Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity is at its greatest when kinetic energy is at its max which is when all the ball's energy has been transformed from potential energy to kinetic energy which is at the lowest point in its travels (assuming the ball is rolling down a ramp). You have no picture here so this answer is a general one, not a specific one.

What is the definition of visible white light wave (RoyGBive)

uranmaximum [27]

There's no such thing as a wave of white light. Every light wave with
a certain wavelength has some color. White light is a mixture of all
the different wavelengths with all of the different visible colors.
They're ALL there in white light. When they all enter your eye at
the same time, your brain gets the message of brightness with
no particular color, which we call "white light".

Bicyclists in the Tour de France do enormous amounts of work during a race. For example, the average power per kilogram generate

tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Average power per unit mass generated by Lance, $\dfrac{P}{m}=6.5\ W/kg$

$P=6.5\times 75=487.5\ W$

(a) Distance to cover race, $d = 160\ km =160\times 10^3\ m$

Average speed of the person, v = 11 m/s

If t is the time taken to cover the race.

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{160\times 10^3\ m}{11\ m/s}$

t = 14545.46 s

Let W is the work done. The relation between the work done and the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

$W=P\times t$

$W=487.5\times 14545.46$

W = 7090911.75 J

(b) Since, $1\ J=2.389\times 10^{-4}\ calories$

So, in 7090911.75 J, $W=7090911.75 \times 2.389\times 10^{-4}$

W = 1694.01 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball is thrown vertically upward, which is the positive direction. A little later, it returns to its point of release. The bal

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 39.2 m/s in the upward direction.

Explanation:

Given:

Upward direction is positive. So, downward direction is negative.

Tota time the ball remains in air (t) = 8.0 s

Net displacement of the ball (S) = Final position - Initial position = 0 m

Acceleration of the ball is due to gravity. So, $a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2$ (Acting down)

Now, let the initial velocity be 'u' m/s.

From Newton's equation of motion, we have:

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

$0=8u-0.5\times 9.8\times 8^2\\\\8u=4.9\times 64\\\\u=\frac{4.9\times 64}{8}\\\\u=4.9\times 8=39.2\ m/s$

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 39.2 m/s in the upward direction.

If the fundamental frequency of a musical instrument is 42Hz, what is the frequency of the second harmonic?

timurjin [86]

For the majority of instruments f = n f0 where f is the resonating frequency, n is any whole number and f0 is the fundamental.
This applies to trumpets, violins, flutes and a broad range. 
In such a case the first harmonic would be at n=1 and the second harmonic would be at n=2 

which gives a frequency of 84 Hz
