In 3 seconds, a wave generator produces 15 pulses that spread over a distance of 45 centimeters. Calculate its velocity.

Physics

NemiM [27]2 years ago

We don't even need to know how many pulses were produced
in those 3 seconds.

The beginning of the first pulse took 3 seconds to travel
45 centimeters from the generator.

Its speed is    (45 cm) / (3 sec)  =  15 cm/sec.

You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 30 kg from a tungsten rod 2.8 m long by 1.5 mm by 2.6 mm. You measure the stretch of the ro
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Young's modulus (Y) = 3.56×10^11 N/m^2

The speed of sound in tungsten = 6166.4 m/s

Explanation:

Young's modulus (Y) = stress/strain

Stress = force/area

Force = mg = 30×9.8 = 294 N

Area = 1.5 × 2.6 = 3.9 mm^2 = 3.9/10^6 = 3.9×10^-6 m^2

Stress = 294/3.9×10^-6 = 7.54×10^7 N/m^2

Strain = extension/length

Extension = 0.000594 m

Length = 2.8 m

Strain = 0.000594/2.8 = 2.12×10^-4

Y = 7.54×10^7/2.12×10^-4 = 3.56×10^11 N/m^2

Y = h × rho × g

rho = 18.7 g/cm^3 = 18.7 g/cm^3 × 1 kg/1000 g × (100 cm/1 m)^3 = 18,700 kg/m^3

h = 3.56×10^11/(18,700×9.8) = 1.94×10^6 m

From the equations of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh =

Initial speed (u) = 0 m/s

v = sqrt (2×9.8×1.94×10^6)

v = 6166.4 m/s

The search for black holes involves searching for The search for black holes involves searching for Group of answer choices sing
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Large spherical regions from which no light is detected

Explanation:

A black hole is an object that has an extremely high density such that it possesses very powerful gravitational force that prevents the escape of all objects including light from it, and consumes nearby objects.

Due to the power of the gravitational force of a black hole, at the center, objects are infinitesimally compressed resulting in the inapplicability of the concept of space and time and the location is known as a singularity

Therefore, the search for black holes involves searching for <em>large spherical regions from which no light is detected</em>.

Although planets orbit the Sun in ellipses, all the planetary orbits are fairly close to circular and not very eccentric.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Sun rotates in this same, right-hand-rule direction. All planetary orbits lie in nearly the same plane. All planetary orbits are nearly circular (eccentricity near zero).

1. I drop a penny from the top of the tower at the front of Fort Collins High School and it takes 1.85 seconds to hit the ground
ladessa [460]

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is  9.8 m/s² .
The speed of a falling object keeps increasing smoothly,
in such a way that the speed is always 9.8 m/s faster than
it was one second earlier.

If you 'drop' the penny, then it starts out with zero speed. 
If you also start the clock at the same instant, then

         After  1.10 sec,  Speed = (1.10 x 9.8) = 10.78 meters/sec


         After  1.85 sec,  Speed = (1.85 x 9.8) = 18.13 meters/sec

But you want this second one given in a different unit of speed.
OK then:

     =  (18.13 meter/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (1 mile/1609.344 meter)

     =    (18.13 x 3,600 / 1609.344)  (mile/hr)  =  40.56 mph  (rounded)

We did notice that in an apparent effort to make the question
sound more erudite and sophisticated, you decided to phrase
it in terms of 'velocity'.  We can answer it in those terms, if we
ASSUME that there is no wind, and the penny therefore doesn't
acquire any horizontal component of motion on its way down.

With that assumption in force, we are able to state unequivocally
and without fear of contradiction that each 'speed' described above ...
with the word 'downward' appended to it ... does become a 'velocity'.
