Train A is moving at 100 kmh–1 through a station. Train B is also travelling at 100 kmh–1 through the station but in the opposit

e direction to train A. What is the speed of a seated passenger on? (a) train A relative to an observer on the station? (b) train A relative to another seated passenger on the same train? (c) train B relative to a passenger on train A?

Explanation:

(a) An observer on the station has a speed of 0 km/h.  The speed of  a passenger on Train A is 100 km/h.  The relative speed is 100 km/h − 0 km/h = 100 km/h.

(b) The speed of both passengers is 100 km/h, in the same direction.  The relative speed is 100 km/h − 100 km/h = 0 km/h.

(c) The speed of both passengers is 100 km/h, in opposite directions.  The relative speed is 100 km/h − (-100 km/h) = 200 km/h.

How does the frequency of sound relate to its pitch?
madreJ [45]
Good afternoon!
the answer to that particular question is this
rule
a particular pitch directly corresponds to frequency in that if you have a pitch you will have a high frequency
if you a low frequency you will have a low pitch
both are intertwined in marriage!

A solid sphere of radius R is placed at a height of 30 cm on a15 degree slope. It is released and rolls, without slipping, to th
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The height is  h_c = 42.857

A circular hoop of different diameter cannot be released from a height 30cm and match the sphere speed because from the conservation relation the speed of the hoop is independent of the radius (Hence also the diameter )

Explanation:

   From the question we are told that

           The height is h_s = 30 \ cm

            The angle of the slope is \theta = 15^o

According to the law of conservation of energy

     The potential energy of the sphere at the top of the slope = Rotational kinetic energy + the linear kinetic energy

                          mgh = \frac{1}{2} I w^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where I is the moment of inertia which is mathematically represented as this for  a sphere

                    I = \frac{2}{5} mr^2

  The angular velocity w is mathematically represented as

                         w = \frac{v}{r}

So the equation for conservation of energy becomes

               mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} [\frac{2}{5} mr^2 ][\frac{v}{r} ]^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

              mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{2}{5} +1 ]

             mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{7}{5} ]

            gh_s =[\frac{7}{10} ] v^2

              v^2 = \frac{10gh_s}{7}

Considering a circular hoop

   The moment of inertial is different for circle and it is mathematically represented as

             I = mr^2

Substituting this into the conservation equation above

              mgh_c = \frac{1}{2} (mr^2)[\frac{v}{r} ] ^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where h_c is the height where the circular hoop would be released to equal the speed of the sphere at the bottom

                 mgh_c  = mv^2

                     gh_c = v^2

                     h_c = \frac{v^2}{g}

Recall that   v^2 = \frac{10gh_s}{7}

                    h_c= \frac{\frac{10gh_s}{7} }{g}

                      = \frac{10h_s}{7}

            Substituting values

                   h_c = \frac{10(30)}{7}

                       h_c = 42.86 \ cm

Feliz [49]

Answer:

0.331m

Explanation:

wave equation: v=f λ

v=30000m/s

f=90500 Hz

λ= \frac{v}{f}

λ= \frac{30000}{90500}

λ= 0.311m
