A water-skier is moving at a speed of 12.0 m/s . When she skis in the same direction as a traveling wave, she springs upward eve

ry 0.600 s because of the wave crests. When she skis in the direction opposite to that in which the wave moves, she springs upward every 0.500 s in response to the crests. The speed of the skier is greater than the speed of the wave. Determine (a) the speed and (b) the wavelength of the wave.

A 0.500 kg ball is dropped from rest at a point 1.20 m above the floor. The ball rebounds straight upward to a height of 0.700 m
KatRina [158]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. With this we will find the speed before the impact. Through the kinematic equations of linear motion we will find the velocity after the impact.

Since the momentum is given as the product between mass and velocity difference, we will proceed with the velocities found to calculate it.

Part A) Conservation of the energy

mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

v_1 = \sqrt{2gh}

v_1 = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.20)}

v_1 = 4.84m/s

\therefore v_1 = -4.84/s \rightarrow \text{Negative direction downward}

Part B)  Kinematic equation of linear motion,

v_2^2 = u_0^2 +2a\Delta y

Here

v= 0 Because at 1.5m reaches highest point, so v=0

0 = u_2^2 +2(-9.8)(0.7)

u_2 = 3.7m/s

Therefore the velocity after the collision with the floor is 3.7m/s

PART C) Total change of impulse is given as,

J = P_2 -P_1

J = mU_2-mV_1

J = m(U_2-V_1)

J = (0.5)(3.7-(-4.84))

J = 4.27kg \cdot m/s \rightarrow \text{Upward because is positive}

Diagnostic ultrasound of frequency 4.50 MHz is used to examine tumors in soft tissue. (a) What is the wavelength in air of such
mafiozo [28]

(a) 7.62 \times 10^{-5} m is the wavelength in air of such a sound wave.

(b) 3.33 \times 10^{-4}\ m is the wavelength of this wave in tissue.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Frequency and wavelength can be related by the equation,

              Velocity = Wavelength x Frequency

              v=\lambda \times f

where,

v - velocity of light for all EM (electromagnetic) waves in vacuum

Given:

f - 4.50 MHz = 4.50 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{Hz}

a) To find the wavelength in air

We know,

Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

Apply given frequency and speed of sound in air, we get

        \lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343}{4.5 \times 10^{6}}=76.2 \times 10^{-6}=7.62 \times 10^{-5}\ \mathrm{m}

b) If the speed of sound in tissue is 1500 m/s, find the wavelength of this wave in tissue

Speed of sound in tissue, v = 1500 m/s

        \lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{1500}{4.5 \times 10^{6}}=333.33 \times 10^{-6}=3.33 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{m}

A rock is thrown downwards from the edge of the Grand Canyon. With
Olin [163]

Answer:

Vf = 28 m/s

Explanation:

In order to find the final velocity of the rock, we will use the 3rd equation of motion. The third equation of motion for vertical direction is written as follows:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height dropped = 40 m

Vf = final velocity of the rock = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity of the rock = 0 m/s (since, rock was initially at rest)

Therefore,

(2)(9.8 m/s²)(40 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(784 m²/s²)

<u>Vf = 28 m/s</u>
