The answer is Resonance. Think of the bass on a speaker and if you place a glass of water onto a table or flat surface, it will start to vibrate/ shake because of the musics beats bass.
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight = 280 lbs
Height = 60 ft
Power = 3.50 hp
(a). We need to calculate the work done by the boom on the fireman
Using formula of work done


Put the value into the formula




The work done by the boom is 21.59 Btu.
(b). We know that,
1 hp = 550 ft lbf
So, 

We need to calculate the time
Using formula of time

Put the value into the formula


The time is 8.7 sec.
Hence, This is the required solution.
Answer:
I think d. is the answer I'm not conform
Answer:

Explanation:
Given data
Ball one
mass m₁=3.0kg
velocity v₁=20 m/s
Ball second
mass m₂=2.0 kg
velocity v₂=12 m/s
First we need the speed of combined ball.Since the system conserves the linear momentum

So the combined velocity vt is:

Since the two balls 1 and 2 are moving in opposite direction
So

Substitute the given values

We have the equation for motion with constant acceleration is given by:

At initial position y₀=0 and vt=v-v₀
So
