Which of the following statements is accurate? A) Compressions and rarefactions occur throughout a transverse wave. B) The wavel

ength of both transverse and longitudinal waves is measured parallel to the direction of the travel of the wave. C) Sound waves passing through the air will do so as transverse waves, which vibrate vertically and still retain their horizontal positions. D) Amplitude of longitudinal waves is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave and represents the maximum distance the molecule has moved from its normal position.

Two water balloons of mass 0.35 kg collide and bounce off of each other
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Option D

2 m/s East

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of initial momentum equals the sum of final momentum

Momentum, p=mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity

Since the masses are the same then

m(u_1+u_2)=m(v_1+v_2)  

Therefore

u_1+u_2=v_1+v_2

where v_1 and v_2 are final velocities of objects while u_1 and u_2 are the initial velocities respectively

Taking East direction as positive then West as negative and by substitution

2.5+-2.25=v_1-1.75

Therefore

v_1=2 m/s hence East since it's positive

A 0.03 kg golf ball is hit off the tee at a speed of 34 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 0.003 s. What is the
Liula [17]

Answer:

The average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 0.03 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 34 m/s

Time of contact, \Delta t=0.003\ s

We need to find the average force on ball by the golf club. We know that the rate of change of momentum is equal to the net external force applied such that :

F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv-mu}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.03\ kg\times 34\ m/s}{0.003\ s}\\\\F=340\ N

So, the average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

A student wants to use a ramp to move boxes into a truck bed that is 3 m high. He has a choice of 2 different ramps. The length
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

the ramp with 6 m length will be easier to work with.

Explanation:

the mechanical advantage of the ramp can be calculated to find out which ramp will be easier to work with. The ramp with greater mechanical advantage will be easier to work with. The formula for the mechanical advantage of ramp is given as follows:

M.A = \frac{L}{h} \\\\

where,

M.A = Mechanical Advantage = ?

L = Length of Ramp

h = height of ramp = 3 m

<u>FOR L =4 m:</u>

<u></u>M.A = \frac{4\ m}{3\ m}\\\\M.A =  1.33<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>FOR L = 6 m:</u>

<u></u>M.A = \frac{6\ m}{3\ m}\\\\M.A =  2<u></u>

<u></u>

Since, the ramp with length 6 m has a greater mechanical advantage.

<u>Therefore, the ramp with 6 m length will be easier to work with.</u>

If the moon orbited twice as far from earth how far would it "fall" each second?
Kamila [148]

I can't imagine that this is going to do you much good, but
I'm sure going to enjoy solving it.
-------------------------
Skip this whole first section.
It was an attempt to master a bunch of trees, while
the forest was right there in front of me all the time.
Drop down below the double line.
-------------------------

Kepler's 3rd law says:

       (square of the orbital period) / (cube of the orbital radius) = constant

           T₀² = K R₀³

I put the zero subscripts in there, because you doubled 'R'
and I need to know how that affected 'T'.

           new-T² = K(2 R₀)³

           new-T² = 8 K (R₀)³  =  8 old-T₀²

          <u> new-T = √8  old-T</u>     <=== that's what I was after 

I just teased out the Moon's new orbital period if it's distance were doubled.
Instead of 1 month, it's now  √8  months.

To put a somewhat sharper point on it, the moon's period of revolution
changes from  27.322 days to 27.322√8  =  77.278 days (rounded) .

Using 385,000 km for the moon's current average distance, the current orbital speed is
             (2π x 385,000 km) / (27.322 days) = 1,024.7  m/s
(One online source says 1.023 km, so we're not doing too badly so far.)

================================================

I'm such a dummy.  I don't need to go through all of that.

If the moon were twice as far from Earth as it really is, then it would
average 770,000 km instead of the present 385,000 km.

That's 120.86 times the Earth's radius of  6,371 km.

So the acceleration of gravity out there would be

     (1 / 120.86)² of the (9.807 m/s²) that it is here on the surface.

     new-G  =  0.000671  m/s²


  Distance a dropped object falls = 1/2 g t²

                 In the first second, that's  1/2 g (1)² = 1/2 g

For an orbiting object, every second is the "first"second, because ...
as we often explain orbital motion qualitatively ... the Earth "falls away"
just as fast as the curved orbit falls.

Distance an object falls in the 1st second =

             1/2 G  =   0.000336 m/s  =  <em>0.336 millimeter per second</em>

I estimate the probability of a mistake somewhere during this process
at approx 99.99% .  But I don't have anything better right now, and I've
wasted too much time on it already, so I'll stick with it.
