Answer:

The time is 0.90 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 4.00 m

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

$s = ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where, s = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$4.00=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2$

$t^2=\dfrac{4.00\times2}{9.8}$

$t=\sqrt{\dfrac{4.00\times2}{9.8}}$

$t=0.90\ sec$

Hence, The time is 0.90 sec.

(9.8m/s) divided by 4m. the m's cancel out leaving you with s so 2.45s

At time t=0, a particle is located at the point (3,6,9). It travels in a straight line to the point (5,2,7), has speed 8 at (3,6

Elis [28]

The particle has constant acceleration according to

$\vec a(t)=2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k$

Its velocity at time $t$ is

$\displaystyle\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+\int_0^t\vec a(u)\,\mathrm du$

$\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+(2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k)t$

$\vec v(t)=(v_{0x}+2t)\,\vec\imath+(v_{0y}-4t)\,\vec\jmath+(v_{0z}-2t)\,\vec k$

Then the particle has position at time $t$ according to

$\displaystyle\vec r(t)=\vec r(0)+\int_0^t\vec v(u)\,\mathrm du$

$\vec r(t)=(3+v_{0x}t+t^2)\,\vec\imath+(6+v_{0y}t-2t^2)\,\vec\jmath+(9+v_{0z}t-t^2)\,\vec k$

At at the point (3, 6, 9), i.e. when $t=0$ , it has speed 8, so that

$\|\vec v(0)\|=8\iff{v_{0x}}^2+{v_{0y}}^2+{v_{0z}}^2=64$

We know that at some time $t=T$ , the particle is at the point (5, 2, 7), which tells us

$\begin{cases}3+v_{0x}T+T^2=5\\6+v_{0y}T-2T^2=2\\9+v_{0z}T-T^2=7\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}v_{0x}=\dfrac{2-T^2}T\\\\v_{0y}=\dfrac{2T^2-4}T\\\\v_{0z}=\dfrac{T^2-2}T\end{cases}$

and in particular we see that

$v_{0y}=-2v_{0x}$

and

$v_{0z}=-v_{0x}$

Then

${v_{0x}}^2+(-2v_{0x})^2+(-v_{0x})^2=6{v_{0x}}^2=64\implies v_{0x}=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3$

$\implies v_{0y}=\mp\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3$

$\implies v_{0z}=\mp\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3$

That is, there are two possible initial velocities for which the particle can travel between (3, 6, 9) and (5, 2, 7) with the given acceleration vector and given that it starts with a speed of 8. Then there are two possible solutions for its position vector; one of them is

$\vec r(t)=\left(3+\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t+t^2\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(6-\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3t-2t^2\right)\,\vec\jmath+\left(9-\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t-t^2\right)\,\vec k$

Two instruments produce a beat frequency of 5 Hz. If one has a frequency of 264 Hz, what could be the frequency of the other ins

Lerok [7]

Answer:

259 Hz or 269 Hz

Explanation:

Beat: This is the phenomenon obtained when two notes of nearly equal frequency are sounded together. The S.I unit of beat is Hertz (Hz).

From the question,

Beat = f₂-f₁................ Equation 1

Note: The frequency of the other instrument is either f₁ or f₂.

If the unknown instrument's frequency is f₁,

Then,

f₁ = f₂-beat............ equation 2

Given: f₂ = 264 Hz, Beat = 5 Hz

Substitute into equation 2

f₁ = 264-5

f₁ = 259 Hz.

But if the unknown frequency is f₂,

Then,

f₂ = f₁+Beat................. Equation 3

f₂ = 264+5

f₂ = 269 Hz.

Hence the beat could be 259 Hz or 269 Hz
