Letter B
without a medium, there is nothing to compress, hence, no wave. A fast- medium like a gas (air) is easy to compress and allows waves to move through it easily. a slow medium, like a liquid, is still pretty fast, but not as fast as air.
Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.
Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).
At the start:
ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
Each blade is in the form of rod with axis near one end of the rod
Moment of inertia of one blade
= 1/3 x m l²
where m is mass of the blade
l is length of each blade.
Total moment of moment of 3 blades
= 3 x
x m l²
ml²
2 )
Given
m = 5500 kg
l = 45 m
Putting these values we get
moment of inertia of one blade
= 1/3 x 5500 x 45 x 45
= 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²
Moment of inertia of 3 blades
= 3 x 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²
= 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m²
c )
Angular momentum
= I x ω
I is moment of inertia of turbine
ω is angular velocity
ω = 2π f
f is frequency of rotation of blade
d )
I = 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² ( Calculated )
f = 11 rpm ( revolution per minute )
= 11 / 60 revolution per second
ω = 2π f
= 2π x 11 / 60 rad / s
Angular momentum
= I x ω
111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² x 2π x 11 / 60 rad / s
= 128.23 x 10⁵ kgm² s⁻¹ .
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Velocity of bullet,
= 814.8 m/s
Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m
Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.
t =
(velocity in air = 343 m/s)
= 0.072 sec
Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

= 
= 58.66
= 59 (approx)
Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.
Correct order, from lowest potential energy to highest potential energy:
E - C - D - B - A
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy of the car is given by:

where
m is the car's mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the height of the car relative to the ground
In the formula, we see that m and g are constant, so the potential energy of the car depends only on its height above the ground, h. The higher the car from the ground, the larger its potential energy. Therefore, the position with least potential energy will be E, since the height is the minimum. Then, C will have more potential energy, because the car is at higher position, and so on: the position with greatest potential energy is A, because the height of the car is maximum.
