A dog starts from rest to chase after a ball. If the dog reaches a maximum speed of 5.4 m/s in 8.2 seconds, what is the accelera

tion of the dog?

Lelechka [254]3 years ago

Answer:

0.66 m/s²

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Final velocity (v) = 5.4 m/s

Time (t) = 8.2 secs

Acceleration (a) =....?

The acceleration of the dog can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

5.4 = 0 + a × 8.2

5.4 = 8.2a

Divide both side 8.2

a = 5.4/8.2

a = 0.66 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the dog is 0.66 m/s².

“Is it correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave?
klio [65]

It's weird but technically correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave.  Radio and light are both electromagnetic waves.  The only difference is that radio waves have much much much longer wavelengths, and much much much lower frequencies, than light waves have.  But they're both the same physical phenomenon.

However, a radio wave CAN'T also be considered to be a sound wave.  These two things are as different as two waves can be.

-- Radio is an electromagnetic wave. Sound is a mechanical wave.

-- Radio waves travel more than 800 thousand times faster than sound waves do.

-- Radio waves are transverse waves. Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

-- Radio waves can travel through empty space. Sound waves need material stuff to travel through.

-- Radio waves can be detected by radio, TV, and microwave receivers. Sound waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be detected by our ears. Radio waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be generated by talking, or by hitting a frying pan with a spoon. Radio waves can't.

-- Radio waves can be generated by an alternating current flowing through an isolated wire. Sound waves can't.

A spring hangs at rest from a support. If you suspend a 0.46 kg mass from the spring it elongates 0.79m.
Fudgin [204]

a. The restoring force in the spring has magnitude

F[spring] = k (0.79 m)

which counters the weight of the mass,

F[weight] = (0.46 kg) g = 4.508 N

so that by Newton's second law,

F[spring] - F[weight] = 0   ⇒   k = (4.508 N) / (0.79 m) ≈ 5.7 N/m

b. Using the same equation as before, we now have

F[weight] = (0.75 kg) g = 7.35 N

so that

(5.7 N/m) x - 7.35 N = 0   ⇒   x = (7.35 N) / (5.7 N/m) ≈ 1.3 m
