Sound travels at a rate of 340 m/s in all directs through the air. Matt rings a very loud bell at one location, and Steve hears

it some time later at his location 450 meters to the south. How long did it take the sound to travel from the bell to Steve’s location?

Answer:

It will take about 1.32 seconds to travel to his location.

Explanation:

Considering the sound travels at 340 m/s, then if a person is at a distance of 450 m m from the bell, we can use the velocity formula to find the answer;

velocity=\frac{distance}{time} \\340\,\frac{m}{s} =\frac{450\,\,m}{t} \\t=\frac{450}{340} \,s\\t\approx 1.32\,\,s

Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract.
Zina [86]

The statement ‘Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.

The two particles are both moving to the right. Particle 1 catches up with particle 2 and collides with it. The particles stick
Travka [436]

Answer:

c. vf is greator than v2, but less than v1

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that when two or more bodies act upon one another, their total momentum remains constant.

In a system of colliding bodies the total momentum of the system just before the collision is the same as the total momentum just after the collision.  

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is conserved are called elastic collision.

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is not conserved are called inelastic collisions.  If the two objects stick together after the collision and move with a common velocity, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic.

<em>The above scenario is a perfectly inelastic collision. The initial velocity of particle 1 was greater than particle 2 before collision. After collision, its velocity will reduce to a final velocity vf as it transfers some of its kinetic energy to particle 2; whereas, the velocity of particle 2 will increase to a final velocity vf as it absorbs some of the kinetic energy of particle 1.</em>

Therefore,

a. vf = v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

b. vf is less than v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

c. vf is greater than v2, but less than v1 is correct.

d. vf = v1 is wrong because vf is less than v1

A ball is thrown straight up with a velocity of 50 m/s.(use g = -10 m/s^2) a) What is the velocity in m/s after 2 seconds?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(a) 30 m/sec

(b) -50 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity of ball u = 50 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity g=-10m/sec^2

(a) Time t = 2 sec

Now according to first equation of v = u-gt

So v=50-10×2=30 m/sec

(b) Time t = 10 sec

Now according to first equation of motion

So final velocity v = u-gt = 50-10×10 =-50 m/sec
