Answer:

The correct answer is D

shock waves

Explanation:

When a body approaches the speed of sound in the media, the waves it emits are getting closer and closer to each other, the envelope (sum) results in a kind of cylindrical cone that is similar to that formed in a supersonic process

The correct answer is D

When the speed of sound is exceeded, the body goes faster than the wave, so the so-called shock waves are formed.

They carry a lot of energy

When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?

topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

What is one watt ? Write the relation of watt with kilowatt , megawatt , and horsepower .

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

The watt (the power) is equal to the relationship between the work and the time in which that work is performed.

$P = W/t$

where:

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

t = time [s].

Now 1000 [W] are equal to 1 [kW]

And 1000000 [W] are equal to 1 [MW]

The horsepower is the unit of power in the imperial system of units.

And 745.7 [W] are equal to 1 [Hp]

A dog is walking at 2m/s and then begins to run at a speed of 6m/s. What is his acceleration if his total travel time is 2 secon

fiasKO [112]

The formula for velocity vf = vi + at

First list your given information

2m/s Is your initial velocity (vi)
6m/s is you final velocity (vf)
2 seconds is your time (t)

Since you want the a for acceleration get a by itself

a = (vf-vi)/t

So a= (6-2)/2

a= 4/2

a=2

Now units

the units for acceleration are m/s $x^{2}$

2m/s $x^{2}$
