Answer: the object with less mas will move faster than the other object.

Explanation: Let's do a simplification of this case, I will only use newton's second law, this law says F = ma

where f is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.

Then, if in bot objects the force is the same, let's call it F, we have:

F = 100kg*a1

and

F = 1kg*a2

now let's isolate the accelerations:

a1 = F/100kg

a2 = F/1kg

here we can see that a2 is bigger than a1, this means that the object with less mass has a bigger acceleration, then the object with less mass will move faster than the object with more mass.

The object with a mass of 100 kg would move slower than the object with a mass of 1 kg. This is because a greater force is required to move the object with a mass of 100 kg compared to the object of 1 kg.

A wave traveling in the positive x-direction with a frequency of 50.0 Hz is shown in the figure below. Find the following values
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or \lambda=20.0cm

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{1}{T} were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

50.0=\frac{1}{T} so

T=\frac{1}{50.0} and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

50.0=\frac{v}{20.0} and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!

One car has two and a half times the mass of a second car, but only half as much kinetic energy. When both cars increase their s
Leokris [45]

Answer:

v_1 = 7.96 m/s

v_2 = 17.8 m/s

Explanation:

Let the mass of the other car is "m" and its kinetic energy is

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

now the mass of the first car is two and half times and its kinetic energy is half that of other car

so we will have

\frac{1}{2}(2.5m)v_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2}mv^2)

2.5 v_1^2 = 0.5 v^2

v_1 = 0.447 v

now speed of both cars is increased by value of 9 m/s

so now we will have same kinetic energy for both cars

\frac{1}{2}(2.5 m)(0.447v + 9)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v + 9)^2

2.5(0.447 v + 9)^2 = (v + 9)^2

1.58(0.447v + 9) = v + 9

0.293v = 5.22

v = 17.8 m/s

so speed of first car is

v_1 = 0.447 v = 7.96 m/s

v_2 = 17.8 m/s

How many minutes of daylight do we gain after winter solstice
serg [7]

Answer:

Depends on which hemisphere you are belong to and how much distance you are away from Ecuador.

Explanation:

Minutes of daylight is equal on everywhere only on the equinox days (21 March and 23 September). On other days it depends on the place that you are belong to. On winter solstice, places on Ecuador have 12 hours daylight. North side of Ecuador have less, south side of Ecuador have more hour of daylight.

a spaceship, at rest in a certain reference frame s, is given a speed increment of 0.500c. it is then given a further 0.500c inc
bezimeni [28]

In order to give a spaceship at rest in a specific reference frame s a speed increment of 0.500c, seven increments are required. Then, in this new frame, it receives an additional 0.500c increment.

The speed of an object, also known as v in kinematics, is a scalar quantity that refers to the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time. The distance travelled by an object in a certain period of time divided by the length of the period gives the object's average speed in that period.

The spacecraft moves at v1 = 0.5c after the initial increment.The equation becomes V2 = V+V1/1+V*V1/c after the second one. 2 V2 = 0.5c+0.50c/1+(0.50c)^2/c^ 2 = 0.80c

Likewise, V3 = 0.929c

V4 = 0.976c

V5 = 0.992c

V6 = 0.99c

V7 = 0.999c
