Artemon [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Option D

The frequency

Explanation:

The speed of wave is depedant only on the wavelength and frequency of waves since it is given by s=fw where s is the speed, f is frequency and w is the wavelength. Since the options given has only one factor, that is frequency, hence option D is correct. In case we had wavelength could be among the options, both would be correct.

Period is 86811.5 seconds.

Explanation:

${ \boxed{ \bf{T {}^{2} = (\frac{4 {\pi}^{2} }{GM}) {r}^{3} }}}$

${ \tt{T {}^{2} = \frac{4 {(3.14)}^{2} }{(6.6 \times {10}^{ - 11} ) \times (5.98 \times {10}^{24} )} \times {((35880\times {10}^{3}) } + (6370 \times {10}^{3} )) {}^{3} }} \\ \\ { \tt{T {}^{2} = 7.54 \times {10}^{9} }} \\ { \tt{T = \sqrt{7.54 \times {10}^{9} } }} \\ { \tt{T = 86811.5 \: seconds}}$

slader Question: A Model Rocket Is Launched Straight Upward With An Initial Speed Of 50m/s. Iit Accelerates With A Constant Upwa

xenn [34]

Answer:

Maximum height reached by the rocket is

$y_{max} = 308 m$

total time of the motion of rocket is given as

$T = 16.44 s$

Explanation:

Initial speed of the rocket is given as

$v_i = 50 m/s$

acceleration of the rocket is given as

$a = 2 m/s^2$

engine stops at height h = 150 m

so the final speed of the rocket at this height is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 50^2 = 2(2)(150)$

$v_f = 55.68 m/s$

so maximum height reached by the rocket is given as the height where its final speed becomes zero

so we will have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0 - 55.68^2 = 2(-9.81)(y - 150)$

$y_{max} = 308 m$

Now the total time of the motion of rocket is given as

1) time to reach the height of 150 m

$v_f - v_i = at$

$55.68 - 50 = 2 t$

$t_1 = 2.84 s$

2) time to reach ground from this height

$\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$-150 = 55.68 t - \frac{1}{2}(9.81) t^2$

$t_2 = 13.6 s$

so total time of the motion of rocket is given as

$T = 13.6 + 2.84 = 16.44 s$

Describe each of the following as a physical or chemical property. a. Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature.b. Apple slice

Cloud [144]

Answer: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature: Physical property

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid: Physical property

Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: Chemical property

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: Chemical property

Explanation:

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed during physical change.

Example: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Two particles P and Q each moves towards ther along Straight Line (M)(N), 51m long. P starts from M with velocity 5m/s and const

bagirrra123 [75]

The time required by the particles are as follows:

a. t = 1.5 seconds

b. t = 3 seconds

c. t = 0.4 seconds

<h3>What is the time required?</h3>

The time required for the particles to be at several distances apart is calculated using the equation of motion given below:

$S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

a) Time required to be 30 m apart:

Assuming the distance covered by P is S1 and distance covered by Q is S2.

S1 + S2 = 51 - 30

S1 + S2 = 21

Substituting the values of velocity and acceleration in the equation of motion above:

5t + 1/2t^2 + 6t + 3t^2 = 21

2t^2 + 11t - 21 = 0

Solving for time, t by factorization, t = 1.5 seconds

b) Time required to meet:

Assuming the distance covered by P is S1 and distance covered by Q is S2.

S1 + S2 = 51

Substituting the values of velocity and acceleration in the equation of motion above:

5t + 1/2t^2 + 6t + 3t^2 = 51

2t^2 + 11t - 51 = 0

Solving for time, t by factorization, t = 3 seconds

c) Time required for velocity of P is ¾ of the velocity of Q:

Using the equation of motion: V = u + at

Vp = 3/4 Vq

4Vp= 3Vq

Substituting the values:

4(5 + t) = 3(6 + 3t)

5t = 2

t = 0.4 seconds
