Answer:

1.26 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 172 m

v₀ = 17.3 m/s

v = 27.1 m/s

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(27.1 m/s)² = (17.3 m/s)² + 2a (172 m)

a = 1.26 m/s²

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon

A 1.2 m long wave travels 11.2 m to a wall and back again in 4.0 s. What is
algol [13]

Answer:

   f = 4.67 Hz

Explanation:

We can approximate the wave as a traveling wave, therefore the speed of the wave is constant

          v = d / t

the total distance remember, in going to the wall and back is

          d = 2 11.2 = 22.4 me

we substitute

          v = 22.4 / 4.0

          v = 5.6 m / s

now we can use the relationship between the speed of the wave, its wavelength and u frequency

          v =λ f

          f = v /λ

          f = 5.6 / 1.2

          f = 4.67 Hz

A dolphin keeps up with a boat for a distance of 51 miles for 3 hours. What is the dolphin’s average speed?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The dolphin's speed is 17 mi/h

Explanation:

Use the formula for average velocity: Distance/time

then the average speed of the dolphin is 51/3  mi/h = 17 mi/h
