That kind of depends on where the ship is now, and where it wants to go.

A sled is pulled up to the top of a hill. At thetop of the hill the sled is released from rest and allowed to coastdown the hill
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

a.) the speed at the bottom is greater for the steeperhill

Explanation:

since the energy at the bottom of the steeper hilis greater

mgh =\frac{1}{mv^2}

As we can see from above that v is higher when h ishigher.

Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.0
Tema [17]

Answer:

841.5 Hz

Explanation:

Given

y = 50 cm = 0.5 m

d = 5.00 m

L = 12.0 m away from the wall

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

The image of the scenario is presented in the attached image.

When destructive interference is being experienced from 50 cm (0.5 m) parallel to the wall, the path difference between the distance of the two speakers from the observer is equal to half of the wavelength of the wave.

Let the distance from speaker one to the observer's new position be d₁

And the distance from the speaker two to the observer's new position be d₂

(λ/2) = |d₁ - d₂|

d₁ = √(12² + 3²) = 12.3693 m

d₂ = √(12² + 2²) = 12.1655 m

|d₁ - d₂| = 0.2038 m

(λ/2) = |d₁ - d₂| = 0.2038

λ = 0.4076 m

For waves, the velocity (v), frequency (f) and wavelength (λ) are related thus

v = fλ

f = (v/λ) = (343/0.4076) = 841.5 Hz

Hope this Helps!!!
