A ski gondola is connected to the top of a hill by a steel cable of length 600 m and diameter 1.2 cm . As the gondola comes to t

he end of its run, it bumps into the terminal and sends a wave pulse along the cable. It is observed that it took 18 s for the pulse to return. Part A What is the speed of the pulse?

Answer:

v = 66.7 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of steel cable, L = 600 m

Diameter = 1.2 cm

It is observed that it took 18 s for the pulse to return.

The time taken to cover 600 m will be :

t = T/2

t = 9 s

Let v be the of the pulse. We know that,

v=\dfrac{L}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{600}{9}\\\\v=66.7\ m/s

So, the speed of the pulse is equal to 66.7 m/s.

What is the formula for conservation of momentum
olga55 [171]

Answer:

The general equation for conservation of momentum during a collision between n number of objects is given as: [m i ×v i a ] = [m i ×v i b ] Where m i is the mass of object i , v i a is the velocity of object i before the collision, and v i b is the velocity of object i after the collision.

How an application of atmospheric device work?example siphon​
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

A practical siphon, operating at typical atmospheric pressures and tube heights, works because gravity pulling down on the taller column of liquid leaves reduced pressure at the top of the siphon (formally, hydrostatic pressure when the liquid is not moving).

I hope it's helpful!

Answer:

P = 5880  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the block, m = 30 kg

The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.

The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :

P=mgh\\\\=30\times 9.8\times 20\\\\=5880\ J

So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880  J.
