How does mass affect the distance a car can travel?

1 answer:

7 0

Well yes it does the heavier the object being launched it wont go as far as the lighter one.
Gravity is pulling it down and the heavier the mass the farther it will travel down the ramp. The heavier it is the more gravity has to pull down

A cross-country skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Magnitude = 14 metres

Direction = eastward.

Explanation:

A cross-country skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward.

Whats the Magnitude and Direction?

The magnitude and direction will be the displacement of the cross country skier.

Let the east ward be positive and the west ward be negative.

Since the skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward. Then, that will be:

36 - 44 + 22 = 14

Since the answer is positive, the magnitude is 14 and the direction is east ward.

What can one say for sure about element #99, Einsteinium (Es))? a) There's no such element! b) It is an alkali metal. c) It is r

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Einsteinium is an element of the periodic table grouped in the Actinide series, with atomic number 99. They are dense element and highly electro-positive. <u>They are highly radioactive</u>, i.e the atoms within the element are unstable and constantly decay until they reach a stable environment. It has 99 number of electrons and protons, 153 number of neutrons.

Due to its high radioactivity, they are health hazardous and can used in making nuclear weapons but their uses are very limited and unknown.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

You and a partner sit on the floor and stretch out a coiled spring to a length of 7.2 meters. You shake the coil so you

vekshin1

Answer:

Approximately $5.9\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ (assuming that the partner is holding the other end of the coil stationary.)

Explanation:

In a standing wave, an antinode is a point that moves with maximal amplitude, while a node is a point that does not move at all. There is an antinode between every two adjacent nodes. Likewise, there is a node between every two adjacent antinodes.

The side of the spring that is being shaken moving with maximal amplitude. Hence, that point on this spring would also be an antinode. In contrast, the side of the spring that is held still (does not move at all) would be a node.

There would be a node between:

the antinode at the end of the spring that is being shaken, and
the antinode between the two ends of this spring.

Overall, the nodes and antinodes on this spring would be:

node at the end that is being held still,
antinode (as mentioned in the question),
node (inferred, not mentioned in the question), and
antinode at the end that is being shaken.

The distance between two adjacent nodes is equal to one-half (that is, $(1/2)$ ) the wavelength of the wave. The distance between a node and an adjacent antinode is one-quarter (that is, $(1/4)$ ) of the wavelength of the wave.

Thus, if the wavelength of the wave in this question is $\lambda$ , the length of this spring would be:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, \lambda + \frac{1}{4}\, \lambda = \frac{3}{4}\, \lambda$ .

The question states that the length of this coiled spring is $7.2\; {\rm m}$ . In other words, $(3/4) \, \lambda = 7.2\; {\rm m}$ . The wavelength of this wave would be $(7.2\; {\rm m}) / (3/4) = 9.6\; {\rm m}$ .
