The answer is D. Sound insulators prevent sound from being transmitted better than elastic solids because sound insulators basically muffle and block the sound waves.

What is the distance covered by a Freely falling object 5 seconds after being dropped ? After 6 seconds?
mario62 [17]

This year is 60 years since I learned this stuff, and one of the things I always remembered is the formula for the distance a dropped object falls:

D = 1/2 A T²

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time²)

The reason I never forgot it is because it's SO useful SO often.  You really should memorize it.  And don't bury it too deep in your toolbox ... you'll be needing it again very soon. (In fact, if you had learned it the first time you saw it, you could have solved this problem on your own today.)

The problem doesn't tell us what planet this is happening on, so let's make it easy and just assume it's on Earth.  Then the 'acceleration' is Earth gravity, and that's 9.8 m/s² .

In 5 seconds:

D = 1/2 A T²

D = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (5 sec)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) (25 sec²)

D = 122.5 meters


In 6 seconds:

D = 1/2 A T²

D = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (6 sec)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) (36 sec²)

D = 176 meters

In order to rendezvous with an asteroid passing close to the earth, a spacecraft must be moving at 8.50×103m/s relative to the e
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

v₀ = 13.9 10³ m / s

Explanation:

Let's analyze this exercise we can use the basic kinematics relationships to love the initial velocity and the acceleration we can look for from Newton's second law where force is gravitational attraction.

    F = m a

    G m M / x² = m dv / dt = m dv/dx  dx/dt

    G M / x² = dv/dx   v

    GM dx / x² = v dv

We integrate

    v² / 2 = GM (-1 / x)

We evaluate between the lower limits where x = Re = 6.37 10⁶m  and the velocity v = vo and the upper limit x = 2.50 10⁸m  with a velocity of v = 8.50 10³ m/s

    ½ ((8.5 10³)² - v₀²) = GM (-1 /(2.50 10⁸) + 1 / (6.37 10⁶))

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = 2 G M (+0.4 10⁻⁸ - 1.57 10⁻⁷)

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = 2 6.63 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ (-15.3  10⁻⁸)

    72.25 10⁶ - v₀² = -1.213  10⁸

    v₀² = 72.25 10⁶ + 1,213 10⁸

    v₀² = 193.6 10⁶

    v₀ = 13.9 10³ m / s

A spring gun is made by compressing a spring in a tube and then latching the spring at the compressed position. A 4.87-g pellet
Serga [27]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The work done by the spring is = 0.27 J

Explanation:

Force = torque × length

Given

F = 9.13 N

length (L) = 5.91 cm  = 0.0591 m                         [Note 1 m = 100 cm ]

considering the formula above

          9.13 = k * 0.0591    where k denotes torque

          k = 154.48\ N/m

Energy Stored  = \frac{1}{2} k x^2

                          = \frac{1}{2} * 154.48 * (0.0591)^2

                         = 0.27J

How are base units and derived units related?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

SI derived units

Other quantities, called derived quantities, are defined in terms of the seven base quantities via a system of quantity equations. The SI derived units for these derived quantities are obtained from these equations and the seven SI base units.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :D
