A bus resists changes in its motion. Why is this?

I believe it’s A

inertia is the resistance to change, so it would make sense for the bus to not change direction

A. It has a large amount of inertia.

A tennis ball connected to a string is spun around in a vertical, circular path at a uniform speed. The ball has a mass m = 0.15
Oksanka [162]

1) 5.5 N

When the ball is at the bottom of the circle, the equation of the forces is the following:

T-mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}

where

T is the tension in the string, which points upward

mg is the weight of the string, which points downward, with

m = 0.158 kg being the mass of the ball

g = 9.8 m/s^2 being the acceleration due to gravity

m \frac{v^2}{R} is the centripetal force, which points upward, with

v = 5.22 m/s being the speed of the ball

R = 1.1 m being the radius of the circular trajectory

Substituting numbers and re-arranging the formula, we find T:

T=mg+m\frac{v^2}{R}=(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)+(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=5.5 N

2) 3.9 N

When the ball is at the side of the circle, the only force acting along the centripetal direction is the tension in the string, therefore the equation of the forces becomes:

T=m\frac{v^2}{R}

And by substituting the numerical values, we find

T=(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=3.9 N

3) 2.3 N

When the ball is at the top of the circle, both the tension and the weight of the ball point downward, in the same direction of the centripetal force. Therefore, the equation of the force is

T+mg=m\frac{v^2}{R}

And substituting the numerical values and re-arranging it, we find

T=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(0.158 kg)\frac{5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}-(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=2.3 N

4) 3.3 m/s

The minimum velocity for the ball to keep the circular motion occurs when the centripetal force is equal to the weight of the ball, and the tension in the string is zero; therefore:

T=0\\mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}

and re-arranging the equation, we find

v=\sqrt{gR}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(1.1 m)}=3.3 m/s

Two identical loudspeakers are placed on a wall 1.00 m apart. A listener stands 4.00 m from the wall directly in front of one of
natita [175]

Answer:

The phase difference is 0.659 rad.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between two identical loudspeakers d= 1.00  m

Distance between speakers and listener r= 4.00 m

Frequency = 300 Hz

Suppose we need to find the phase difference in radian between the waves from the speakers when they reach the observer

We need to calculate the r'

Using Pythagorean theorem

r'=\sqrt{d^2+r^2}

Where, d = distance between two identical loudspeakers

r = distance between speakers and listener

Put the value into the formula

r'=\sqrt{(1.00)^2+(4.00)^2}

r'=\sqrt{1.00+16.00}

r'=4.12\ m

We need to calculate the path difference

Using formula of path difference

|r'-r|=4.12-4.00

|r'-r|=0.12\ m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Where, v = speed of sound

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{343}{300}

\lambda=1.143\ m

We need to calculate the phase difference

Using formula of phase difference

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi\times|r'-r| }{\lambda}

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi\times0.12}{1.143}

\phi=0.659\ rad

Hence, The phase difference is 0.659 rad.
