Answer:

a) - 9.8 m/s²

b) 0 m/s

c) 9.8 m/s

d) 4.9 m

Explanation:

(a)

While the ball is in flight, acceleration due to gravity acts on it. hence

a = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

The negative sign indicates downward direction

b)

At the maximum height, the ball comes to a momentary stop. hence the velocity of the ball at the maximum height is zero.

0 m/s

c)

Consider the motion of the ball

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball at the time of throw = v

a = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time interval = 2 s

v = final velocity just before he catch the ball = - v

using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

- v = v + (- 9.8) (2)

v = 9.8 m/s

d)

h = maximum height reached

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball at the time of throw = 9.8 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball at the highest point = 0 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a h

0² = 9.8² + 2 (- 9.8) h

h = 4.9 m

After a wave passes through a medium, particles in the medium
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

If a particle is affected by a wave, then the particles are displaced. They move along the direction of the wave. Hence, After a wave passes through a medium, particles in the medium are moved along with the wave.

Ocean waves of wavelength 26 m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.0 m/s . The waves reflect from the wall,
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

wavelength λ = 26 m

velocity v = 4.0 m/s

a) How far from the wall is she?

Now, The first antinode is formed at a distance λ/2 from the wall, since the separation distance between the person and wall is;

x = λ/2

we substitute

x = 26 m / 2

x = 13 m

Therefore, the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) What is the period of her up-and-down motion?

we know that the relationship between frequency, wavelength and wave speed is;

v = fλ

hence, f = v/λ

we also know that frequency is expressed as the reciprocal of the time period;

f = 1/T

Hence

1/T = v/λ

solve for T

Tv = λ

T = λ/v

we substitute

T = 26 m / 4 m/s

T = 6.5 s

Therefore, the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and ret
emmasim [6.3K]

f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car  = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s

A particle moves in a straight line with the velocity function v ( t ) = sin ( w t ) cos 3 ( w t ) . find its position function
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Integrating the velocity equation, we will see that the position equation is:

$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}

<h3>How to get the position equation of the particle?</h3>

Let the velocity of the particle is:

$v(t)=\sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t)

To get the position equation we just need to integrate the above equation:

$f(t)=\int \sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t) d t

$\mathrm{u}=\cos (\omega \mathrm{t})

Then:

$d u=-\sin (\omega t) d t

\Rightarrow d t=-d u / \sin (\omega t)

Replacing that in our integral we get:

$\int \sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t) d t$

$-\int \frac{\sin (\omega t) * u^2 d u}{\sin (\omega t)}-\int u^2 d t=-\frac{u^3}{3}+c$

Where C is a constant of integration.

Now we remember that $u=\cos (\omega t)$

Then we have:

$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)}{3}+C

To find the value of C, we use the fact that f(0) = 0.

$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega * 0)}{3}+C=\frac{1}{3}+C=0

C = -1 / 3

Then the position function is:

$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}

Integrating the velocity equation, we will see that the position equation is:

$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}
