Answer:

option 4

Explanation:

Light's velocity in air ( 3 × 10^8 m/s ) is much greater than sound's velocity in air ( 343 m/s )

Hence due to difference in velocities , during lightning light is seen first & sound is heard later

A 23 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 130 m/s when, due to an internal exp

babymother [125]

Answer:

a) Vx = 1088m/s

b) Vy = -162.93m/s

c) 5246745J

Explanation:

Mass of unbroken body = 23kg

Its velocity along +ve X-axis = 130m/s

Mass of first broken body, m1= 9.4kg

Its velocity along +ve X-axis = 130m/s

Nass of 2nd broken body, m2 = 6.1kg

Its velocity long-lived X - axis = -550m/s

Mass of 3rd broken body = ?

m3 = (23 - 9.4 - 6.1)kg

m3 = 7.5kg

Let velocity along the x-axis = Vx

Let the velocity along the x-axis = Vy

Applying law of conservation of momentum along x-axis

a) m1×0 + m2×(-550) + m3×(Vx) =M × 130

9.4 × 0 + 6.1× (-550) + 7.5(Vx) = 23 ×130

0 + (-5170) + 7.5Vx = 2990

2990 + 5170 = 7.5Vx

8160 = 7.5Vx

Vx = 8160/7.5

Vx = 1088m/s

b) Aplying conservation of momentum along the x-axis

(m1×130) + (m2 × 0) + (m3× Vy) = 0

(9.4 × 130) + (6.1 ×550) + 7.5Vy = 0

1222 + 0 + 7.5Vy = 0

1222 = -7.5Vy

Vy = 1222/(-7.5)

Vy = -262.93m/s

c) The energy released or change in KE is given by:

1/2[(m1v1^2) + (m2v2^2) +(m3Vx^2) ]= MV^2

Change in KE = 1/2[ 9.4× 130^2 + 6.1 × 550^2 + 7.5 × 1088^2 ] - 1/2(23 × 130^2)

Change in KE = 1/2[158860 + 1845250 + 8878080] - 1/2[388700]

Change in KE = 5441095 - 194350

Change in KE = 5246745J

Four equal masses m are so small they can be treated as points, and they are equallyspaced along a long, stiff mass less wire. T

gavmur [86]

The moment of inertia of a point mass about an arbitrary point is given by:

I = mr²

I is the moment of inertia

m is the mass

r is the distance between the arbitrary point and the point mass

The center of mass of the system is located halfway between the 2 inner masses, therefore two masses lie ℓ/2 away from the center and the outer two masses lie 3ℓ/2 away from the center.

The total moment of inertia of the system is the sum of the moments of each mass, i.e.

I = ∑mr²

The moment of inertia of each of the two inner masses is

I = m(ℓ/2)² = mℓ²/4

The moment of inertia of each of the two outer masses is

I = m(3ℓ/2)² = 9mℓ²/4

The total moment of inertia of the system is

I = 2[mℓ²/4]+2[9mℓ²/4]

I = mℓ²/2+9mℓ²/2

I = 10mℓ²/2

I = 5mℓ²

In the national grid,what does the step up transformer do?

amm1812

In the National Grid, the Step Up Transformer increases the amount of voltage that is passing through the grid at any one time. These are used at power stations, as without them, there would not be enough power to transport the electricity around the national grid.
Hope this helps :)

A baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high The carriage with the baby weighs 12 N

WITCHER [35]

Answer:E

252

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of an object or system is given by:

Where

is the kinetic energy of the object and

is the potential energy of the object. The carriage, sitting motionless at the top of the hill, has only potential energy in the form of gravitational potential energy.

Gravitational potential energy is given by:

Where

is the mass of the object,

is the gravitational acceleration constant, and

is the height of the object above some specific reference point, in this case the ground

below.

The weight of a stationary object at the surface of the earth is equal to the force of gravity acting on the object.
