Answer:
The momentum would be doubled
Explanation:
The magnitude of the momentum of the freight train is given by:

where
m is the mass of the train
v is its speed
In this problem, we have that the speed of the train is unchanged, while the mass of the train is doubled:

therefore, the new momentum is

so, the momentum has also doubled.
Answer:
required distance is 233.35 m
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Sound intensity
= 1.62 × 10⁻⁶ W/m²
distance r = 165 m
at what distance from the explosion is the sound intensity half this value?
we know that;
Sound intensity
is proportional to 1/(distance)²
i.e
∝ 1/r²
Now, let r² be the distance where sound intensity is half, i.e
₂ =
₁/2
Hence,
₂/
₁ = r₁²/r₂²
1/2 = (165)²/ r₂²
r₂² = 2 × (165)²
r₂² = 2 × 27225
r₂² = 54450
r₂ = √54450
r₂ = 233.35 m
Therefore, required distance is 233.35 m
Answer:
(C) Average Velocity = 25 m/s due North
