Answer:

v = 33.66 m/s

Explanation:

Let hockey puck is moving at constant speed v

so here we have

d = vt

so time taken by the puck to strike the wall is given as

t = \frac{58.2}{v}

now time taken by sound to come back at the position of shooter is given as

t_2 = \frac{58.2}{340}

t_2 = 0.17s

so we know that total time is 1.9 s

1.9 = t + t_2

1.9 = t + 0.17

1.9 - 0.17 = t

t = 1.73 s

now we have

1.73 = \frac{58.2}{v}

v = 33.66 m/s

Difference between displacement and vector quantity
daser333 [38]

The only 'difference' is that they are different categories.

It's like asking "What's the difference between Susie and girl ?"

Or "What's the difference between Cadillac and car ?"

Displacement <em>IS</em> a vector quantity.

One solution to minimize resonance with buildings is to ______ the width to span ratio.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Resonance is a phenomenon which occurs when a body A in motion set another body B into motion of it own natural frequency. So for resonance to be minimize in a body is to increase the width to span ratio. So as to reduce the overall vibration which affects directly building resonance, the stiffness or trusses and girders should be increase. The increase in this aspect helps to reinforce building structure and support.

A flat sheet of paper of area 0.250 m2 is oriented so that the normal to the sheet is at an angle of 60 to a uniform electric fi
Harman [31]

Answer:

a. 1.75 Nm²/C

b. Yes.

Explanation:

a. Electric Flux is given as:

Φ = E*A*cosθ

Where E = electric flux

A = Surface area

Φ = 14 * 0.25 * cos60

Φ = 1.75 Nm²/C

b. Yes, the shape of the sheet will affect the Flux through it. This is because flux is dependent on area of the surface and the area is dependent on the shape of the surface.
