Two balls are thrown against a wall with the same velocity. The first ball is made of rubber and bounces straight back with some

non-zero speed. The second ball is made of clay and sticks to the wall after impact. If we assume the collision time was the same for each ball, which ball experienced a greater average acceleration during the collision with the wall? A. the average acceleration was the sameB. the clay ball C. there is not enough information D. the rubber ball

Answer:

A. the average acceleration was the same

Explanation:

Acceleration is calculated by finding the difference of the initial velocity from the final velocity (on impact, usually 0) and then dividing by the amount of time that took place. If we assume that both balls were thrown at the same initial force, and ended up hitting the wall at the same time then we can say that the average acceleration was the same. If the initial velocity was not the same then we would need the initial velocity of each ball in order to calculate the acceleration of each object and determine which had a greater acceleration.

How do I find the speed of sound when given Frequency and displacement?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer: Taking into account sound is a wave, we can use the information of the displacement (generally given as a graph) to find the wavelength and frequency, then we can calculate the speed with the formula of the speed of a wave.

Explanation:

If we have the displacement graph of the sound wave, we can find its amplitude, its wavelength and period (which is the inverse of frequency).

Now, if we additionally have the frequency as data, we can use the equation of the speed of a wave:

s=\lambda f

Where:

s is the speed of the sound wave

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency
