Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 135{\rm mi} of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65{

\rm mph} . Normally Richard drives at the speed limit, but today he is running late and decides to take his chances by driving at 73{\rm mph} . How many minutes does he save?

Answer:

time spent = 0.2276

Explanation:

given data

distance = 135 mi

usual speed = 65 mph

today speed = 73 mph

solution

we get here time that is express as

time = \frac{distance}{speed}    ...................1

usual time = \frac{135}{65}  = 2.0769 h

today time = \frac{135}{73} = 1.8493 h

so we get here time spent as

time spent = 2.0769 h - 1.8493 h

time spent = 0.2276

Two in-phase loudspeakers, which emit sound in all directions, are sitting side by side. One of them is moved sideways by 4.0 mm
loris [4]

Answer:

4.4721m

Explanation:

#Use Pythagorean theorem to find the distance between the two speakers:

a^+b^2=c^2\\4^2+2^2=d^2\\\sqrt{20}\ mm=d

There are antinodes 1/4,1/2 and 3/4 of the distance between speakers.

The greatest antinode is 3/4-1/4=1/2

#Distance between consecutive antinodes is:

0.5\times \sqrt{20}=\lambda/2\\\\\lambda=4.4721m

Hence, the maximum possible wavelength of the sound waves is 4.4721m

A ball is tossed with a velocity of 10 m/s directed vertically upward from a window located 20 m above the ground. Determine the
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of ball u=10\ m/s

height of window h=20\ m

Using Equation of motion

y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where u=initial velocity

t=time

a=acceleration

As ball is already is at a height of 20 m so

Y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2+20

Y=10\times t+0.5\times (-9.8)t^2+20

Y=-4.9t^2+10t+20

(b)highest point is obtained at v=0

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

(0)-10^2=2\times (-9.8)\times s

s=\frac{100}{19.6}

s=5.102\ m

Highest Point will be s+20=25.102\ m

(c)Time taken when the ball hit the ground i.e. at Y=0

-4.9t^2+10t+20=0

t=3.28\ s

impact velocity v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 25.102}

v=22.181\ m/s

Describe a situation in which an object's speed is constant but its velocity is changing.
Olegator [25]
1) If the object changes directions with the same speed, it will be changing its velocity, because velocity is a vector, which depends on both magnitude and direction. Speed is just magnitude regardless of direction.

2) Rotational motion.
