Speed of wave = frequency x wavelength
= 250 x 6 = 1500 m/s.

A stationary 6-kg shell explodes into three pieces. One 4.0 kg piece moves horizontally along the negative x-axis. The other two

natta225 [31]

Answer:

-15 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity of the 4.0 kg fragment is shown below:

For this question, we use the correlation of the momentum along with horizontal x axis

Given that

Weight of stationary shell = 6 kg

Other two fragments each = 1.0 kg

Angle = 60

Speed = 60 m/s

Based on the above information, the velocity = v is

$1\times 60 \times cos\ 60 + 1\times 60 \times cos\ 60 - 4\ v = 0$

$\frac{60}{2} + \frac{60}{2} - 4\ v = 0$

$v = \frac{60}{4}$

= -15 m/s

For a top player, a tennis ball may leave the racket on the serve with a speed of 55 m/s (about 120 mi/h). If the ball has a mas

inn [45]

Answer:

Yes is large enough

Explanation:

We need to apply the second Newton's Law to find the solution.

We know that,

$F= ma$

And we know as well that

$a= \frac{v}{t}$

Replacing the aceleration value in the equation force we have,

$F= \frac{mv}{t}$

Substituting our values we have,

$F= \frac{(0.060)(55)}{4*10^{-3}}$

$F=825N$

The weight of the person is then,

$W = mg$

$W = (60)(9.8) = 558N$

<em>We can conclude that force on the ball is large to lift the ball</em>

Which of the following properties of water help to explain why icebergs float in the ocean?

crimeas [40]

The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.
