving at a constant 33.9m/s and the hatchback ca
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

s = 589.3 m

Explanation:

Let the truck and car meet at a distance = s  m

The truck is moving at constant velocity = v

so s= v * t ---------- (1)

car:

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 3.9 m/s²

s = Vi* t + 1/2 a t²

s= 0 * t +  1/2 a t²

s =  1/2 a t²   ----------- (2)

compare equation (1)  and equation (2)

s= v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ t = 2 * v/ a

⇒ t = (2 * 33.9 )/ 3.9

⇒ t = 17. 38 s

Now

from equation (1)

s= v * t

s= 33.9 * 17.38

⇒ s = 589.3 m

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}    .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}    .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz

A ball of mass 0.150 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.665 m. W
Liula [17]

Answer:

Impulse is 1.239 kg.m/s in upward direction

Explanation:

Taking upward motion as positive and downward motion as negative.

Downward motion:

Given:

Mass of ball (m) = 0.150 kg

Displacement of ball (S) = -1.25 m

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration is due to gravity (g) = -9.8 m/s²

Using equation of motion, we have:

v_d^2=u^2+2aS\\\\v=\pm\sqrt{u^2+2aS}\\\\v_d=\pm\sqrt{0+2\times -9.8\times -1.25}\\\\v_d=\pm\sqrt{24.5}=\pm4.95\ m/s

Since, the motion is downward, final velocity must be negative. So,

v_d=-4.95\ m/s

Upward motion:

Given:

Displacement of ball (S) = 0.665 m

Initial velocity (v_d) = 4.95 m/s(Upward direction)

Acceleration is due to gravity (g) = -9.8 m/s²

Using equation of motion, we have:

v_{up}^2=v_d^2+2aS\\\\v_{up}=\pm\sqrt{v_d^2+2aS}\\\\v_{up}=\pm\sqrt{24.5+2\times -9.8\times 0.665}\\\\v_{up}=\pm\sqrt{10.966}=\pm3.31\ m/s

Since, the motion is upward, final velocity must be positive. So,

v_{up}=3.31\ m/s

Now, impulse is equal to change in momentum. So,

Impulse = Final momentum - Initial momentum

J=m(v_{up}-v_d)\\\\J=(0.150\ kg)(3.31-(-4.95))\ m/s\\\\J=0.150\ kg\times 8.26\ m/s\\\\J=1.239\ Ns

Therefore, the impulse given to the ball by the floor is 1.239 kg.m/s in upward direction.
