B.compressions

Explanation:

This is a characteristics of the "longitudinal waves".

Longitudinal waves are waves where the oscillation of the particles of the medium occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave (an example of longitudinal waves are sound waves). As a consequence, this oscillation creates some regions where particles are closer together, and other regions where particles are more spread apart. The former are called "compressions", while the latter are called "rarefactions".

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coas
Pavel [41]

Complete question is:

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.

Answer:

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_A = 100 m

h_B = 150 m

v_B = 0 m/s

From law of conservation of energy,

the distance from point A to B is;

h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m

From Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2gh

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)

(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)

(V_A) = √981

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Find the pressure if a force of 2N is applied to an area of 0.00004m^2
BigorU [14]

Answer:

5 x 10^4 N/m^2

Explanation:

Pressure, force and area are related witg the following equation;

Pressure = Force /Area

From the question, we obtained the following information;

Force = 2N

Area = 0.00004m^2

Pressure =?

Pressure = Force /Area

Pressure = 2/0.00004

Pressure = 5 x 10^4N/m^2

a cyclist applies a constant forward force of 20 N to maintain a velocity 2.5 m/s. how much power does the cyclist deliver?
forsale [732]

The power exerted by the cyclist is determined as 50 W.

<h3>Average power exerted by the cyclist</h3>

The power exerted by the cyclist is calculated as follows;

P = FV

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • V is velocity

P = 20 x 2.5

P = 50 W

Thus, the power exerted by the cyclist is determined as 50 W.
