A bowling ball traveling with constant speed hits the pins at the end of a bowling lane 16.5 m long. The bowler hears the sound

of the ball hitting the pins 2.50 s after the ball is released from his hands. What is the speed of the ball? The speed of sound is 340 m/s.

total time = ball travel time + sound travel time  

2.40 = Tball + 18.0 m / (340 m/s)  

Tball = 2.35 s  

V = d/t = 18.0 / 2.35 = 7.67 m/s

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

  We shall apply concept of Doppler's effect of apparent frequency to this problem . Here observer is moving sometimes towards and sometimes away from the source . When observer moves towards the source , apparent frequency is more than real frequency and when the observer moves away from the source , apparent frequency is less than real frequency . The apparent frequency depends upon velocity of observer . The formula for apparent frequency when observer is going away is as follows .

f = f₀ ( V - v₀ ) / V , f is apparent , f₀ is real frequency , V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of observer .

f will be lowest when v₀ is highest .

velocity of observer is highest when he is at the equilibrium position or at middle point .

So apparent frequency is lowest when observer is at the middle point and going away from the source  while swinging to and from before the source of sound .

Describe two sources of earth's energy that are not produced
Anvisha [2.4K]
Here is the answer. Two sources of Earth's energy that are not produced would be Cosmic rays and Tidal Energy. Cosmic rays <span>are high-energy protons and atomic nuclei that come from outside the solar system. Whereas, tidal energy is the energy produced by both the moon (2/3) and the sun (1/3). Hope this answers your question.</span>

In three sentences, please describe SIMPLE HARMONIC motion, and give two examples. Thank you! :-)
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
A system that repeats to and from its mean or rest point. that executes harmonic motion. a few examples I've heard of are since the springtime a mass-spring system,a swing, simple pendulum, one more example is a steel ball rolling in a curved is this what you need or do you need three more sentences dish. to get S.H.M a body just displaced away from the resting position and of course then is released. the human body oscillates due to the reinforce that pulls it back do you need anything else answered on this and I'll answer it

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km. 1. If you and your spacesuit
Law Incorporation [45]

1. 0.16 N

The weight of a man on the surface of asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the man:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M=8.7\cdot 10^{13}kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 100 kg is the mass of the man

r = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the distance of the man from the centre of the asteroid

Substituting, we find

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})\frac{(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(110 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}=0.16 N

2. 1.7 m/s

In order to stay in orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (so, at a distance r=2000 m from its centre), the gravitational force must be equal to the centripetal force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where v is the minimum speed required to stay in orbit.

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=1.7 m/s
