Answer: A reference point

Explanation: If an object is in motion then its distance from another object is changing. Whether an object is moving or not depends on your point of view. For example, a woman riding on a bus is not moving in relation to the seat she is sitting on, but she is moving in relation to the buildings the bus passes. A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.

A race car reaches the finish line and the driver slows down to come to a stop. If it takes the car 10 seconds to stop at a cons

boyakko [2]

Answer:

53.64 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

a = (v-u)/t............. Equation 1

Where a = acceleration of the car, v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, t = time.

make u the subject of the equation

u = v-at............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: a = -12 mph/s = -5.364 m/s², t = 10 seconds, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop)

Substitute these values into equation 2

u = 0-(-5.364×10)

u = 0+53.64

u = 53.64 m/s

One string of a certain musical instrument is 70.0 cm long and has a mass of 8.79 g . It is being played in a room where the spe

Svetach [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of linear mass density, and the expression of the wavelength with which we can find the frequency of the string. With these values it will be possible to find the voltage value. Later we will apply concepts related to harmonic waves in order to find the fundamental frequency.

The linear mass density is given as,

$\mu = \frac{m}{l}$

$\mu = \frac{8.79*10^{-3}}{70*10^{-2}}$

$\mu = 0.01255kg/m$

The expression for the wavelength of the standing wave for the second overtone is

$\lambda = \frac{2}{3} l$

Replacing we have

$\lambda = \frac{2}{3} (70*10^{-2})$

$\lambda = 0.466m$

The frequency of the sound wave is

$f_s = \frac{v}{\lambda_s}$

$f_s = \frac{344}{0.768}$

$f_s = 448Hz$

Now the velocity of the wave would be

$v = f_s \lambda$

$v = (448)(0.466)$

$v = 208.768m/s$

The expression that relates the velocity of the wave, tension on the string and linear mass density is

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

$v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu}$

$T= \mu v^2$

$T = (0.01255kg/m)(208.768m/s)^2$

$T = 547N$

The tension in the string is 547N

PART B) The relation between the fundamental frequency and the $n^{th}$ harmonic frequency is

$f_n = nf_1$

Overtone is the resonant frequency above the fundamental frequency. The second overtone is the second resonant frequency after the fundamental frequency. Therefore

$n=3$

Then,

$f_3 = 3f_1$

Rearranging to find the fundamental frequency

$f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}$

$f_1 = \frac{448Hz}{3}$

$f_1 = 149.9Hz$

The eiffel tower has a mass of 7.3 million kilograms and a height of 324 meters. its base is square with a side length of 125 me

uranmaximum [27]

Since the tower base is square with a side length of 125 m,

Therefore,

$(125\ m)^2+ (125\ m)^2=31250 m^2$

Square root of 31250 = 176.776953 (Diameter) , so this is the diameter of the cylinder to enclose it, and radius, r = 88.38834765 m and height, h = 324 m.

The volume of cylinder,

$=\pi r^2h=3.14(88.38834765 m)^2\times 324 m =7948168.803\ m^3$

Thus, the mass of the air in the cylinder,

$=1.225\ kg/m^3 \times 7948168.803\ m^3=9736506.78\ kg$

Hence, the mass of the air in the cylinder is this more than the mass of the tower.
