Answer:

730.4 m

Explanation:

The sound waves travels with a uniform motion (=constant velocity), therefore we can calculate the distance it travels using the formula:

d=vt

where

d is the distance

v is the speed of the sound wave

t is the time taken

In this problem we have:

v = 332 m/s is the speed of sound in air

t = 2.2 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the distance between the tower and the person is

d=(332)(2.2)=730.4 m

e-lub [12.9K]

Assume a maximum stopping acceleration of g/2 where g is acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

2.99 m/s

Explanation:

Stopping distance, s = 3 ft = 0.914 m

final velocity, v = 0

a = g/2 = 4.9 m/s²

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values to find the speed of train:

0 -u^2 = 2\times -4.9 \times 0.914 \\u^2=8.96 \\u=2.99 m/s

Which of the following cars have the most kinetic energy
faltersainse [42]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

\huge\boxed{OptionA}

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>DATA:</h2><h3>Blue Car: </h3>

mass = 4 kg

velocity = 5 m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Orange truck:</h3>

Mass= 2kg

Velocity = 7m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Grey Car:</h3>

mass = 6 kg

velocity = 4m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Green Car:</h3>

Mass = 8 kg

Velocity = 3 m/s^2

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>SOLUTION:</h2>

By the equation of kinetic energy,

                                       

                                         K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where,

            K.E is kinetic energy

            m is mass

            v is velocity

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic energy of Blue car:</h3>

 

Directly substitute the variables in the equation,

                                       

                                       K.E = \frac{1}{2}x4x5^2

Simplify the equation,

                                       K.E = 50 J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Silver Car:</h3>

                                           

 Directly substitude the variable in the equation,

                                                           

                                        K.E = \frac{1}{2}x6x4^2

Simplify the equation,

                                        K.E = 48J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Green Car:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variables in the equation,

                                         

                                         K.E = \frac{1}{2}x8x3^2

Simplify the Equation,

                                         

                                         K.E = 36J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Orange Truck:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variable,

                                        K.E = \frac{1}{2}x 2x7^2

Simplify the equation,

                                     

                                        K.E = 49J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

As you can see that the highest value of kinetic energy is of Blue SUV thus it will be out answer.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The Starship Enterprise is powered by combining matter with antimatter. Suppose 1 kg of each are combined and ejected backward at the speed of light, what is the final speed of the Enterprise starting from rest? Assume that the mass of the Enterprise is 10,000 kg and the spaceship does not reach relativistic speed.
