A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec            

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car a_1=5.9m/sec^2

Acceleration of the stock car a_2=3.6m/sec^2

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So s_1=s_2

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So \frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m

(c) From first equation pf motion v = u+at

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec

A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista
ella [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.

What can you infer about a wave with a short wavelength?
raketka [301]

Answer:

- It can be infer that it has a lower frequency.

<em>In the case of electromagnetic waves.</em>

- A short wavelength means a lower energy,

Explanation:

The wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or valleys while the frequency is the number of crests that pass for a specific point in an interval of time.

For example, a person makes laundry once a weak.

In this example, the event is represented by the laundry and the interval of time is once a weak

The velocity of a wave is defined as:

v = \nu \cdot \lambda  (1)

Where nu is the frequency and \lambda is the wavelenth

\lambda =  \frac{v}{\nu}  (2)

Notice from equation 2 that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency (when the wavelength increases the frequency decreases).

In the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength means a lower energy, as it can be seen in equation 4 (inversely proportional).

E = h\nu  (3)

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} (4)

How does frequency relate to pitch?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
The sensation of a frequency is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave. ... That is, two sound waves sound good when played together if one sound has twice the frequency of the other.
