Answer:

19m/s

Explanation:

U= 4m/s

a = 0.5m/s²

t= 30s

V= U+at

= 4+15

=19m/s

(1-dimension) A fish has a mass of 6 kg and is moving at a speed of 4m/s to the right. What is its momentum?

artcher [175]

Answer:

<h2>24 kg m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 6 × 4

We have the final answer as

<h3>24 kg m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

an object of mass 1 g is hung from a spring and set in oscillatory motion .At t=0 the displacement is 43.75cm and the accelerati

charle [14.2K]

The spring constant is $4.0\cdot 10^{-5} N/m$

Explanation:

For an object in a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration of the object is related to the displacement by

$a=-\omega^2 x$

where

a is the acceleration

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

x is the displacement

The angular frequency is defined as

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

where

k is the spring constant

m is the mass

Substituting the second equation into the first one, we get

$a=-\frac{k}{m}x$

In this problem we have

m = 1 g = 0.001 kg

And at t=0,

x = 43.75 cm

a = -1.754 cm/s

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation above to find the spring constant:

$k=-\frac{ma}{x}=-\frac{(0.001)(-1.754)}{43.75}=4.0\cdot 10^{-5} N/m$

An engine extracts 441.3kJ of heat from the burning of fuel each cycle, but rejects 259.8 kJ of heat (exhaust, friction,etc) dur

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The thermal efficiency is 0.4113.

Explanation:

We know that the thermal efficiency is the ratio of work done by the engine over the heat taken

$\eta = \frac{W_{made}}{Q_{in}}$

Now, how much work the engine do in a cycle?

We know that the work done in a cycle must be equal to the heat taken minus the heat rejected

$W{made} = Q_{in} - Q_{rejected}$

So, the thermal efficiency will be:

$\eta = \frac{Q_{in} - Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}$

$\eta = \frac{Q_{in}}{Q_{in}} - \frac{Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}$

$\eta = 1 - \frac{Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}$

Putting the values of the problem

$\eta = 1 - \frac{259.8 kJ }{441.3kJ}$

$\eta = 0.4113$

What is a longitudinal wave?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or the opposite direction to, the direction of propagation of the wave. ... In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the waves.

The initial momentum and the vertical and horizontal component

tamaranim1 [39]

Momentum = mass * velocity

p = mv

p = 1.5 kg * 40 ms^-1

p = 60 kgm/s

To find components of a vector:

px = p * cos(theta)
px = 60 * cos(30)
px = 51.96 = 52 (rounded to two significant digits)

py = p * sin(theta)
py = 60 * sin(30)
py = 30

He initial momentum is 60kgm/s
The horizontal component is 52 kgm/s
The vertical component is 30 kgm/s
