Three students are discussing the motion of an object which is described by the following equation: x(t)= -4m -(9m/s)t + (2m/s^2

)t^2
The students make the following contentions about the motion during the first 2 seconds: Amadeo: "I think this object's instantaneous speed will increase with time since the acceleration is positive.
Barrett: "No, the object will have a decreasing speed, since the acceleration is directed opposite to the initial velocity
Chinue: "I don't think we can tell what will happen to the speed from this equation, since it tells us about the position as a function of time, not about speed or velocity."
Which, if any, of these three students do you agree with?
A. Amadeo
B. Barrett
C. Chinue
E. None of them.

Answer:

Barret True, the speed decreases with increasing time

Explanation:

The equation they give us to describe the movement is of the form

    y = yo + v₀ t + ½ a t²

The given equation is

    y = -4 - 9 t + 2 t²

We can match term to term and find the constants

    y₀ = -4 m

    v₀ = -9 m / s

    a = 2 m / s²

With this data we can build the equation of speed and time

    v = v₀ + a t

    v = - 9 + 2 t

With this expression we see that as time increases the speed decreases since the speed and acceleration have direction is opposite

Now we can analyze the students' observations

Amadeo False, we see that the behavior is the opposite

Barret True, the speed decreases with increasing time

Chinue False With the equation we have all the data to build the speed equation as a function of time

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

A train whose proper length is 1200 m passes at a high speed through a station whose platform measures 900 m, and the station ma
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

0.66c

Explanation:

Use length contraction equation:

L = L₀ √(1 − (v²/c²))

where L is the contracted length,

L₀ is the length at 0 velocity,

v is the velocity,

and c is the speed of light.

900 = 1200 √(1 − (v²/c²))

3/4 = √(1 − (v²/c²))

9/16 = 1 − (v²/c²)

v²/c² = 7/16

v = ¼√7 c

v ≈ 0.66 c
