Answer:

100m

Explanation:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$

u=0;t=10sec;a=2m/s²

$s = 0(10) + \frac{1}{2}(2 \times {10}^{2} )$

s=10²;100m

ehidna [41]

A point source is to be used with a concave mirror to produce a beam of parallel light. The source should be placed midway between the center of curvature and the mirror. To solve this question you have to draw a ray diagram. Apply the mirror equation to determine the image distance and finally make sure that the first two steps are consistent with each other.

Consider the following four objects: a hoop, a solid sphere, a flat disk, a hollow sphere. Each of the objects has mass M and ra

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Hoop.

Explanation:

The angular acceleration performed at a given torque:

$\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}$

The moments of inertia of each element are described below:

Hoop

$I = M\cdot R^{2}$

Solid sphere

$I = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}$

Flat disk

$I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}$

Hollow sphere

$I = \frac{2}{3}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}$

The greater the moment of inertia, the greater the torque to obtain the same angular acceleration. Therefore, the hoop requires the largest torque to receive the same angular acceleration.

A 800hz tuning fork is vibrating, producing a sound wave in the air.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The frequency of the sound wave is 800Hz

The speed of sound in a is about 340m/s.

Velocity = frequency x wavelength

making wavelength the subject formula

wavelength = Velocity/frequency.

wavelength = 340/800

wavelength = 0.425m.

Answer:

Explanation:

Hi there,

To get started, recall the kinematic equations from either a textbook, equation sheet, etc. Kinematic equations are used when acceleration is <em>constant,</em> as stated in the prompt.

Best way to use kinematic equations is to see which variable you are looking for, then which variable is unknown to you and is not needed for that equation.

a) average velocity

Takes the form of:

$v_a_v_g=\frac{d_t_o_t_a_l}{t}=\frac{v+v_0}{2}$ this is the literal definition of average velocity; initial plus final divided by 2.

We know total displacement and total time elapsed, so we will use the middle form of the equation:

$v_a_v_g=\frac{1640m}{40s}=41 \ m/s$

b) the final velocity

We can still use the average velocity formula, as the other two equations that include final velocity have acceleration variable which is unknown as of now.

Solve for final velocity:

$v=(2v_a_v_g)-v_o = 2(41 \ m/s) - (8 m/s) = 74 m/s\\$ this makes sense, since a velocity later in time is higher than a velocity earlier in time. It is increasing with increasing time because of acceleration.

c) the acceleration

There are two equations that can be used to solve this, but we will use the less time-consuming one, but both produce same answer:

$a = \frac{v-v_0}{t_t_o_t_a_l} = \frac{(74-8)m/s}{40s} =1.65 m/s^{2}$

Notice, change in velocity over change in time, and acceleration is constant. When acceleration is constant, it models a linear function, and acc. is just slope!

Study well and persevere. If you liked this solution, hit Thanks or give a rating!
