A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.1 m/s. How long does h

e have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.27 m, and he is 1.96 m tall?

We need to use the kinematic equation
S=ut+(1/2)at^2
where
S=displacement (+=up, in metres)
u=initial velocity (m/s)
t=time (seconds)
a=acceleration (+=up, in m/s^2)

Substitute values
S=displacement = 1.96-2.27 = -0.31 m (so that shot does not hit his head)
u=11.1
a=-9.81 (acceleration due to gravity)

-0.31=11.1t+(1/2)(-9.81)t^2
Rearrange and solve for t
-4.905t^2+11.1t-0.31=0
t=-0.02756 or t=2.291 seconds 
Reject the negative root to give
t=2.29 seconds (to 3 significant figures)

Real springs have mass. How will the true period andfrequency
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

An perfect mass less spring, attached at one end and with a free mass attached at the other end, will have a distinct frequency of oscillation depending on its constant spring and mass. On the other hand, a spring with mass along its length will not have a characteristic frequency of oscillation.

Alternatively, based on its spring constant and mass per length, it will now have a wave Speed. It would be possible to use all wavelengths and frequencies, as long as the component fλ= S, where S is the spring wave size. If that sounds like longitudinal waves, like solid sound waves.

A boat travels at 30 mph for a huge, solid cliff that is about 3,000 meters away. When the horn on the boat makes a toot, you ca
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:The frequency of the echo is slightly decreased

Explanation:

Given

speed of boat =30\ mph

cliff is 3000\ m away

when boat is still , suppose t is the time taken by the echo to reach observer on the boat

But as soon as boat starts moving  the distance between cliff and boat decreasing and time for echo to reach observer also decreases

and we know time \propto \frac{1}{frequency}

therefore frequency of the echo slightly decreased.

HELP!!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! IF YOU LEAVE AN ANSWER EXPLAIN! THANKS
Travka [436]

Answer:

the answer is C

Explanation:

we know this because if you compare the graphs and look at the direction. it isn't always in the explanation or the few sentences they gave you at the top. also, look at the waves, you can see in Davids drawing that it is directly straight up, A and B do not represent that. A isn't even a valid answer. Notice also in A that the arrow is going in the completely different direction than in Davids drawing. B is also going a different direction even though it is only turned a little bit although if it was straight up like Davids drawing then it would most likely be a correct answer. C does have one arrow going a different direction but look at how it has two, showing in which if the waves were to turn then the arrow is still valid
