A zebra runs across a field at a constant speed of 14 m/s. The zebra would run 112 m in 8 seconds.

<u>Explanation: </u>

According to Kinematics, the distance travelled is given by the product of speed and time. Here, the speed given as 14 m/s, and time is 8 seconds. Now, the equation is as follows,

$\text {velocity} = \frac{\text {distance}(s)}{\text {time}(t)}$

The required term to find as per the question is distance, so rearranging the above equation, we get,

$s = v e l o c i t y \times t$

By substituting the given values, we get, how much distance the zebra can run in time period of 8 seconds as,

Distance, $s = 14 \times 8 = 112 m$

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \frac{1}{4}$

Explanation:

The period of the simple pendulum is:

$T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Where:

$l$ - Cord length, in m.

$g$ - Gravity constant, in $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ .

Given that the same pendulum is test on each planet, the following relation is formed:

$T_{1}^{2}\cdot g_{1} = T_{2}^{2}\cdot g_{2}$

The ratio of the gravitational constant on planet CornTeen to the gravitational constant on planet Earth is:

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \left(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}} \right)^{2}$

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \left(\frac{2\,s}{4\,s} \right)^{2}$

$\frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}} = \frac{1}{4}$

A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 3.9 m/s. The car is a distanc

sammy [17]

If it takes $t$ seconds to reach the car, then the distance $d$ is $3.9t$ .

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
$6t-23$

For maximum $d$ , we set the equations equal to each other:
$3.9t=6t-23$
$\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23$
$\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}$
so the distance is
$d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m$

As a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope _______.

kupik [55]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Are moving up and down.

As a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope <u>are moving up and down</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Transverse waves occur when a disturbance causes oscillations perpendicular to the propagation, that is the direction of energy transfer.
<em><u>Particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction the transverse wave itself is moving. For example, if the wave is moving to the right, the particles of the medium are moving up and down.</u></em>
<em><u>Therefore, as a transverse wave travels through a rope from left to right, the parts of the rope are moving up and down.</u></em>

How are amplitude, intensity, and<br> loudness related?

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves. It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves. Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder. The same amount of energy is spread over a greater area, so the intensity and loudness of the sound is less.
