How can a megaphone used by a cheerleader allow people on the opposite side of a field to hear her better?

1 answer:

7 0

The megaphone is cupping the area around her mouth and it is like with your hands, if you cover around them the noise will be louder. It is because it is hollow and there isn't anything to block the noise through the megaphone.

the kinetic energy of an object of mass in moving with a velocity of 5 MS -1 is 25j what will be its kinetic energy when its vel

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy

Is the type of energy an object has due to its speed. It's proportional to the square of the speed.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

The object has a kinetic energy of K=25 J when moving at v=5 m/s, thus the mass can be calculated by solving for m:

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2K}{v^2}$

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2*25}{5^2}=2$

m = 2 Kg

If the speed is doubled, v=10 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 10^2$

K = 100 J

If the speed is tripled, v=15 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 15^2$

K = 225 J

When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J

One end of a 7-cm-long spring is attached to the ceiling. When a 5.4 kg mass is hung from the other end, the spring is stretched

mash [69]

Answer:

2.63 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law gives that the force F is equal to cy where c is spring constant and x is extension

Making c the subject of the formula then

$c=\frac {F}{y}$

Since F is gm but taking the given mass to be F

$c=\frac {5.4 kg}{4.3 cm}=1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930$

By substitution now considering F to be 3.3 kg

$y=\frac {3.3 kg}{1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930}=2.6277777777777 cm\approx 2.63 cm$

The particles that make up protons and neutrons are called

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Quark

Explanation:

In the past the proton,neutron and electron were believed to be indivisible. Quarks were later discovered to be particles that make up the proton and neutron. Quarks are known as fast moving points of energy and are usually joined to one another through gluons. Neutron has two down quarks and one up quark while proton has two up quarks and one down quark.

devlian [24]

Force acting during collision is internal so momentum is conserve so (initial momentum = final momentum) in both directions Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1150 kg and was approaching at 5.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 750 kg and was approaching at 25.0 m/s due west. Let Vx is and Vy are final velocities of car in +x and +y direction respectively. initial momentum in +ve x (east) direction = final momentum in +ve x direction (east)

- 750*25 + 1150*0 = (750+1150)
Vx initial momentum in +ve y (north) direction = final momentum in +ve y direction (north)

750*0 - 1150*5 = (750+1150)
Vy from here you can calculate Vx and Vy so final velocity V is

V=(√V2x+V2y)

and angle make from +ve x axis is

θ=tan−1(VyVx)

 kinetic energy loss in the collision = final KE - initial KE
