Answer:

F = -11199.63 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of the brick = 12 Kg

height of the fall, h = 1.9 m

thickness of the carpet = 2 cm = 0.02 m

average force = ?

velocity of brick just before hitting mat

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v =\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.9}

      v = 6.11 m/s

velocity of brick just before hitting ground= 6.11 m/s

final velocity = 0 m/s

using equation of motion for acceleration calculation.

 v² = u² + 2 a s

 0² = 6.11² + 2x a x 0.02

 a = -\dfrac{6.11^2}{0.04}

    a  =-933.3025 m/s²

now, average force is equal to

F = m a

F = 12 x (-933.3025)

F = -11199.63 N

negative sign represent the decelerating force.

A sound wave with a frequency of 400 Hz is moving through a solid object. If the wavelength of the sound wave is 8 m, what is th
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

v = 3200 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the frequency of the sound wave is given as

f = 400 Hz

wavelength of the sound wave is given as

\lambda = 8 m

so now we have

speed = wavelength \times frequency

so we will have

v = (8m) \times (400 Hz)

v = 3200 m/s

A pickup truck is being driven down the highway carrying eight 100 gallon fish tank full of water. A hole is punctured in each t
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the vehicle would increase because the the tanks (when filled with water) must have exerted a force which would reduce the velocity of the vehicle at a certain pressure on the gas pedal. Note that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration; as the mass decreases, so the force decreases. Thus, when the mass exerted by this tanks (on the vehicle) decrease as a result of the hole punctured in them, the force exerted by the tanks would also decrease causing an increase in velocity of the pick up truck when the same pressure is applied on the gas pedal throughout (before and after the puncture).

The conservation law that applied here is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. This is because the energy the vehicle used in carrying the load (the tanks) was transformed to the energy that resulted in increasing  it's velocity (no new energy was formed as the pressure on the gas pedal remained the same).

A block of aluminum measures 4.0 cm x 5.0 cm x 2.0 cm is completely immersed in a tank of water.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

upthrust or BUOYANT FORCE =Vdg

volume=LWH

upthrust=(4cm×5cm×2cm)×1g/cm²×g

upthrust=40cm³×1g/cm³×g

upthrust=40gf or 0.04kg×10m/s²=0.4N

weight of the displaced liquid is upthrust.

so mass=40g or 0.04kg

upthrust=40gf or 0.4Nand mass of the displaced liquid=40g or 0.04kg

please mark brainliest, hope it helped
