Answer:

The density of the mercury is 13.2 g/cm³

Explanation:

Density is a measurement that compares the amount of matter an object

has to its volume

Density is equal to mass divided by volume

We need to find the density of mercury if 500 cm³ has a mass of

6.60 kg in g/cm

We must to change The kilogram to grams

The mass of mercury is 6.60 kilograms

1 kilogram = 1000 grams

6.60 kilograms = 6.60 × 1000 = 6600 grams

Density = mass ÷ volume

The volume of the mercury is 500 cm³

The density = 6600 ÷ 500

The density = 13.2 g/cm³

<em>The density of the mercury is 13.2 g/cm³ </em>

klio [65]

Answer:

$3.58\:\mathrm{s}$

Explanation:

We can use the kinematics equation $\Delta y=v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ to solve this problem. To find the initial vertical velocity, find the vertical component of the object's initial velocity using basic trigonometry for right triangles:

$\sin28^{\circ}=\frac{y}{22},\\y=22\sin28^{\circ}=10.3283743813\:\mathrm{m/s}$

Now we can substitute values in our kinematics equation:

$\Delta y=-100$
$a=-9.8\:\mathrm{m/s^2}$ (acceleration due to gravity)
$v_i=-10.3283743813\:\mathrm{m/s}$
Solving for $t$

$-100=-10.3283743813t+\frac{1}{2}\cdot -9.8\cdot t^2,\\\\-4.9t^2-10.3283743813t+100=0,\\\\\boxed{t=3.5849312673637455}, t=-5.692762773751501\:\text{(Extraneous)}$

4. Explain the doppler effect. Be sure to talk about how the wave changes, the perceived change hear by a person that an emitted

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

Explanation:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer. In the specific case of the fixed observer, each wave that is emitted travels at a constant speed, but as the emitter approaches the next wave lLa in less time, so the wave maxima are closer to each other

v = λ’ f’

λ‘=λ -Δλ = λ - vs / f

f’= v / λ’ = v / (λ - vs / f) = v / (v / f - vs / f)

f ‘= f v / (v-vs)

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules, this movement creates a longitudinal wave, which we call sound. It is characterized by the air volume module and its density

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

y total = y₁ + y₂

Let's see as an example two waves of the same amplitude that travel in the same direction, if this wave the maximums coincide they add up obtaining that the maximums are twice the amplitude

If the wave goes in the most directive but the maximum of one coincides with the minimum in the other, the sum gives zero,

The wave travels in the opposite direction, in this case the resulting wave in constant in time and we call it resonance

While walking between gates at an airport, you notice a child running along a moving walkway. Estimating that the child runs at

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The speed of the moving walkway is 1.50 m/s

Explanation:

The position of the child can be calculated using the following equation:

x = x0 + v · t

Where :

x = position of the child at time t.

v = velocity of the child.

t = time.

When the child runs in the same direction as the walkway, the velocity of the child will be its velocity relative to the walkway plus the velocity of the walkway. Then, if we place the origin of the frame of reference at the start of the walkway:

x = x0 + v · t

25 m = 0 m + (2.8 m/s + v) · t₁

Where v is the velocity of the walkway

On its way back, the velocity of the child relative to the walkway is in the opposite direction to the velocity of the walkway. Then:

x = x0 + v · t

0 m = 25 m + (-2.8 m/s + v) · t₂

We also know that t₁ + t₂ = 25 s

Then: t₁ = 25 - t₂

So, we can write the following system of equations:

25 m = (2.8 m/s + v) · (25 s - t₂)

-25 m = (-2.8 m/s + v) · t₂

Let´s take the second equation and solve it for t₂

-25 m / (-2.8 m/s + v) = t₂

Now, let´s replace t₂ in the first equation:

25 m = (2.8 m/s + v) · (25 s + 25 m / (-2.8 m/s + v))

Let´s sum the fraction: 25 s + 25 m / (-2.8 m/s + v)

25 m = (2.8 m/s + v) · (25 s ·(-2.8 m/s + v) + 25 m) / (-2.8 m/s + v)

multiply by (-2.8 m/s + v) both sides of the equation:

25 m(-2.8 m/s + v) = (2.8 m/s + v) · (-70 m + 25 s · v + 25 m)

Apply distributive property:

-70 m²/s +25 m·v = -196 m²/s +70 m·v +70 m²/s -70 m·v +25 s ·v² + 25 m v

56 m²/s = 25 s · v²

56 m²/s / 25 s = v²

v = 1.50 m/s

The speed of the moving walkway is 1.50 m/s
