Answer:

$5.52 \cdot 10^2$ Hz

Explanation:

For a wave, the relationship between velocity, wavelength and frequency is given by the wave equation:

$v=f\lambda$

where

v is the velocity

f is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem, we have:

v = 331 m/s

$\lambda=0.6 m$

Solving the equation for f, we find the frequency:

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{331}{0.6}=5.52\cdot 10^2 Hz$

A bowling ball is launched from the top of a building at an angle of 35° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 15 m/s. T

Mamont248 [21]

Let $y_0$ be the height of the building and thus the initial height of the ball. The ball's altitude at time $t$ is given by

$y=y_0+\left(15\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin35^\circ\,t-\dfrac g2t^2$

where $g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball reaches the ground when $y=0$ after $t=2.9\,\mathrm s$ . Solve for $y_0$ :

$0=y_0+\left(15\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin35^\circ(2.9\,\mathrm s)-\dfrac12\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.9\,\mathrm s)^2$

$\implies y_0\approx16.258\,\mathrm m$

so the building is about 16 m tall (keeping track of significant digits).

A force can exist between two charged particles or objects even if they're as small as subatomic particles. Between which of the

ASHA 777 [7]

If both particles have the SAME electrical charge, then they repel.
If they have DIFFERENT electrical charge, then they attract.

Protons have + charge .
Electrons have - charge .

So two protons (A) or two electrons (D) push apart.

One proton and one electron (C) pull together.

Please can some one explaine fore me What is work done

olga nikolaevna [1]

In Physics, 'work' has a very clear definition:

It's (strength of a force) times (distance through which the force acts).

'Work' has the units of Energy.

If you push against a shopping cart with 30 newtons of force, and
you keep pushing while the cart moves 4 meters, then you have
done (30 x 4) = 120 newton-meters of work = 120 "Joules".

A 17926-lb truck enters an emergency exit ramp at a speed of 75.6 ft/s. It travels for 6.4 s before its speed is reduced to 30.3

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

$F_{braking}=337299 pdl$

Explanation:

Impulse-Momentum relation:

$I=\Delta p\\ F_{total}*t=m(v_{f}-v{o})$

$F_{total}=-F_{braking}+mgsin{\theta}$

We solve the equations in order to find the braking force:

$F_{braking}=m(v_{o}-v{f})/t+mgsin{\theta}=17926(75.6-30.3)/6.4+17926*32.17*sin21.4=337299 pdl$

A certain moving electron has a kinetic energy of 0.991 × 10−19 J. Calculate the speed necessary for the electron to have this e

alisha [4.7K]

Answer: The speed necessary for the electron to have this energy is 466462 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy posessed by an object by virtue of its motion.

$K.E=\frac{1mv^2}{2}$

K.E= kinetic energy = $0.991\times 10^{-19}J$

m= mass of an electron = $9.109\times 10^{-31}kg$

v= velocity of object = ?

Putting in the values in the equation:

$0.991\times 10^{-19}J=\frac{1\times 9.109\times 10^{-31}kg\times v^2}{2}$

$v=466462m/s$

The speed necessary for the electron to have this energy is 466462 m/s
