Answer:you riding your bike at 12m/s

Explanation: this is because momentum P = mass x velocity. With a bigger mass and a velocity of about 12m/s, you really have a great momentum.

A 460 g , 6.0-cm-diameter can is filled with uniform, dense food. It rolls across the floor at 1.1 m/s . Part A What is the can'

Reika [66]

Answer:

the can's kinetic energy is 0.42 J

Explanation:

given information:

Mass, m = 460 g = 0.46 kg

diameter, d = 6 cm, so r = d/2 = 6/2 = 3 cm = 0.03 m

velocity, v = 1.1 m/s

the kinetic energy of the can is the total of kinetic energy of the translation and rotational.

KE = $\frac{1}{2}$ I ω^2 + $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

where

I = $\frac{1}{2} mr^{2}$ and ω = $\frac{v}{r}$

thus,

KE = $\frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{1}{2} mr^{2}$ ( $\frac{v}{r}$ )^2 + $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{1}{2} mr^{2}$ $\frac{v^{2} }{r^{2}}$ + $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{4} mv^{2}$ + $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

= $\frac{3}{4} mv^{2}$

= $\frac{3}{4} (0.46) (1.1)^{2}$

= 0.42 J

Which statement regarding sound traveling in air is correct?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: D. A wave with a shorter wavelength is always faster than one with a longer wavelength

Explanation: "Imagine two sets of waves that have the same speed. If one set has a longer wavelength, it will have a lower frequency (more time between waves). If the other set has a shorter wavelength, it will have a higher frequency (less time between waves). Light moves even faster AND has shorter wavelengths."

Why it's not C: "The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer."

Why it's not B: "The frequency does not change as the sound wave moves from one medium to another. Since the speed changes and the frequency does not, the wavelength must change."

Why it's not A: "Do loud sounds travel faster than soft sounds? No. Both travel at the same speed The speed depends on the medium it passes through. Louder sounds are simply sound waves with higher amplitude traveling at the same speed."
