A) How fast was the brick moving after 4s?
Vf=?
Vi=0 (because it was dropped, not thrown)
A= -9.8m/s^2 (gravity)
t= 4s
Use the equation Vf=Vi+A(t)
Vf=0+(-9.8)(4)
Final answer: Vf= -39.2m/s
b) How far did the brick fall after 4s?
D=?
Vi=0
t=4s
A=-9.8m/s2
**You do have the final velocity, but it is best to avoid using numbers that you have calculated yourself.**
Use the equation: d=Vi(t)+0.5(A)(t)^2
d=(0)(4)+0.5(-9.8)(4)^2
d=(-4.9)(16)
d=-78.4m
Therefore, after 4s the brick fell 78.4m

Answer:

v = 80.48 km/h.

Explanation:

We have,

Acceleration of a train is 2 km/h/s or 7200 km/h²

Initial velocity of a train is 20 km/h

It is required to find the velocity after 30 seconds or 0.0084 h

Let v is the final speed. Using equation of kinematics as :

v=u+at\\\\v=20+7200\times 0.0084\\\\v=80.48\ km/h

So, the final speed of the train is 80.48 km/h.

A rotating merry-go-round makes one complete revolution in 4.0s a) what is the linear speed of a child seated 1.2 meters from th
lianna [129]

Answer:a) The linear speed of the rotating merry-go-round is 1.884 m/s.

b) The acceleration of the rotating merry-go-round  device is 2.95m/s^2.

Explanation:

a) linear speed of the device:

Distance =2\pi (r)

Child seated 1.2 meters from the center, which means that radius ,r = 1.2 meters

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.0 seconds

\text{Linear speed}=v=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{2\pi r}{t}=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 1.2 m}{4.0 s}=\frac{7.536 m}{4.0 s}=1.884 m/s

The linear speed of the rotating merry-go-round is 1.884 m/s.

b) Acceleration

Linear velocity ,v = 1.884 m/s

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

=\frac{1.884 m/s\times 1.884m/s}{1.2 m}=2.95m/s^2

The acceleration of the rotating merry-go-round  device is 2.95m/s^2.

Define longitudinal wave​
Alja [10]

longitudinal wave, wave consisting of a periodic disturbance or vibration that takes place in the same direction as the advance of the wave. ... Sound moving through air also compresses and rarefies the gas in the direction of travel of the sound wave as they vibrate back and forth.

<u>FORMULA</u>

<h2>y(x,t) = y0 \: cos \: (w(t -  \frac{x}{c} ))</h2>

y = displacement of the point on the traveling sound wave

x = distance the point has traveled from the wave's source

y_0 = amplitude of the oscillations

\omega = angular frequency of the wave

t = time elapsed

c = speed of the wave
