Answer:
The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.
Explanation:
<h3>
We apply the free fall formula to the ball:
</h3><h3>
</h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t </h3><h3>
i: Initial speed
</h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration=
</h3>
Known information
We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).
Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then,
=0
Height of Sears Tower calculation:
We replace in the equation 1 the data following;
Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft
Explanation:
A) Use Hooke's law to find the spring constant.
F = kx
40 N = k (0.4 m)
k = 100 N/m
B) Period of a spring-mass system is:
T = 2π √(m / k)
T = 2π √(2.6 kg / 100 N/m)
T = 1 s
Frequency is the inverse of period.
f = 1 / T
f = 1 Hz
Answer:
1000 Hz
Explanation:
<em>The frequency would be 1000 Hz.</em>
The frequency, wavelength, and speed of a wave are related by the equation:
<em>v = fλ ..................(1)</em>
where v = speed of the wave, f = frequency of the wave, and λ = wavelength of the wave.
Making f the subject of the formula:
<em>f = v/λ.........................(2)</em>
Also, speed (v) = distance/time.
From the question, distance = 900 m, time = 3.0 s
Hence, v = 900/3.0 = 300 m/s
Substitute v = 300 and λ = 0.3 into equation (2):
f = 300/0.3 = 1000 Hz
The answer would be letter choice B
