Any change in the speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". You'll hear "deceleration" used for slowing down but that's not technically correct.

Nuclear winter story. A crazy president is trying to solve the global warming problem and has successfully built a powerful H-bo
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A nuclear winter is a climatic phenomenon that would follow the detonation of several atomic bombs in the event that a nuclear war broke out. These bombs would cause firestorms that would raise smoke, dust and particles into the atmosphere that would end up in the stratosphere and eventually spread throughout the globe.

Explanation:

That idea is far fetched, because even though those same particles would absorb sunlight, it would raise the temperature in the stratosphere and cause a decrease in temperature in the Earth's layer. Unable to seep the sun's rays, many plant species would die and this would affect the entire food chain.

In addition, that temperature rise in the stratosphere would destroy part of the ozone layer, causing greater exposure to ultraviolet rays. This would end up affecting health and further damaging plant species.

You toss a bowling ball straight up into the air with a speed of 2.1 m/s. How long does it take the bowling ball to reach its hi
lara [203]

Time taken by the bowling ball to reach its highest point= 0.214 s

initial velocity= Vi=2.1 m/s

Final velocity= Vf=0 as the velocity at the highest point is zero.

acceleration= g= -9.8 m/s²

using the kinematic equation Vf= Vi + at

0= 2.1 + (-9.8)t

t= -2.1/-9.8

t=0.214 s

Thus the time taken by the bowling ball to reach its highest point is 0.214 s

If a sound with frequency fs is produced by a source traveling along a line with speed vs. If an observer is traveling with spee
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

457.81 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, it is stated that it is a question under Doppler effect.

As a result, we use this form

fo = (c + vo) / (c - vs) × fs

fo = observed frequency by observer =?

c = speed of sound = 332 m/s

vo = velocity of observer relative to source = 45 m/s

vs = velocity of source relative to observer = - 46 m/s ( it is taking a negative sign because the velocity of the source is in opposite direction to the observer).

fs = frequency of sound wave by source = 459 Hz

By substituting the the values to the equation, we have

fo = (332 + 45) / (332 - (-46)) × 459

fo = (377/ 332 + 46) × 459

fo = (377/ 378) × 459

fo = 0.9974 × 459

fo = 457.81 Hz
