A would be the wavelength, C would be a crest, D would be the amplitude, leaving B which is the trough.

Answer: B. B

Explanation:

The trough is B because it is the "minimum" amplitude of a wave since amplitude is D which is the displacement of wave from its initial position. The minimum value of the amplitude will be at B which is the trough.

Note that the maximum value of the amplitude will be the crest which at C.

A 1090 kg car has four 12.7 kg wheels. When the car is moving, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to ro

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

$\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = 0.018$

Explanation:

To develop this exercise we proceed to use the kinetic energy equations,

In the end we replace

$KE_{Total}=KE_{Translational}+KE_{Rotational}$

$KE_{Total}=\frac{1}{2}m_{car}+4*\frac{1}{2}*I*(\frac{v}{r})^2$

Here

$I=\frac{1}{2}m_{wheels}*r^2$ meaning the 4 wheels,

So replacing

$KE_{Rotational}=4\frac{1}{2}*(\frac{1}{2}m_{wheels}*r^2)*(\frac{v}{r})^2=m*v^2$

So,

$\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = \frac{m_{wheels}*v^2}{\frac{1}{2}m_{car}*v^2+m_{wheels}*v^2}$

$\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = \frac{m_{wheels}}{\frac{1}{2}m_{car}+m_{wheels}}$

$\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = \frac{10}{545+10}$

$\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = 0.018$
