A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista

nce they both would reach the ground at the same time. The reason for this is that the force on each ball is the same.True / False.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.

Wave motion is characterized by two velocities: the velocity with which the wave moves in the medium (e.g., air or a string) and
Sindrei [870]

Answer: a) v = ω /k, b) v = - ωAcos( kx −ωt)

Explanation:

y(x,t)=Asin(kx−ωt) defines the wave equation.

a)

We are asked to find wave speed (v)

Recall that v = fλ

From the wave equation above,

k = 2π/ λ where k is the wave number and λ is the wavelength, λ = 2π /k

ω = 2πf where f is the frequency and ω is the angular frequency.

f = ω/ 2π.

By substituting for λ and ω into the wave speed formulae, we have that

v =( ω/ 2π) × (2π /k)

v = ω/k

b)

y(x,t)=Asin(kx−ωt)

The first derivative of y with respect to x give the velocity (vy)

By using chain rule, we have that

v = dy/dt = A cos( kx −ωt) × (−ω)

v = - ωAcos( kx −ωt)

Look at the image of a salad with chicken on a counter top .in which direction is the thermal energy moving?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Well,

Explanation:

In this image, the thermal energy could be going both in an upwards and downwards direction. The chicken passes thermal energy to the salad under it. But at the same time, it is releasing smoke upwards, meaning it is also releasing thermal energy upwards.

Answer:

a) P1=100kpa

V1=6m³

V2=?

P2=50kpa

rearranging mathematically the expression for Boyle's law

V2=(P1V1)/P2=(100×6)/50=12m³

b) same apartment as in (a) but only the value of P2 changes

=> V2=(100×6)/40=15m³

Explanation:

since temperature is not changing we use Boyle's law. mathematically expressed as P1V1=P2V2
