A car starts from 0 m along a road and accelerates at 0.5 m/s^2 to the right. A second car starts from 1000 m along the road and
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

e) 31.6 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Equation of motion

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s_1=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 0.5\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s_1=\frac{1}{2}0.5t^2\ m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s_2=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 0.5\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s_2=\frac{1}{2}1.5t^2\ m

s_1+s_2=1000

\\\Rightarrow 1000=\frac{1}{2}0.5t^2+\frac{1}{2}1.5t^2\\\Rightarrow 1000=\frac{0.5t^2+1.5t^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow 1000=\frac{2t^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow 1000=t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{1000}\\\Rightarrow t=31.6\ s

Time taken by the cars to meet 31.6 seconds.

A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose size is approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the bat make
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

6.136 mm

Explanation:

given,

frequency emitted by the bat = 5.59 x 10⁴ Hz

speed of sound = 343 m/s

smallest insect bat can hear  will be equal to the wavelength  of the sound the bat make.

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda = \dfrac{343}{5.59\times 10^4}

\lambda = 6.136\times 10^{-3}}

λ = 6.136 mm

so, the smallest size of insect that bat can hear is equal to 6.136 mm
