An 80kg astronaut traveled to the moon, where gravity is one-sixth (116) as

Physics

7 0

Answer:

Wmoon = 131 [N]

Explanation:

We know that the weight of a body is equal to the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

Since we are told that the gravitational acceleration of the moon is equal to one-sixth of the acceleration of Earth's gravitation. Then we must multiply the value of Earth's gravitation by one-sixth.

w_{moon}=\frac{1}{6} *m*g\\w_{moon}=\frac{1}{6} *80*9.81\\w_{moon}=130.8 [N] = 131 [N]

A 6,600 kg train car moving at +2.0 m/s bumps into and locks together with one of mass 5,400 kg moving at -3.0 m/s.
Katarina [22]
Option B would be right one
according to momentum conservation
6600*2 = 13200kgm/s
5400*3 = 16200kgm/s
16200-13200 = 3000
now 6600-5400 = 1200 kg
thus 3000/1200 = 2.5 v

A bicyclist bikes the 90 mi to a city averaging a certain speed. The return trip is made at a speed that is 1 mph slower. Total
Lynna [10]

Answer:

his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

Explanation:

Let say the speed of the bicycle while he moves towards the city is "v"

now the speed of the round trip must be smaller by 1 mph

so its speed for round trip will be

v_2 = v - 1

now we know that total time of the motion is 19 hr

so we will have

t_1 = \frac{90}{v}

t_2 = \frac{90}{v - 1}

so we will have

t_1 + t_2 = 19 hr

\frac{90}{v} + \frac{90}{v-1} = 19

90(2v - 1) = 19(v^2 - v)

19 v^2 - 199 v + 90 = 0

by solving above equation we have

v = 10 mph

so his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

You are traveling in a car toward a hill at a speed of 36.4 mph. The car's horn emits sound waves of frequency 231 Hz, which mov
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

<em>a. The frequency with which the waves strike the hill is 242.61 Hz</em>

<em>b. The frequency of the reflected sound wave is 254.23 Hz</em>

<em>c. The beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is  </em>

<em>    11.62 Hz</em>

Explanation:

Part A

The car is the source of our sound, and the frequency of the sound wave it emits is given as 231 Hz. The speed of sound given can be used to determine the other frequencies, as expressed below;

f_{1} = f[\frac{v_{s} }{v_{s} -v} ] ..............................1

where f_{1} is the frequency of the wave as it strikes the hill;

f is the frequency of the produced by the horn of the car = 231 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 36.4 mph

Converting the speed of the car from mph to m/s we have ;

hint (1 mile = 1609 m, 1 hr = 3600 secs)

v = 36.4 mph *\frac{1609 m}{1 mile} *\frac{1 hr}{3600 secs}

v = 16.27 m/s

Substituting into equation 1 we have

f_{1} =  231 Hz (\frac{340 m/s}{340 m/s - 16.27 m/s})

f_{1}  = 242.61 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency which the wave strikes the hill is 242.61 Hz.

Part B

At this point, the hill is the stationary point while the driver is the observer moving towards the hill that is stationary. The frequency of the sound waves reflecting the driver can be obtained using equation 2;

f_{2} = f_{1} [\frac{v_{s}+v }{v_{s} } ]

where f_{2} is the frequency of the reflected sound;

f_{1}  is the frequency which the wave strikes the hill = 242.61 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 16.27 m/s.

Substituting our values into equation 1 we have;

f_{2} = 242.61 Hz [\frac{340 m/s+16.27 m/s }{340 m/s } ]

f_{2}  = 254.23 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency of the reflected sound is 254.23 Hz.

Part C

The beat frequency is the change in frequency between the frequency of the direct sound  and the reflected sound. This can be obtained as follows;

Δf = f_{2} -  f_{1}  

The parameters as specified in Part A and B;

Δf = 254.23 Hz - 242.61 Hz

Δf  = 11.62 Hz

Therefore the beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is 11.62 Hz

A block with m = 300 grams oscillates at the end of a linear spring with k = 6.5 N/m. (assume this is a top-down view and the bl
inna [77]

Answer:

a) T=1.35s

b) amplitude = 0.0923m

Explanation:

m=300 gr

k=6.5 N/m

first we need to get the angular frequency of the motion

so we have that

ω = √(k/m)

in this case motion is a simple harmonic so the period is defined by:

T= 2π / ω

T= 2π / √(k/m)

replacing the variables...

T= 2π / √(6.5/0.3)

T=1.35s   (period of the block's motion)

and...

α max = | ω²r max |

2 = (2π/1.35)² * r max

r max= 0.0923m
