Answer: 99.1 seconds

Explanation: You know that the total distance is 34km, and the speed of the sound is 343m/s.

Now, the total time that takes to something with a given velocity, to reach a distance D, is:

T = D/v

where D = 34km and v = 343m/s

Now, here we have different units, so we must convert the kilomeres into meters, this can be done as: 1km = 1000m then, 34km = 1000*34m = 34000m

Then the total time is:

T = 34000m/343m/s = 99.1 seconds

Answer:

99 s

Explanation:

distance = rate × time

34000 m = (343 m/s) t

t = 99 s

A 85 kg lineman tackles a 90 kg receiver. The receiver is running 5.8 m/s, and the lineman is moving 4.1 m/s, at a right angle t
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of lineman,m=85 kg

Mass of receiver,m'=90 kg

Speed of receiver,v'=5.8 m/s

Speed of lineman,v=4.1 m/s

\theta=90^{\circ}

We have to find the their velocity immediately after the tackle.

Initial momentum,P_i=\sqrt{p^2_1+p^2_2}=\sqrt{(85\times 4.1)^2+(90\times 5.8)^2}=627.6 kgm/s

According to law of conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum=(m+m')V

627.6=(85+90)V=175V

V=\frac{627.6}{175}=3.59 m/s

A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 94.5 km/h except for a 22.0 min rest stop. If the person's average speed
qwelly [4]
From the average speed you can fix an equation:

Average speed = distance / time

You know the average speed = 65.1 kg / h, then

65.1 = distance / total time,

where total time is the time traveling plus 22.0 minutes

Call t the time treavelling and pass 22 minutes to hours:

65.1 = distance / [t + 22/60] ==> distance = [t + 22/60]*65.1

 
From the constant speed, you can fix a second equation

Constant speed = distance / time traveling

94.5 = distance / t ==> distance = 94.5 * t

The distance is the same in both equations, then you have:

[t +22/60] * 65.1 = 94.5 t

Now you can solve for t.

65.1t + 22*65.1/60 = 94.5t

94.5t - 65.1t = 22*65.1/60

29.4t = 23.87

t = 23.87 / 29.4

t  = 0.812 hours

distance = 94.5 km/h * 0.812 h = 76.7 km

Answers: 1) 0.81 hours, 2) 76.7 km

WORTH 47 POINTS!!! It's EASY too!
Vikentia [17]
The Factors are Temperature and kinetic energy, the temperature is because the particles are going to move fast which means the particles in a solid container or in solid pattern they will actually vibrate and they will expand , when temperature increase, more kinetic energy between the particles .
examples is that in the steel when you heat a steel the particles inside it will vibrate then the particles speed up because the vibration increases, therefore the temperature increases so a a thermal expansion occurs that the vibration of the particles will take up more space so the steel bar expands slightly in all Direction if the temperature Falls the reverse happens and the material or steel contracts which means get smaller .
another example is the thermometer, the thermometer has a liquid inside it which is Mercury or alcohol this liquid expands when the temperature rises, the tube is made narrow so that a small increase in volume of the liquid produces a large movement along the tube.

The potential energy of a 1.7 x 10-3 kg particle is described by U (x )space equals space minus (17 space J )space cos open squa
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a particle of mass

M = 1.7 × 10^-3 kg

Given a potential as a function of x

U(x) = -17 J Cos[x/0.35 m]

U(x) = -17 Cos(x/0.35)

Angular frequency at x = 0

Let find the force at x = 0

F = dU/dx

F = -17 × -Sin(x/0.35) / 0.35

F = 48.57 Sin(x/0.35)

At x = 0

Sin(0) =0

Then,

F = 0 N

So, from hooke's law

F = -kx

Then,

0 = -kx

This shows that k = 0

Then, angular frequency can be calculated using

ω = √(k/m)

So, since k = 0 at x = 0

Then,

ω = √0/m

ω = √0

ω = 0 rad/s

So, the angular frequency is 0 rad/s
