Answer:
The train's displacement is zero.
Explanation:
Given data,
The time taken by the train from NY to Washington and back is, t = 6 h 5 min
The distance between the two stations is, d = 363 km
Therefore, the total distance the train traveled is, d' = 726 km
The displacement is defined as the change in position coordinates with respect to its original position.
If the train travels from one point and returns back to the same point after some time, there is no change in the position coordinates with respect to its original position.
Hence, the train's displacement is zero.
If it is completely elastic, you can calculate the velocity of the second ball from the kinetic energy
<span>v1 = velocity of #1 </span>
<span>v1' = velocity of #1 after collision </span>
<span>v2' = velocity of #2 after collision. </span>
<span>kinetic energy: v1^2 = v1' ^2 + v2' ^2 (1/2 and m cancel out) </span>
<span>5^2 = 4.35^2 + v2' ^2 </span>
<span>v2 = 2.46 m/s <--- ANSWER</span>
Answer:
Part(a): The frequency is 
.
Part(b): The speed of the wave is 
.
Explanation:
Given:
The distance between the crests of the wave, 
.
The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, 
The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is 
.
Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by 
.
Part(a):
The relation between the frequency and time period is given by
Substituting the value of 
in equation (1), we have
Part(b):
The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by
Substituting the value of 
and 
in equation (2), we have
S.G. or specific gravity is the ratio of the density of an object to a fluid. It also is the fraction of the object's volume that would be submerged if the object were placed in the fluid. (note: if S.G.>1, the object will sink)
S.G. = density(wood) / density(water)
2/3 = density(wood) / 1000
density(wood) = 2000/3 kg/m^3 = ~666.67 kg/m^3
S.G. = density(wood) / density(oil)
9/10 = 2000/3 / density(oil)
density(oil) = 2000/3 / 9/10 = 20000/27 kg/m^3 = ~740.74 kg/m^3
Greenhouse gases
What is Global Warming? Global warming is the unusually rapid increase in Earth's average surface temperature over the past century primarily due to the greenhouse gases released by people burning fossil fuels.Jun 3, 2010
