An object of mass 3.4 kg is moving in a straight line with kinetic energy 59.177 J. A force is applied in the direction of its m

otion for 2.7 seconds, and as a result, its kinetic energy is multiplied by a factor of 1.57. By what factor is its momentum multiplied?

Answer:

Its momentum is multiplied by a factor of 1.25

Explanation:

First, we <u>calculate the initial velocity of the object</u>:

  • K = 0.5 * m * v₁²
  • 59.177 J = 0.5 * 3.4 kg * v₁²
  • v₁ = 5.9 m/s

With that velocity we can <u>calculate the initial momentum of the object</u>:

  • p₁ = v₁ * m
  • p₁ = 20.06 kg·m/s

Then we <u>calculate the velocity of the object once its kinetic energy has increased</u>:

  • (59.177 J) * 1.57 = 0.5 * 3.4 kg * v₂²
  • v₂ = 7.4 m/s

And <u>calculate the second momentum of the object</u>:

  • p₂ = v₂ * m
  • p₂ = 25.16 kg·m/s

Finally we <u>calculate the factor</u>:

  • p₂/p₁ = 1.25

A wave has a velocity of 24 m/s and a period of 3.0 s. Calculate the wavelength of the wave.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Velocity (unit:m/s) of the wave is given with the formula:

v=f∧,

where f is the frequency which tells us how many waves are passing a point per second (unit: Hz) and ∧ is the wavelength, which tells us the length of those waves in metres (unit:m)

f=1/T , where T is the period of the wave.

In our case: f=1/3

∧=v/f=24m/s/1/3=24*3=72m

Explain why more stars are circumpolar for observers at higher latitudes.
PIT_PIT [208]

Explanation:

When you observe the night sky you will notice that the stars are moving. They rise from eastern horizon and set in the western horizon. It happens due to rotation of Earth. When observed closely you will notice that the all the stars seem to go around the pole star. Out of all the stars there are some stars which neither set not rise, such stars are called as Circumpolar stars. This means that they are always above the horizon. If we trace the path of such stars they will appear to make complete circle around the pole star.

Also, you will notice that the altitude of pole star (separation of pole star from the horizon in degrees) will depend on the location of observe on the Earth. This happens due to Earth being spherical. So if you are on equator the pole star will be on the horizon i.e. 0° altitude. If you are at Poles, altitude of the pole star will be 90°. Technically the altitude of pole star at any place on Earth is equal to the latitude of the place.

If the altitude of pole star varies and increases as you move towards higher latitude on Earth, the distance between horizon and pole star will also increase. This will result in more stars being circumpolar.

If you are at Poles, all the stars will be circumpolar and if you are at equator no star will be circumpolar.
