Answer:

When a seagull picks an oyster up into the sky and then lets it drop on the rocks below to open the shell; where is the oyster's potential energy greatest? Where is its kinetic energy greatest?

Potential energy is greatest at maximum height; kinetic energy is greatest just before the oyster strikes the ground.

Answer:

Potential energy is greatest right before the bird drops it. Kinetic energy is greatest the instant before the oyster hits the ground

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object you store energy in an object by raising it higher in the air.

Kinetic energy is moving energy as the oyster falls it loses the stored energy and it goes into the moving energy which is kinetic.

PLEASE HELP!! ITS URGENT!!!​

Answer:

F = 800 [N]

Explanation:

To be able to calculate this problem we must use the principle of momentum before and after the impact of the hammer.

We must summarize that after the impact the hammer does not move, therefore its speed is zero. In this way, we can propose the following equation.

ΣPbefore = ΣPafter

(m_{1}*v_{1}) - F*t = (m_{1}*v_{2})

where:

m₁ = mass of the hammer = 0.15 [m/s]

v₁ = velocity of the hammer = 8 [m/s]

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

t = time = 0.0015 [s]

v₂ = velocity of the hammer after the impact = 0

(0.15*8)-(F*0.0015) = (0.15*0)\\F*0.0015 = 0.15*8\\F = 1.2/(0.0015)\\F = 800 [N]

Note: The force is taken as negative since it is exerted by the nail on the hammer and this force is directed in the opposite direction to the movement of the hammer.

Two loudspeakers in a 20c room emit 686 hz sound waves along the x-axis.a. if the speakers are in phase, what is the smallest di
jeyben [28]

<u>Answer :</u>

(a) d = 0.25 m

(b) d = 0.5 m

<u>Explanation :</u>

It is given that,

Frequency of sound waves, f = 686 Hz

Speed of sound wave at 20^0\ C is, v = 343 m/s

(1) Perfectly destructive interference occurs when the path difference is half integral multiple of wavelength i.e.

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}........(1)

Velocity of sound wave is given by :

v=f\times \lambda

d=\dfrac{v}{2f}

d=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{2\times 686\ Hz}

d=0.25\ m

Hence, when the speakers are in phase the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is perfectly destructive is 0.25 m.

(2) For constructive interference, the path difference is integral multiple of wavelengths i.e.

d=n\lambda  ( n = integers )

Let n = 1

So, d=\dfrac{v}{f}

d=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{686\ Hz}

d=0.5\ m

Hence, the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is maximum constructive is 0.5 m.

A body is projected from the ground at an angle of 30° with the horizontal at an initial speed of 128 ft/s. Ignoring air frictio
Elanso [62]

Answer

given,

v = 128 ft/s

angle made with horizontal = 30°

now,

horizontal component of velocity

vx = v cos θ = 128 x cos 30° = 110.85 ft/s

vertical component of velocity

vy = v sin θ = 128 x sin 30° = 64 m/s

time taken to strike the ground

using equation of motion

v = u + at

0 =-64 -32 x t

t = 2 s

total time of flight is equal to

T = 2 t = 2 x 2 = 4 s

b) maximum height

using equation of motion

 v² = u² + 2 a h

 0 = 64² - 2 x 32 x h

 64 h = 64²

  h = 64 ft

c) range

R = v_x × time of flight

R = 110.85 × 4

R = 443.4 ft
