Explanation:

Explanation:

Solid has specific shape and volume

Liquid has specific volume but no specific shape

Gases have no specific volume and no specific shape

So correct answer is liquid.

A turtle and a rabbit are in a 150 meter race. The rabbit decides to give the turtle a 1 minute head start. The turtle moves at

yan [13]

Answer:

a) $s_{T} = 30\,m$ , b) $t = 5\,min$ , c) $\Delta t = 6.667\,s$ , d) $\Delta s_{R} = 33.333\,m$ , e) $t' = 11.667\,s$ , f) The rabbit won the race.

Explanation:

a) As turtle moves at constant speed, its position is determined by the following formula:

$s_{T} = v_{T}\cdot t$

Where:

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$v_{T}$ - Velocity of the turtle, measured in meters per second.

$s_{T}$ - Position of the turtle, measured in meters.

Then, the position of the turtle when the rabbit starts to run is:

$s_{T} = \left(0.5\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (60\,s)$

$s_{T} = 30\,m$

The position of the turtle when the rabbit starts to run is 30 meters.

b) The time needed for the turtle to finish the race is:

$t = \frac{s_{T}}{v_{T}}$

$t = \frac{150\,m}{0.5\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$t = 300\,s$

$t = 5\,min$

The time needed for the turtle to finish the race is 5 minutes.

c) As rabbit experiments a constant acceleration until maximum velocity is reached and moves at constant speed afterwards, the time required to reach such speed is:

$v_{R} = v_{o,R} + a_{R}\cdot \Delta t$

Where:

$v_{R}$ - Final velocity of the rabbit, measured in meters per second.

$v_{o,R}$ - Initial velocity of the rabbit, measured in meters per second.

$a_{R}$ - Acceleration of the rabbit, measured in $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ .

$\Delta t$ - Running time, measured in second.

$\Delta t = \frac{v_{R}-v_{o,R}}{a_{R}}$

$\Delta t = \frac{10\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s}}{1.50\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }$

$\Delta t = 6.667\,s$

The time taken by the rabbit to reach maximum speed is 6.667 s.

d) On the other hand, the position reached by the rabbit when maximum speed is reached is determined by the following equation of motion:

$v_{R}^{2} = v_{o,R}^{2} + 2\cdot a_{R}\cdot \Delta s_{R}$

$\Delta s_{R} = \frac{v_{R}^{2}-v_{o,R}^{2}}{2\cdot a_{R}}$

Where $\Delta s_{R}$ is the travelled distance of the rabbit from rest to maximum speed.

$\Delta s_{R} = \frac{\left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(1.50\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}$

$\Delta s_{R} = 33.333\,m$

The distance travelled by the rabbit from rest to maximum speed is 33.333 meters.

e) The time required for the rabbit to finish the race can be determined by the following expression:

$t' = \frac{\Delta s_{R}}{v_{R}}$

$t' = \frac{150\,m-33.333\,m}{10\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$t' = 11.667\,s$

The time required for the rabbit from rest to maximum speed is 11.667 seconds.

f) The animal with the lowest time wins the race. Now, each running time is determined:

Turtle:

$t_{T} = 300\,s$

Rabbit:

$t_{R} = 60\,s + 6.667\,s + 11.667\,s$

$t_{R} = 78.334\,s$

The rabbit won the race as $t_{R} < t_{T}$ .

What should be the spring constant k of a spring designed to bring a 1200 kg car to rest from a speed of 85 km/h so that the occ

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

k = 5178.8 N/m

Explanation:

As we know that spring mass system will oscillate at angular frequency given as

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

now we have

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{1200}}$

now the maximum acceleration of the spring block system is at its maximum compression state which is given as

$a = \omega^2 A$

here A= maximum compression of the spring

so here in order to find maximum compression of the spring we will use energy conservation as we know that initial total kinetic energy of the car will convert into spring potential energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$

here we know that

v = 85 km/h

$v = 85 \times\frac{1000}{3600} = 23.61 m/s$

now we have

$(1200)(23.61^2) = kA^2$

$A^2 = \frac{6.68 \times 10^5}{k}$

now from above equation of acceleration we have

$5.0 g = (\frac{k}{m})\sqrt{\frac{6.68 \times 10^5}{k}}$

$5.0(9.81) = \sqrt{k}(0.68)$

$k = 5178.8 N/m$

The units we use to measure the sound intensity level are _____.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

decibels (dB)

Explanation:

The sound intensity level is a quantity derived from the sound intensity.

The intensity of a wave is defined as the power of the source of the wave divided by the area through which the power of the wave is spread, mathematically:

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

where

P is the power of the source

$A=4\pi r^2$ is the surface area over which the wave spreads (assuming that the wave propagates in all directions, it corresponds to the surface area of a sphere of radius $r$ , where r is the distance between the source of the wave and the observer)

For sound waves, the intensity is often expressed using another unit, called decibel (dB), defined as follows:

$\beta(dB)=10Log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_0})$

where

$\beta$ is the sound intensity level in decibels

I is the intensity of the sound wave

$I_0=1\cdot 10^{-12} W/m^2$ is the threshold intensity of a sound that a person can normally hear.
