The  final kinetic energy of the ball is 2.45 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In absence of frictional effect, the mechanical energy of the apple must be conserved during the fall. So we can write:

U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f

where :

U_i is the initial potential energy, at the top

K_i is the initial kinetic energy, at the top

U_f is the final potential energy, at the bottom

K_f is the final kinetic energy, at the bottom

By explicing the potential energy, we can rewrite the equation as:

mgh_i + K_i = mgh_f + K_f

where:

m = 0.5 kg is the mass of the apple

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h_i = 2 m is the initial height

h_f=1.50 m is the final height

The initial kinetic energy is zero, since the ball starts from rest:

K_i = 0

Therefore we can solve the equation for K_f, the final kinetic energy of the ball:

K_f = mg(h_i-h_f)=(0.5)(9.8)(2-1.50)=2.45 J

PLEASE HELP ME!!!
denis-greek [22]
The reason for that is that P-waves (primary waves) travel faster than S-waves (secondary waves).

If we call v_p the speed of the primary waves and v_s the speed of the secondary waves, and we call S the distance of the seismogram from the epicenter, we can write the time the two waves take to reach the seismogram as
t_P =  \frac{S}{v_P}
t_S= \frac{S}{v_S}

So the lag time between the arrival of the P-waves and of the S-waves is
\Delta t = t_S-t_P= \frac{S}{v_S}- \frac{S}{v_P}= S(\frac{1}{v_S}- \frac{1}{v_P})
We see that this lag time is proportional to the distance S, therefore the larger the distance, the greater the lag time.

There are no rules that describe how positive energy behaves
in the presence of negative energy, because there is no such
thing as negative energy.

A guitar string is 90 cm long and has a mass of 3.7 g . The distance from the bridge to the support post is L=62cm, and the stri
zvonat [6]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of frequency in a string from the nodes, the tension, the linear density and the length of the string, that is,

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

Here

n = Number of node

T = Tension

\mu = Linear density

L = Length

Replacing the values in the frequency and value of n is one for fundamental overtone

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{1}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 281.2Hz}

Similarly plug in 2 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{2}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 562.4Hz}

Similarly plug in 3 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{3}{2(62*10^{-2})}\bigg (\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}} \bigg)

\mathbf{f= 843.7Hz}
