Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The sprinter at the very start of the race , pushes hard the ground under his feet in backward direction  . The harder he presses the ground backwards  , the greater reaction force he receives back in forward direction , throwing him forward  direction. This force creates acceleration.

b ) The frictional force acting in opposite direction on the motion of ball creates   - ve acceleration .

c ) The frictional force acting opposite to the motion of the ball creates - ve acceleration. The gravitational force acting on the ball in downward direction creates positive  acceleration on the ball.

d ) The restoring force created in the bungee chord due to its extension  creates acceleration in him in upward direction.

7.22 Ignoring reflection at the air–water boundary, if the amplitude of a 1 GHz incident wave in air is 20 V/m at the water surf
Serga [27]

Answer:

z = 0.8 (approx)

Explanation:

given,

Amplitude of 1 GHz incident wave in air = 20 V/m

Water has,

μr = 1

at 1 GHz, r = 80 and σ = 1 S/m.

depth of water when amplitude is down to  1 μV/m

Intrinsic impedance of air = 120 π  Ω

Intrinsic impedance of  water = \dfrac{120\pi}{\epsilon_r}

Using equation to solve the problem

  E(z) = E_0 e^{-\alpha\ z}

E(z) is the amplitude under water at z depth

E_o is the amplitude of wave on the surface of water

z is the depth under water

\alpha = \dfrac{\sigma}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{\Epsilon_r}}

\alpha = \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{(120\pi)^2}{80}}

\alpha =21.07\ Np/m

now ,

  1 \times 10^{-6} = 20 e^{-21.07\times z}

  e^{21.07\times z}= 20\times 10^{6}

taking ln both side

21.07 x z = 16.81

z = 0.797

z = 0.8 (approx)

Two cars, one in front of the other, are traveling down the highway at 25 m/s. the car behind sounds its horn, which has a frequ
netineya [11]
<span>You are given two cars, one in front of the other, that are traveling down the highway at 25 m/s. You are also given a frequency of 500 Hz of the car travelling behind it. You are asked what is the frequency heard by the driver of the lead car. This problem can be solved using the Doppler effect

sound frequency heard by the lead car = [(speed of sound + lead car velocity)/( speed of sound + behind car velocity)] * (sound of frequency of the behind car)
</span>sound frequency heard by the lead car = [(340 m/s + 25 m/s)/(340 m/s - 25 m/s)] * (500 Hz)
sound frequency heard by the lead car = 579 Hz

At the end of the Shock Wave roller coaster ride, the 6000-kg train of cars (includes passengers) is allowed from a speed of 20
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

56250 N

Explanation:

mass, m = 6000 kg

initial speed, u = 20 m/s

final speed, v = 5 m/s

distance, s = 20 m

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

5 x 5 = 20 x 20 + 2 a x 20

25 = 400 + 40 a

a = - 9.375 m/s^2

Braking force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 6000 x 9.375

F = 56250 N

4. The nucleus of an isotope differs in the number of
solong [7]

Answer: A plz brainliest me

An isotope is one of two or more forms of the same chemical element. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.
