Answer:

v = 620.17 m/s

Explanation:

There are different formulas for calculating the speed of a wave. Based on the given parameters, the speed of the wave can be estimated as:

v = sqrt(breaking tensile strength/density)

Where:

The breaking tensile strength = 3*10^9 N/m^2

Density = 7800 kg/m^3

Therefore, we can estimate the speed of the wave as shown below:

v = sqrt(3*10^9/7800) = sqrt(384615.3846) = 620.17 m/s

Kay [80]

Answer:

333.3 m

Explanation:

Given

$m =100g\ =\ 0.1kg\\v = 100 m/s\\g = 10 m/s ^2$

Potential energy = $\frac{2}{3}\ of\ Kinetic\ energy$ ......Equation(1)

We know that

Potential energy=mgh

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

Now From the Equation(1)

$mgh=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}\\ gh=\frac{v^{2} }{3} \\10 * h=\ \frac{10000}{3}\\ h=\ \frac{1000}{3} \\h=333.3\ m$

A 2.0-kg ball has a momentum of 25kg.m/s what is the ball's speed?

Reil [10]

We know, momentum = mass * speed

25kgm/s = 2 kg * s

s = 25/2 = 12.5 m/s

Determine the inductive reactance for a 50 mH inductor that is across a 15 volt, 400 Hz source.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, $L=50\ mH=0.05\ H$

Voltage source, V = 15 volt

Frequency, f = 400 Hz

The inductive reactance of the circuit is equivalent to the impedance. It opposes the flow of electric current throughout the circuit. It is given by :

$X_L=2\pi fL$

$X_L=2\pi \times 400\ Hz\times 0.05\ H$

$X_L=125.66\ \Omega$

$X_L=125.7\ \Omega$

So, the inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω. Hence, this is the required solution.

1. A wheelchair ramp. Instead of using lifting force on the wheelchair, You use push or pull force on it.

2. A slide. Instead of throwing down an item, It uses gravitational potential energy make an object "move" down the slide.

3.A screw. It's reducing the force by twisting the screw out of something instead of pulling it out. (Sorry about my bad grammar).
