<h2>Answer: The Medium </h2><h2 />

<u>The medium is the main factor that differentiates a mechanical wave from an electromagnetic wave,</u> since the first can not propagate without its existence, while the second can propagate regardless of whether the medium exists or not.

In addition, it is the medium that will define, the propagation speed of the wave, according to its specific physical characteristics.

Long Jump: inital center of mass height of 1.08 m, final center of mass height of 0.42 m, projection velocity of 8.7 m/s, projec

sammy [17]

Answer:

1) The maximum jump height is reached at A. $0.337s$

2) The maximum center of mass height off of the ground is B. $1.64m$

3) The time of flight is C. $0.834s$

4) The distance of jump is B. $7.49m$

Explanation:

First of all we need to decompose velocity in its rectangular components, so

$v_{xi}=8.7m/s(cos 22.3\°)=8.05m/s= constant\\v_{yi}=8.7m/s(sin 22.3\°)=3.3m/s$

1) We use, $v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt$ , as we clear it for $t$ and using the fact that $v_{fy}=0$ at max height, we obtain $t=\frac{v_{iy}}{g} =\frac{3.3m/s}{9,8m/s^{2}} =0.337s$

2) We can use the formula $y_{max}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ for $t=0.337s$ , so

$y_{max}=1.08m+(3.3m/s)(0.337s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(0.337)^{2}}{2}=1.64m$

3) We can use the formula $y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ , to find total time of fligth, so $0.42=1.08+3.3t-\frac{(9.8)t^{2}}{2}\\0=-4.9t^{2}+3.3t+0.66$ , as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is $t=0.834s$

4) Finally, we use $x=v_{x}t=8.05m/s(0.834s)=6.71m$ , as it has an additional displacement of $0.77m$ due the leg extension we obtain,

$x=6.71m+0.77m=7.48m$ , aprox $x=7.49m$

Space debris left from old satellites and their launchers is becoming a hazard to other satellites. (a) Calculate the speed of a

Pie

Answer:

Part a)

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that orbital velocity at certain height from the surface of Earth is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

here we know that

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

$h = 900 km = 9.0 \times 10^5 m$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})}{6.37 \times 10^6 + 9.0 \times 10^5}}$

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

When a loose rivet is moving in same orbit but at 90 degree with the previous orbit path then in that case the relative speed of the rivet with respect to the satellite is given as

$v_{rel} = \sqrt{2} v$

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$
