Answer:

-670kg*m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, the force that the smaller car exerts on the bigger car is equal and opposite to the force that the bigger car exerts on the smaller car:

F_{BS}=-F_{SB},

where is F_{BS}  is the force that the bigger care exerts on the smaller car, and F_{SB} is the force that the smaller care exerts on the bigger car.

And if the force exerted  has the same magnitude, then so should the Impulse I, because

I=F*\Delta t

The impulse on the smaller car due to the force exerted by the bigger car is:

I_{BS}=F_{BS}*\Delta t=670kg*m/s

and the impulse on the bigger car due to the smaller car is

I_{SB}=F_{SB}*\Delta t.

Since

F_{BS}=-F_{SB}

then

I_{SB}=-F_{BS}*\Delta t=-670kg*m/s

\boxed{I_{SB}=-670kg*m/s}

The impulse of the smaller car on the larger car is -670kg*m/s.

As air temperature approaches the dew point, what happens to the relative humidity?
AleksAgata [21]
<span>Relative Humidity is a percentage based on how much moisture is in the air versus how much moisture the air can hold. The dewpoint is the temperature that the atmosphere must reach for a parcel of air to become fully saturated. That being said, if the temperature outside is 30 degrees (F or C doesn't matter), and the dewpoint goes from 10 to 20, then the relative humidity has increased, meaning there is more moisture present in the atmosphere.
The easiest way to look at pressure is by looking at the number of air molecules that are in a closed container. Gas molecules expand as they warm, so warming up a container of air means that these molecule will attempt to expand, thus increasing the pressure. Take for instance a soda bottle filled with air, if you heat a soda bottle, then the gases inside will attempt to expand (raising the pressure) and eventually the bottle will explode, but if you stick the same soda bottle in dry ice, the soda bottle will contract, due to decreased pressure. </span> Source(s): <span> Military Meteorologist

A Explain why the sound produced by the horn of an approaching car
aleksklad [387]
When a car approaches you, the sound waves that reach you have a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency. You hear a sound with a higher pitch. When the car moves away from you, the sound waves that reach you have a longer wavelength and lower frequency.

?? ⬇️

An approaching source moves closer during period of the sound wave so the effective wavelength is shortened, giving a higher pitch since the velocity of the wave is unchanged. Similarly the pitch of a receding sound source will be lowered.

The Doppler effect is an effect observed in light and sound waves as they move toward or away from an observer. One simple example of the Doppler effect is the sound of an automobile horn. Picture a person standing on a street corner. A car approaches, blowing its horn.

Comparing two waves of the same wavelength, a higher frequency is associated with faster movement. Comparing two waves of different wavelengths, a higher frequency doesn't always indicate faster movement, although it can. Waves of different wavelengths can have the same frequency.

The pitch of a sound is our ear's response to the frequency of sound. Whereas loudness depends on the energy of the wave. ... The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency while loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of sound waves.

What is the equation describing the motion of a mass on the end of a spring which is stretched 8.8 cm from equilibrium and then
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  t)

Explanation:

We first identify the elements of this simple harmonic motion:

The amplitude A is 8.8cm, because it's the maximum distance the mass can go away from the equilibrium point. In meters, it is equivalent to 0.088m.

The angular frequency ω can be calculated with the formula:

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Where k is the spring constant and m is the mass of the particle.

Now, since the spring starts stretched at its maximum, the appropriate function to use is the positive cosine in the equation of simple harmonic motion:

x=A\cos(\omega t)

Finally, the equation of the motion of the system is:

x=(0.088m)\cos(\omega t)

or

x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  t)
