A busy chipmunk runs back and forth along a straight line of acorns that has been set out between his burrow and a nearby tree.

At some instant the chipmunk moves with a velocity of -1.15 m/s. Then, 2.11 s later, it moves at a velocity of 1.63 m/s. What is the chipmunk's average acceleration during the 2.11-s time interval in m/s^2?

Answer: a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change in the velocity per time

a = change in velocity/time

a = ∆v/t

average acceleration a = (v2 -v1)/t. ....1

Given;

Final velocity v2 = 1.63m/s

Initial velocity v1 = -1.15ms

time taken t = 2.11s

Substituting into eqn 1

a = [1.63 - (-1.15)]/2.11

a = (1.63+1.15)/2.11

a = 2.78/2.11

a = 1.32m/s2

Therefore, the average acceleration is 1.32m/s2

Responder:

20.3 ° C

Explicación:

<u>Según la ley de Charles</u>: <em>cuando la presión sobre una muestra de gas seco se mantiene constante, la temperatura y el volumen estarán en proporción directa. </em>

Paso uno:

datos dados

Temperatura T1 = 20 ° C

Temperatura T2 =?

Volumen V1 = 12.2 cm ^ 3

Volumen V2 = 12.4 cm ^ 3

Aplicar la relación temperatura y volumen

\frac {V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac {V_{2}}{T_{2}}

sustituyendo tenemos

\frac {12.2}{20}=\frac {12.4}{T_{2}}\\\\

Cruz multiplicar tenemos

T_2=\frac{20*12.4}{12.2} \\\\T_2=\frac{248}{12.2}\\\\T_2=20.3

What is the approximate value of the gravitational force between a 73 kg astronaut and a 7.1×104 kg spacecraft when they're 89 m
Luden [163]

Answer:

F = 4.3671 * 10^{-8}\ Newtons

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two corpses is given by the following equation:

F = GMm/d^2

Where F is the force, G is the gravitational constant

(G = 6.67408*10^{-11}\ m^3kg^{-1}s^{-2}), M and m are the masses of the corpses and d is the distance between them.

So we have that:

F = 6.67408*10^{-11} * 7.1*10^4 * 73/89^2

F = 4.3671 * 10^{-8}\ Newtons

15) What is the frequency of a pendulum that is moving at 30 m/s with a wavelength of .35 m?
____ [38]

A pendulum is not a wave.

-- A pendulum doesn't have a 'wavelength'.

-- There's no way to define how many of its "waves" pass a point
every second.

--  Whatever you say is the speed of the pendulum, that speed
can only be true at one or two points in the pendulum's swing,
and it's different everywhere else in the swing.

-- The frequency of a pendulum depends only on the length
of the string from which it hangs.


If you take the given information and try to apply wave motion to it:

             Wave speed = (wavelength) x (frequency)

             Frequency  =  (speed) / (wavelength) ,

you would end up with

             Frequency = (30 meter/sec) / (0.35 meter) = 85.7 Hz

Have you ever seen anything that could be described as
a pendulum, swinging or even wiggling back and forth
85 times every second ? ! ?     That's pretty absurd. 

This math is not applicable to the pendulum.

The law of reflection states that if the angle of incidence is 32 degrees, the angle of reflection is ___ degrees.
shusha [124]

The angle of reflection is  equal to angle of incidence so the angle of reflection is also 32°.
