Answer:

27.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that at a race car driving event, a staff member notices that the skid marks left by the race car are 9.06 m long. The very experienced staff member knows that the deceleration of a car when skidding is -40.52 m/s2.

Using third equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2aS

Since the car is decelerating, the final velocity V = 0

Substitute all the parameter into the equation above,

0 = U^2 - 2 * 40.52 * 9.06

U^2 = 734.22

U = $\sqrt{734.22}$

U = 27.096

U = 27.1 m/s approximately

Therefore, the staff member can estimate for the original speed of the race car to be 27.1 m/s if it came to a stop during the skid

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

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

given that path difference from two loud speakers is given as

$\Delta x = 5.80 m - 3.90 m$

$\Delta x = 1.90 m$

now we know that it will have fourth lowest frequency at which destructive interference will occurs

so here we have

$\Delta x = 1.90 = \frac{7\lambda}{2}$

$\lambda = \frac{2 \times 1.90}{7}$

$\lambda = 0.54 m$

now for frequency we know that

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

$f = \frac{343}{0.54} = 632 Hz$

A ball of mass m, attached to the end of a horizontal cord, is rotated in a circle of radius r on a frictionless horizontal surf

kirza4 [7]

Answer: $v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}$

Explanation:

Given

Ball of mass m

maximum Bearable Tension in string is F

Let length of the cord be L m and moving at a speed of v m/s

Here Tension will Provide Centripetal Force

T=Centripetal Force

$F=T=\frac{mv^2}{L}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}$

<h2><u>Hello </u><u>There</u></h2>

$\tt{Difference \: Between \: \underline\red {Horticulture} \: And \: \underline\green{Agriculture}}$

$\text{\underline\red {Horticulture}}$

The Cultivation of Fruits, Vegetables and Flowers for domestic and international markets are called Horticulture.

$\text{\underline\green{Agriculture}}$

It is science, art and occupation of cultivating the soil, producing crops and livestock. It is systematic and controlled use of living organisms and the environment to improve the human condition.

A train travels 8.81 m/s in a -51.0° direction.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

The displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.

<h3>Resultant velocity of the train</h3>

The resultant velocity of the train is calculated as follows;

R² = vi² + vf² - 2vivf cos(θ)

where;

θ is the angle between the velocity = (90 - 51) + 37 = 76⁰

R² = 8.81² + 9.66² - 2(8.81 x 9.66) cos(76)

R² = 129.75

R = √129.75

R = 11.39 m/s

<h3>Displacement of the train</h3>

Δx = vt

Δx = 11.39 m/s x 2.23 s

Δx = 25.4 m

Thus, the displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.

A certain lightning bolt moves 10.0 C of charge. How many charges have been moved if the fundamental unit of charge is 1.6 x 10-

Andrej [43]

To solve this problem, use the ratio given by the total number of electrons or protons that exist as a function of the total charge, and inversely proportional to the value of the fundamental charge. The number of fundamental unit $|q_e|$ that constitutes a charge of 40.0C can be calculated as

$N = \frac{|Q|}{|q_e|}$

Here,

$q_e$ = Value of charge and it is the fundamental charge

Q = Total Charge

N = Total number of electron or protons

The number of fundamental units is calculated as follows

$N = \frac{10.0C}{1.6*10^{-19}C}$

$N = 6.25*10^{19}$

Therefore the number of fundamental charge units moved by lightning bolt is $6.25*10^{19}$
