Explanation:

The SI unit of power is the kilogram-meter2 per second cubed, which is called the watt (1 W = 1 kg-m2/s3). Since power is the energy used per unit of time, it is derived as the energy/time quotient.

Kelvin is a fundamental unit! It's a lot easier to measure temperature than to measure the motion of component particles. Hence, we can accept it as a fundamental quantity. Time is said to be a fundamental unit because it is not dependent on one or more units

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

0.011 m.

Explanation:

Energy stored in the spring = Energy of the projectile.

1/2ke² = mgh ................ Equation 1

Where k = spring constant, e = extension or compression, m = mass of the projectile, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.

make e the subject of the equation

e = √(2mgh/k)............................. Equation 2

Given: k = 12 N/cm = 1200 N/m, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg, h = 5.0 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

e = √(2×0.015×5/1200)

e = √(0.15/1200)

e = √(0.000125)

e = 0.011 m.

Two sound waves have equal displacement amplitudes, but wave 1 has two-thirds the frequency of wave 2. What is the ratio of the

zlopas [31]

Answer:

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Explanation:

c = Speed of wave

$\rho$ = Density of medium

A = Area

$\nu$ = Frequency

$\nu_1=\dfrac{2}{3}\nu_2$

Intensity of sound is given by

$I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A\omega)^2\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A2\pi \nu)^2$

So,

$I\propto \nu^2$

We get

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\nu_1^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}^2\nu_2^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

The ratio is $\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

NEED HELP FAST Are the circuits in a car parallel or series? how do you know?

guajiro [1.7K]

The answer is parallel

If the circuits in a car were series, they would go out at the same time.

I hope this helps! :3
