A cheetah can run at a maximum speed

Physics
1 answer:
vivado [14]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

25 seconds (rounded up to nearest one second)

Explanation:

Cheetah's speed = 91.8 km/h

Gazelle's speed = 77.9 km/h

Both animals are running at full speed with the gazelle 97.3 m ahead.

Converting their respective speeds to m/s ;

Cheetah's speed = \frac{91.8 * 1000}{3600} = 25.5 m/s

Gazelle's speed = \frac{77.9 * 1000}{3600}  = 21.6 m/s (correct to one decimal place)

Assuming the gazelle stops, cheetah will run at 25.5 m/s - 21.6 m/s = 3.9 m/s to catch its prey (gazelle).

Time = distance ÷ speed

The time cheetah will take to catch its prey = 97.3 m ÷ 3.9 m/s = 24.94871795 s = 25 seconds (rounded up to nearest one second)

What is the wavelength of a soundwave moving at 340 m/s with a frequency of 265 Hz?
lyudmila [28]
Wave speed = frequency * wavelength
Rearrange so it's equal to wavelength. Do this by diving both sides by frequency to leave you with:
Wave speed / frequency = wavelength
340 / 265 = 1.2830 m

Which symbol represents a type of electromagnetic radiation released during radioactive decay?
Lena [83]
The correct option is (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma )

Explanation:
Now this question is a tricky one because all of these options are somehow involved in radioactive decay; however, in this case the SYMBOL is required NOT the elements. There are three symbols involved in radioactive decay, which are:
1. α for alpha decay
2. β for beta decay
3. γ for gamma decay 

In the options only one symbol is present which is gamma. Hence option (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma ) is the correct answer.
