Whenever these waves reach the shoreline, these slow down. The first parts of the shoreline that waves meet are the headlands. This is the part of the land that projects into the water. The slowing waves bend toward the headlands, which concentrates the waves' energy. A huge amount of energy is released when waves crash into <span>headlands, causing the land to erode.</span>

The velocity versus time graph of particle A is tangent to the velocity versus time graph for particle B at point O. What is the

Fudgin [204]

Answer: C. -1.16 meters/second2

Explanation:

A= v/t (velocity/time)

in this case: v=7 and t=6

So, A= 7/6

A=1.16

The graph is decreasing so accelleration would be negative

A= <u>-1.16 meters/second2</u>

<u>Option C!</u> ; )

An astronaut has a momentum of 280 kg and travels 10 m/s. what is the mass of the astronaut?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>28 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of an object given it's momentum and velocity / speed can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{p}{v} \\$

where

m is the mass

p is the momentum

v is the speed or velocity

From the question

p = 280 kg/ms

v = 10 m/s

The mass of the object is

$m = \frac{280}{10} = 28 \\$

We have the final answer as

<h3>28 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

The pirate ship tie at the amusement park is a giant pendulum that riders sit in. It swings back and forth, with a maximum veloc

kkurt [141]

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh$

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

$\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h$

$h = \frac{200}{9.8)$

$h = 20.4 m$

so maximum height is 20.4 m

A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and ret

emmasim [6.3K]

f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s
