Answer:

6.571428571m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is basically a measure of its motion, and it takes both mass and the velocity an object is travelling at into account.

Momentum = mass x velocity

<em>(sub in values from question)</em>

241.5=36.75v

v=6.571428571m/s

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

A Chinook (King) salmon (Genus Oncorynchus) can jump out of water with a speed of 6.75 m / s . If the salmon is in a stream with
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The maximum height that the fish can jump is 2.19 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

The motion of the salmon is a parabolic one because when it jumps, it already has a horizontal velocity (see figure).

The position and velocity vectors of the salmon at a time t, can be calculated as follows:

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0x, v0y + g · t)

Where:

r = position of the salmon at time t.

x0 = initial horizotal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity.

t = time.

y0 = initial vertical position.

v0y = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration of gravity.

Looking at the figure, notice that at the maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero (because the velocity vector is horizontal). Using the equation of the vertical component of the velocity, we can obtain the time at which the salmon is at its maximum height:

vy = v0y + g · t

To find the initial vertical velocity, v0y, let´s look at the figure. Notice that the initial velocity is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed with the horizontal velocity and the vertical velocity. Then:

v0² = v0x² + v0y²

Solving for v0y:

v0y = √(v0² - v0x²)

v0y = √((6.75 m/s)² - (1.65 m/s)²)

v0y = 6.55 m/s

Now, using the equation of the vertical component of the velocity at the maximum height (vy = 0):

vy = v0y + g · t

0 = 6.55 m/s + (-9.8 m/s²) · t

-6.55 m/s / -9.8 m/s² = t

t = 0.67 s

Now, using the equation of the vertical position at t = 0.67 s, we can find the maximum height:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

y = 0 m + 6.55 m/s · 0.67 s + 1/2 · (-9.8 m/s²) · (0.67 s)²

y = 2.19 m

The maximum height that the fish can jump is 2.19 m.

A violin with string length 32 cm and string density 1.5 g/cm resonates in its fundamental with the first overtone of a 2.0-m or
love history [14]

Answer:

T=1022.42 N

Explanation:

Given that

l = 32 cm ,μ = 1.5 g/cm

L =2 m  ,V= 344 m/s

The pipe is closed so n= 3 ,for first over tone

f=\dfrac{nV}{4L}

f=\dfrac{3\times 344}{4\times 2}

f= 129 Hz

The tension in the string given as

T = f²(4l²) μ

Now by putting the values

T = f²(4l²) μ

T = 129² x (4 x 0.32²)  x 1.5 x  10⁻³ x 100

T=1022.42 N
