You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between

your feet and the ice. A friend throws you a 0.425 kg ball that is traveling horizontally at 12.0 m/s . Your mass is 68.5 kg . For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tutor Solution of Astronaut rescue. Part A If you catch the ball, with what speed do you and the ball move afterwards? Express your answer in centimeters per second.

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where,

m_1 = mass of ball

m_2 = mass of the person

u_1 = Velocity of ball before collision

u_2 = Velocity of the person before collision

v_1 = velocity of ball afer collision

v_2= velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

v_1 = v_2

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2

Re-arrenge to find v_2,

v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}

Our values are,

m_1= 0.425kg

u_1= 12m/s

m_2= 68.5kg

u_2= 0m/s

Substituting,

v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}

v_2 = 0.074m/s

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

A listener increases his distance from a sound source by a factor of 4.49.
noname [10]

Answer: Δβ (dB) = -13.1dB

Explanation:

The intensity of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

I ∝ 1/r²

I₁/I₂= r₂²/r₁² .....1

When the listener increases his distance from the source by a factor of 4.49.

Then,

r₂/r₁= 4.49

From equation 1

I₁/I₂ = (4.49)²

I₁/I₂ = 20.16

I₂/I₁ = 1/20.16

The change in sound intensity in dB can be given as

Δβ (dB) = 10 log(I₂/l₁) = 10log(1/20.6) = -13.1dB

Which equation shows the beta decay of a transuranium element?
kicyunya [14]

239        239     0

Np    →    Pu   +   e

93          94        -1  is the equation shows the beta decay of a transuranium element.

<h3>What is a Transuranium element?</h3>

These are elements whose atomic number is greater than that of uranium which is 92.

Neptunio has an atomic number of 93 which is why option D was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

True or False. If statement is false, change the word in parentheses to make it true.
xz_007 [3.2K]

False

Explanation:

Loudness is the human perception of sound intensity and not pitch. Pitch is a property of waves.

Loudness measures the intensity of sound to the hear and the frequency is often expressed in decibels.

  • Pitch is how high or low a note is being played.
  • It is a property that makes it to judge whether sounds are high or low.
  • Loudness on the other hand is depends on the human perception of how high or low sound is to a person.
