Answer:
The car is decelerating and its acceleration is negative.
Explanation:
First thing to consider. The car traveling direction is not important to answer the question.
Second, there are two affirmations on each sentence. So, lets take definitions:
Deceleration: Reducing the acceleration, from one value to another. No matter if the acceleration for the moment is positive or negative.
Acceleration negative: the driver is applying a force to make speed=0, the sign of this force must negative in order for the car to stop, other way it will go faster. Acceleration is the change rate of speed, if the speed is going down, the total acceleration until cars stops must be negative.
Given:
f1 = 20 Hz
f2 = 20000 Hz
speed of sound at 20 degrees celcius = 343 m/s
Solution:
for f1 = 20 Hz,
Using the equation:
lambda = speed of sound / f1 = 343 / 20 = 17.15 m
For f2:
lambda = speed of sound / f2 = 343 / 20000 = 0.01775 m
Therefore the wavelength range of audible sound in air would be 17.15 m to 0.01775 m.
Answer:
The gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the honey droplet, D = 0.1 cm
radius of the honey droplet, R = 0.05 cm = 0.0005 m
surface tension of honey, γ = 0.052 N/m
Apply Laplace's law for a spherical membrane with two surfaces
Gauge pressure = P₁ - P₀ = 2 (2γ / r)
Where;
P₀ is the atmospheric pressure
Gauge pressure = 4γ / r
Gauge pressure = 4 (0.052) / (0.0005)
Gauge pressure = 416 Pa
Therefore, the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa
The question is incomplete, these are the missing parts of the question.
b) What is the baseball's acceleration in g's? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)
(b) What is the size of the force acting on it?
Answer:
a) -14333.3ms-2
b) -1462.58g
c) 2078N
Explanation:
The acceleration (deceleration) is easily found from from the information provided. Then the acceleration is obtained in terms of g as shown in the solution attached. The force is obtained from F=ma as shown in the image attached. Note the acceleration is negative because the ball was coming to rest. (The ball was caught).
