Answer:

All object changes are compared with a reference , which is an object that appears to stay in place.

Explanation:

In scientific experiments, the changes in the experimental object are observed by comparing the changes with a reference object. In the reference object, no changes are made and conditions are kept normal in it. For example, if we want to measure the distance of two cars from a point, the point will be the reference point from which the distance shall be measured. Hence, all changes are made by comparison from a reference object or point.

The density of aluminum is 2.7 × 103 kg/m3 . the speed of longitudinal waves in an aluminum rod is measured to be 5.1 × 103 m/s.

andrey2020 [161]

The speed of longitudinal waves, S, in a thin rod = âšYoung modulus / density , where Y is in N/m^2. So, S = âšYoung modulus/ density. Squaring both sides, we have, S^2 = Young Modulus/ density. So, Young Modulus = S^2 * density; where S is the speed of the longitudinal wave. Then Substiting into the eqn we have (5.1 *10^3)^2 * 2.7 * 10^3 = 26.01 * 10^6 * 2.7 *10^6 = 26.01 * 2.7 * 10^ (6+3) = 70.227 * 10 ^9

A circuit consists of a 12 V battery connected across a single resistor. If the current in the circuit is

finlep [7]

Answer:

4 Ohms

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

Voltage = I (current) . Resistance

You can change it the way you want to use for your purpose.

In this case...

R = V/I

R = 12/3

R = 4 Ohms (Ohm is the unit of measurement of eletrical resistance)

a) Calculate the magnitude of displacement of the car in 40 seconds. b) During which part of the journey was the car acceleratin

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) 600 meters

b) between 0 and 10 seconds, and between 30 and 40 seconds.

c) the average of the magnitude of the velocity function is 15 m/s

Explanation:

a) In order to find the magnitude of the car's displacement in 40 seconds,we need to find the area under the curve (integral of the depicted velocity function) between 0 and 40 seconds. Since the area is that of a trapezoid, we can calculate it directly from geometry:

$Area \,\,Trapezoid=(\left[B+b]\,(H/2)\\displacement= \left[(40-0)+(30-10)\right] \,(20/2)=600\,\,m$

b) The car is accelerating when the velocity is changing, so we see that the velocity is changing (increasing) between 0 and 10 seconds, and we also see the velocity decreasing between 30 and 40 seconds.

Notice that between 10 and 30 seconds the velocity is constant (doesn't change) of magnitude 20 m/s, so in this section of the trip there is NO acceleration.

c) To calculate the average of a function that is changing over time, we do it through calculus, using the formula for average of a function:

$Average\,of\,f(x)=\frac{1}{b-a} \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx$

Notice that the limits of integration for our case are 0 and 40 seconds, and that we have already calculated the area under the velocity function (the integral) in step a), so the average velocity becomes:

$Avearage=\frac{600\,\,m}{40\,\,s}= 15\,\,\frac{m}s}$
