Distinguish between directly proportional and inversely proportional with an example of each

1 answer:

4 0

Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.

Certain rifles can fire a bullet with a speed of 950 m/s just as it leaves the muzzle (this speed is called the muzzle velocity)

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$ => a= 70291.70.

(b)By $v = u + at$ => t= 1.58 ms.

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$ => H = 46045.92 m.

Explanation:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$

$(950)^2 = 0 + 2 \times a \times 0.75\\a = 601666.67 m/s^2\\a/g = 688858.70/9.8 = 70291.70$

(b)By $v = u + at$

$950 = 0 + 601666.67 \times t\\t = 1.58 x 10^-3 sec = 1.58 ms$

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$

$0 = (950)^2 - 2 \times9.8 \times H\\H = 46045.92 m$

A stone is dropped from a cliff. What will be its speed when it was fallen 100 m?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

final velocity will be44.72m/s

Explanation:

HEIGHT=h=100m

vi=0m/s

vf=?

g=10m/s²

by using third equation of motion for bodies under gravity

2gh=(vf)²-(vi)²

evaluating the formula

2(10m/s²)(100m)=vf²-(0m/s)²

2000m²/s²=vf²

√2000m²/s²=√vf²

44.72m/s=vf

6. Why does sound travel faster through a steel bar than through a swimming pool filled with water?

Lady_Fox [76]

I understand that sound travels faster in water then in air. Water is a liquid, and air is gas.

Water still has the ability to roll the molecules over each other (so water can flow), it has some flexibility.

But I do not understand how a solid that is inflexible can make sound waves travel faster then in a flexible liquid.

In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.

Sound waves travel over four times faster in water than it would in air.
