Released weight increases in velocity.

momentum increases as force increases.

momentum= mass x velocity

the wrecking ball has a bigger mass and weight.

the mass of the weight of the wrecking ball is constant, the velocity of the weight as it swings must be increased if momentum is going to be increased.

Answer: A wrecking ball can destroy a building because it is larger, and when it hits something, it exerts a lot of <u>kinetic energy.</u>

A yo-yo is too small and does not exert as much kinetic energy because of it's size.

Two identical loudspeakers are some distance apart. A person stands 5.80 m from one speaker and 3.90 m from the other. What is t

NikAS [45]

Answer:

f = 632 Hz

Explanation:

As we know that for destructive interference the path difference from two loud speakers must be equal to the odd multiple of half of the wavelength

here we know that

$\Delta x = (2n + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}$
