Answer:

Less than

Explanation:

Speed of sound increases with density of the medium. Since wood is less dense than water, the speed of sound is lower in wood.

A merry-go-round on a playground consists of a horizontal solid disk with a weight of 805 N and a radius of 1.58 m. A child appl

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The value is $KE = 259.6 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the horizontal solid disk is $W = 805 \ N$

The radius of the horizontal solid disk is $r = 1.58 \ m$

The force applied by the child is $F = 49.5 \ N$

The time considered is $t = 2.95 \ s$

Generally the mass of the horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as

$m_h = \frac{W}{ g}$

=> $m_h = \frac{805}{ 9.8 }$

=> $m_h = 82.14 \ N$

Generally the moment of inertia of the horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} * m * r^ 2$

=> $I = \frac{1}{2} * 82.14 * 1.58^ 2$

=> $I = 102.5 \ kg \cdot m^2$

Generally the net torque experienced by the horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as

$T = I * \alpha = F * r$

=> $\alpha = \frac{ F * r }{ I }$

=> $\alpha = \frac{ 49.5 * 1.58 }{ 102.53 }$

=> $\alpha = 0.7628$

Gnerally from kinematic equation we have that

$w = w_o + \alpha t$

Here $w_o$ is the initial angular velocity velocity of the horizontal solid disk which is $w_o = 0\ rad/s$

So

$w = 0 + 0.7628 * 2.95$

=> $w = 2.2503 \ rad/s$

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * I * w^2$

=> $KE = \frac{1}{2} * 102.53 * 2.2503 ^2$

=> $KE = 259.6 \ J$

Two geological field teams are working in a remote area. A global positioning system (GPS) tracker at their base camp shows the

Masja [62]

Answer:

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 58.2

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 14.90 deg North of east

Explanation:

ASSUME Vector is R and makes angle A with +x-axis,

therefore component of vector R is

$R_x = Rcos A$

$R_y = Rsin A$

From above relation

Assuming base camp as the origin, location of 1st team is

$R_1 = 37 km$ away at 21 deg North of west (North of west is in 2nd quadrant, So x is -ve and y is positive)

$R_{1x} = -R_1*cos A_1 = -37*cos 21 deg = -34.54 km$

$R_{1y} = R_1*sin A_1 = 37*sin 21 deg = 13.25 km$

location of 2nd team is at

$R_2 = 32 km$ , at 38 deg East of North = 32 km, at 58 deg North of east (North of east is in 1st quadrant, So x and y both are +ve)

$R_{2x} = R_2*cos A_2 = 32*cos 58 deg = 16.95 km$

$R_{2y} = R_2*sin A_2 = 32*sin 58 deg = 27.13 km$

Now position of 2nd team with respect to 1st team will be given by:

$R_3 = R_2 - R_1$

$R_3 = (R_{2x} - R_{1x}) i + (R_{2y} - R_{1y}) j$

Using above values:

$R_3 = (16.95 - (-34.54)) i + (27.13 - 13.42) j$

$R_3 = 51.49 i + 13.71 j$

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$\left | R_3 \right | = \sqrt (51.49^2 +13.71^2)$

$\left | R_3 \right | = 53.28 km = 58.2 km$

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$Direction = tan^{-1} \frac{R_{3y}}{R_{3x}} = tan^{-1}[ \frac{13.71}{51.49}]$

Direction = 14.90 deg North of east

6. Dan wants to create acceleration. He

kiruha [24]

d. Maintain constant velocity

Explanation:

A constant velocity leads to no acceleration.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity with time:

Acceleration = $\frac{change in velocity}{time taken}$

If there is no change in velocity i.e constant velocity.

At constant velocity, the change in velocity is 0.

If we put zero in the equation above, we will obtain an acceleration value of 0.

scoundrel [369]

The answer is D) absorb most of the light that falls on them

A blackbody is an object that absorbs most (theoretically all) of the light that falls on it. Stars are called black bodies because they demonstrate something close to this property. Why do they appear white and not black? As black body radiators heat up, they slowly turn from black to grey to white, according to the human eye. Since stars are incredibly hot, they appear white to us.
