Define , gravitational acceleration

Vitek1552 [10]

The simplest answer would be "acceleration due to gravity."

The exact value of this acceleration changes depending on which planet your on (for example).

What is the magnitude of velocity for a 2,000 kg car possessing 3,000 kg(*)m/s of momentum?

Trava [24]

The magnitude of velocity for this car is equal to 1.5 m/s.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Momentum of car = 3,000 kgm/s.

Mass of car = 2,000 kg.

To calculate the magnitude of velocity for this car:

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

In Science, momentum simply means a multiplication of the mass of an object and its velocity.

Mathematically, momentum is giving by the formula;

$Momentum = mass \times velocity$

Making velocity the subject of formula, we have:

$Velocity=\frac{Momentum}{Mass}$

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$Velocity=\frac{3000}{2000}$

Velocity = 1.5 m/s.

A bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes.

zaharov [31]

Given that,

Frequency emitted by the bat, f = 47.6 kHz

The speed off sound in air, v = 413 m/s

We need to find the wavelength detected by the bat. The speed of a wave is given by formula as follows :

$v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{413}{47.6\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=0.00867\ m$

$\lambda=8.67\ mm$

So, the bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes i.e. 8.67 mm.

Two subway stops are separated by 1210 m. If a subway train accelerates at 1.30 m/s2 from rest through the first half of the dis

solong [7]

Answer:

Part 1) Time of travel equals 61 seconds

Part 2) Maximum speed equals 39.66 m/s.

Explanation:

The final speed of the train when it completes half of it's journey is given by third equation of kinematics as

$v^{2}=u^2+2as$

where

'v' is the final speed

'u' is initial speed

'a' is acceleration of the body

's' is the distance covered

Applying the given values we get

$v^2=0+2\times 1.30\times \frac{1210}{2}\\\\v^{2}=1573\\\\\therefore v=39.66m/s$

Now the time taken to attain the above velocity can be calculated by the first equation of kinematics as

$v=u+at\\\\v=0+1.30\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{39.66}{1.30}=30.51seconds$

Since the deceleration is same as acceleration hence the time to stop in the same distance shall be equal to the time taken to accelerate the first half of distance

Thus total time of journey equals $T=2\times 30.51\approx61seconds$

Part b)

the maximum speed is reached at the point when the train ends it's acceleration thus the maximum speed reached by the train equals $39.66m/s$

When an object like a tree is illuminated by the sun, and you are looking toward the tree, light rays leave the object _________

Dima020 [189]

Objects absorb and reflect light differently depending on their physical characteristics, such as their shape or composition. Thanks to the reflection we can see the objects. Reflection can be defined as the change of direction of a wave, which, when in contact with the separation surface between two changing means, returns to the point where it originated. When the light illuminates the object, such as the tree, the rays of light will disperse in all directions allowing observation.

The correct answer is A. From every point on the surface of the tree, and in every direction
