Answer:

(a) 0 J

(b) 828.96 J

(c) 828.96 J

(d) 828.96 J

(e) 0 J

(f) 828.96 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the rock is, m=3.18\ kg

Initial height of the rock is, h_{i}=26.6\ m

Final height of the rock is, h_f=0\ m

Initial velocity of the rock is, v_i=0\ m/s(Rest)

Acceleration due to gravity is, g=9.8\ m/s^2

(a)

Initial kinetic energy is given as:

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

Plug in the given values and solve for 'K_i'. This gives,

K_i=\frac{1}{2}\times 3.18\times 0^2=0

Therefore, initial kinetic energy is 0 J.

(b)

Initial potential energy is given as:

U_i=mgh_i\\U_i=3.18\times 9.8\times 26.6=828.96\ J

Therefore, initial potential energy is 828.96 J.

(c)

Mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy. It is always a constant value. Therefore,

ME=K_i+P_i\\ME=0+828.96=828.96\ J

Therefore, mechanical energy at 26.6 m is 828.96 J.

(d)

Now, at the final height of 0 m, the decrease in potential energy will be equal to the increase in the kinetic energy. In other words, the potential energy at the start will be converted to kinetic energy at the bottom.

Therefore, kinetic energy at the 0 m is given as:

K_f=U_i=828.96\ J

(e)

Potential energy at the final height is given as:

P_f=mgh_f=3.18\times 9.8\times 0=0\ J

Therefore, final potential energy is 0 J.

(f)

Total mechanical energy is a constant and doesn't depend on the height.

So, total mechanical energy at 0 m is same as that at 26.6 m.

Total mechanical energy is 828.96 J.

Answer:

The amplitude  is  A =  90.2 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The frequency of when sound is approaching observer is   f = 392 Hz

     The frequency as the move away from observer  is  f_ a =  330 \ Hz

    The time between the pitch are t =  10 \ s

Here you are the observer and your friends are the source of the sound

The period is mathematically evaluated as

       T =  2 t

as it is the time to complete one oscillation which from on highest pitch to the next highest pitch

Now T can also be mathematically represented as

          T = \frac{2 \pi}{w}

Where  w is the angular velocity

=>   \frac{2 \pi}{w}  =  2 * 10

=>   w =  0.314 \ rad/sec

Now using Doppler Effect,

   The source of the sound is approaching the observer

The

          f = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

         392  = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

Where A is the amplitude

    So when the source is moving away from the observer

         f_a =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

        330  =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

Here  f_o is the fundamental frequency

Dividing the both equation  we have

           \frac{392}{330}  =  \frac{f_o(\frac{v}{v-wA} )}{f_o(\frac{v}{v+wA}}

           1.1878  = \frac{v+wA}{v-wA}

         1.1878 v -  1.1878 wA = v+wA

        1.1878 v = 2.1878 wA

=>     A =  \frac{(0.1878 * (330))}{(2.1878)* (0.314)}

         A =  90.2 \ m

The tires on your truck have 0.35 m radius. In a straight line, you drive 2600 m. What is the angular displacement of the tire,
Travka [436]
1) In a circular motion, the angular displacement \theta is given by
\theta =  \frac{S}{r}
where S is the arc length and r is the radius. The problem says that the truck drove for 2600 m, so this corresponds to the total arc length covered by the tire: S=2600 m. Using the information about the radius, r=0.35 m, we find the total angular displacement:
\theta =  \frac{2600 m}{0.35 m} =7428 rad

2) If we put larger tires, with radius r=0.60 m, the angular displacement will be smaller. We can see this by using the same formula. In fact, this time we have:
\theta =  \frac{2600 m}{0.60 m}=4333 rad

What are some of the useful properties of current electricity?
Elena-2011 [213]

By definition we have to:

The electric current is the flow of electric charge due to the movement (usually of electrons) that a material travels.

Some properties are:

1) Electric conduction: The conductive materials have a large amount of free electrons, therefore, the passage of electricity is possible.

2) The current inside a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit. This is what is known as ohm's law:

I =\frac{V}{R}

3) The current can be continuous or alternate.

Alternating current is the electric current in which the magnitude and direction vary cyclically.

The direct current is the flow of electric charges that does not change direction with time.
