Tim and Rick both can run at speed vr and walk at speed vw, with vr>vw. They set off together on a journey of distance D. Ric

k walks half of the distance and runs the other half. Tim walks half of the time and runs the other half.
1. How long does it take Rick to cover the distance D?
2. Find Rick's average speed for covering the distance D.
3. How long does it take Tim to cover the distance?
4. Who covers the distance D more quickly?
5. In terms of given quantities, by what amount of time, Delta t, does Tim beat Rick?

Answer:

Explanation:

1

t = D/2(vw) + D/2(vr)

2

V(ave) = 2.v(r).v(w) / [v(r) + v(w)]

3

t(T) = 2D / [v(w) + v(r)]

4

Tim does

The angle of incidence for a ray of light passing through the centre of curvature of a concave mirror is.
evablogger [386]

The angle of incidence for a ray of light passing through the center of curvature of a concave mirror is 0°.

The angle of incidence is the angle between the surface's normal and the incident ray. For a concave mirror, the normal of the surface is along the center of the curvature, and a ray of light passed through a center of curvature passes through the normal of the surface.

The ray of light retreats its path making a zero angle of reflection. The law of reflection state that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection; therefore, the angle of incidence of a concave surface passed through the center of curvature is zero degrees.

The loudness, L, measured in decibels (Db), of a sound intensity, I, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as , where a
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

3 times louder

Explanation:

The Loudness in decibel Db  L = 10㏒(I/I₀)  where I = sound intensity level and I₀ = threshold of hearing = 10⁻¹² W/m².

Now, for Jessica, I₁ = sound intensity level of Jessica's music = 10⁻⁹

and I₂ = sound intensity level of Braylee's music = 10⁻³

So, substituting the variables into the equation, we have

L₁ = 10㏒(I₁/I₀)

L₁ = 10㏒(10⁻⁹/10⁻¹²)

L₁ = 10㏒(10³)

L₁ = 3 × 10㏒10

L₁ = 30㏒10

L₁ = 30 dB

Now, for Braylee, I₂ = sound intensity level of Braylee's music = 10⁻³

So, substituting the variables into the equation, we have

L₂ = 10㏒(I₁/I₀)

L₂ = 10㏒(10⁻³/10⁻¹²)

L₂ = 10㏒(10⁹)

L₂ = 9 × 10㏒10

L₂ =90㏒10

L₂ = 90 dB

So, the number of times Braylee's music is louder than Jessica's music is L₂/L₁ = 90 dB/30 dB = 3

So, Braylee's music is 3 times louder than Jessica's music

During a plane showcase, a pilot makes circular "looping" with a speed equal to the sound speed (340 m/s). However, the pilot ca
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

1472.98 m

Explanation:

Data provided:

Speed of circular looping, v = 340 m/s

Acceleration, a = 8g

here,

g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Now,

the centripetal acceleration is given as,

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

r is the radius of the loop

on substituting the respective values, we get

8\times9.81=\frac{340^2}{r}

or

r = 1472.98 m

A bowling ball with a mass of 9kg is thrown down a lane with a constant speed of 3 m/s. The ball hits the 1.5kg pin, initially a
olasank [31]

Answer:

M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3    conservation of momentum

V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1      where V2 = speed of M1 after impact

V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9  =   (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s

Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign
