Answer:

The maximum altitude reached with respect to the ground = 0.5 + 0.510 = 1.01 km

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion,

When the rocket is fired from the ground,

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s (since it was initially at rest)

a = 10 m/s²

The engine cuts off at y = 0.5 km = 500 m

The velocity at that point = v

v² = u² + 2ay

v² = 0² + 2(10)(500) = 10000

v = 100 m/s

The velocity at this point is the initial velocity for the next phase of the motion

u = 100 m/s

v = final velocity = 0 m/s (at maximum height, velocity = 0)

y = vertical distance travelled after the engine shuts off beyond 0.5 km = ?

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

v² = u² + 2gy

0 = 100² + 2(-9.8)(y)

- 19.6 y = - 10000

y = 510.2 m = 0.510 km

So, the maximum altitude reached with respect to the ground = 0.5 + 0.510 = 1.01 km

Hope this helps!!!

What does the person in back of the ambulance experience? A) a lower frequency of the siren B) a lower amplitude of the siren C)
hoa [83]

The answer to your question is "A. a lower frequency of the siren.

Because the person in back of the ambulance will hear a lower frequency of the siren. This is because the waves are stretched out. A longer wavelength results in a lower frequency.

A small, 300 g cart is moving at 1.20 m/s on an air track when it collides with a larger, 2.00 kg cart at rest?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m_1 = 300\ g = 0.3\ kg

Initial speed of the cart, u_1=1.2\ m/s

Mass of the larger cart, m_2 = 2\ kg

Initial speed of the larger cart, u_2=0

After the collision,

Final speed of the smaller cart, v_1=-0.81\ m/s (as its recolis)

To find,

The speed of the large cart after collision.

Solution,

Let v_2 is the speed of the large cart after collision. It can be calculated using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2

v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2}

v_2=\dfrac{0.3\times 1.2+0-0.3\times (-0.81)}{2}

v_2=0.301\ m/s

So, the speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.
