Answer:

The center mass (Xcm) of the two mass = (M₁X₁ + M₂X₂)/(M₁ +M₂)

Explanation:

let the first mass = M

let the position of second  = M

A speedboat increases its speed from 14.5 m/s to 29.3 m/s in a distance of 172 m.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s

Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s

Distance, S = 172m

a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2aS

Substituting into the formula

29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172

858.49 = 210.25 + 344a

344a = 858.49 - 210.25

344a = 648.24

a = 648.24/344

Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. To find the time;

We would use the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t

1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5

1.88t = 14.8

Time, t = 14.8/1.88

Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

What problems do pathogens cause in our society?
kotegsom [21]

Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease. 

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host.  A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

Due to diseases, affected people can not work  which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}    .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}    .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz

The objects listed are placed at the top of a ramp and roll down to the bottom without slipping. Assuming that there is no air r
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:

PE = RE + KE

mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²

For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².

For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².

For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².

For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².

If we say k is the coefficient in each case:

mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²

For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:

mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²

gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²

2gh = (k + 1) v²

v² = 2gh / (k + 1)

The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity.  Therefore:

marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring
