Answer:

58.5 meters

Explanation:

1. Find your formula. Use distance = speed x time for this problem

2. Plug in the given information. d (for distance) = 9m/s^2 * 6.5 s

3. Multiply number AND units. d = 58.5m

4. Check to make sure units & numbers make sense. In this case check that the answer is a lot bigger than what we stated with and that our units go with distance

Describe two experiments to determine the speed of propagation of a transverse wave on a rope. You have the following tools to u

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

Tools: $stopwatch, \ meter \ stick, \ mass \ measuring \ scale , \ force \ measuring \ device$ .

$Experiment \ 1$ :Calculate the speed of the wave using the time, $t$ it takes to travel along the rope. Rope's length, $L$ is measured using the meter stick.

-Attach one end of rope to a wall or post, shake from the unfixed end to generate a pulse. Measure the the time it takes for the pulse to reach the wall once it starts traveling using the stopwatch.

-Speed of the pulse can then be obtained as:

$v=\frac{L}{t}$

$Experiment \ 2$ : Apply force of known value to the rope then use the following relation equation to find the speed of a pulse that travels on the rope.

$v=\sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}}\ ,\mu=\frac{m}{L}$

-Use the measuring stick and measuring scale to determine $L,m$ values of the rope then obtain $\mu$ .

-Use the force measuring constant to determine $F$ . These values can the be substituted in $Experiment \ 1$ to obtain $v.$

At a place where an object is thrown vertically downward with a speed of while a different object is thrown vertically upward wi

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Both objects will undergo the same change in velocity

Explanation:

m = Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m

m = Mass of object

Any object which is falling has only the acceleration due to gravity.

$ma=\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{(6.371\times 10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow a=9.81364\ m/s^2$

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81364 m/s²

So, the speeds of the objects will change at an equal rate of 9.81364 m/s² but the change will be negative when an object is thrown up.

Hence, both objects will undergo the same change in velocity.

Sveta_85 [38]

The Pacific plate collides with and is subducted under four other crustal plates. The area where this happens has lots of volcanic activity. This area is called the Ring of Fire. This is a place under the Pacific Ocean and it has numerous volcanic eruptions and earthquakes and so this region is called the Ring of Fire. In this place there are about 450 active and dormant volcanoes and it is almost 75 percent of the volcanoes present in our earth.
