A5 kg frisbee is thrown from rest to a final speed of 12 m/s. What is the impulse of the frisbee?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

60kgm/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of frisbee  = 5kg

Final speed  = 12m/s

Unknown:

Impulse of the frisbee  = ?

Solution:

The impulse of the frisbee is the same as the change in momentum.

It is given as:

 Impulse  = mass (Final velocity  -  Initial velocity)

 Impulse  = 5(12  - 0)  = 60kgm/s

What happens to energy and frequency of a wave if its wavelength increases?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Waves can be measured using wavelength and frequency. ... The distance from one crest to the next is called a wavelength (λ). The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease.

A thermally insulated vessel containing a gas whose molar mass is equal to M and the ratio of specific heats cP /cV = γ moves wi
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp

Explanation:

Formula for Kinetic energy of the vessel = 1/2mv^2

Increase in internal energy Δu = nCVΔT

where n is the number of moles of the gas in vessel.

When the vessel is to stop suddenly, its kinetic energy will be used to increase the temperature of the gas

We say

1/2mv^2 = ∆u

1/2mv^2 = nCv∆T

Since n = m/M

1/2mv^2 = mCv∆T/M

Making ∆T subject of the formula we have

∆T = Mv^2/2Cv

Multiple the RHS by Cp/Cp

∆T = Mv^2/2Cv *Cp/Cp

Since Y = Cp/CV

∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp k

Since CV = R/Y - 1

We could also have

∆T = Mv^2(Y - 1)/2R k
