Answer:

The horizontal distance the pumpkin will travel after it slips from the eagle is 17.02 m

Explanation:

Given;

height above the ground, h = 16.4 m

speed of the eagle, v = 9.3 m/s

The time it will take the pumpkin to fall at the given height is calculated as;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }\\\\t =  \sqrt{\frac{2*16.4}{9.8} }\\\\t = 1.83 \ s

The horizontal distance traveled at this time is given by;

x = vt

x = (9.3)(1.83)

x = 17.02 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance the pumpkin will travel after it slips from the eagle is 17.02 m

3. If a pipe with flowing water has a cross-sectional area nine times greater at point 2 than at point 1, what would be the rela
shusha [124]

Answer:

The velocity of the flow at point 1 is nine times greater than the velocity at point 2.

Explanation:

We know that the same volume of water entering through point 1 must exit through point 2.

The volume of water per unit of time or the volumetric flow is defined by:

V_{flow}=v*A\\ where:\\V_{flow}= flow [m^3/s]\\v=velocity[m/s]\\A=area [m^2]

If  A_{2}=9*A_{1}  \\

therefore

v_{1} *A_{1} = v_{2} *A_{2} \\v_{1} *A_{1} = v_{2} *9A_{1} \\\\v_{1} = 9v_{2}  \\

A police car on the side of the road (at rest) uses a radar gun to catch speeders as they approach it. The frequency the radar g
oee [108]

Answer:

\Delta f = 1.49 \times 10^9 Hz

Explanation:

Apparent frequency that is received to the speeder is given as

f_1 = f_0\frac{v + v_o}{v}

f_1 = (8 \times 10^9)\frac{340 + v_o}{340}

here we know that

v_o = 65 mph = 29 m/s

now we have

f_1 = (8 \times 10^9)\frac{340 + 29}{340}

f_1 = 8.68 \times 10^9 Hz

now the frequency that is received back from the speeder is given as

f_2 = f_1\frac{v}{v- v_o}

f_2 = (8.68 \times 10^9}\frac{340}{340 - 29}

f_2 = 9.49 \times 10^9 Hz

So difference is the frequency is given as

\Delta f = 9.49 \times 10^9 - 8 \times 10^9

\Delta f = 1.49 \times 10^9 Hz

if the instantaneous current in the circuit is giveen by I=3 sin theta amperes, the rms value of the current will be
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

I_{rms}=2.12\ A

Explanation:

Given that,

The instantaneous current in the circuit is giveen by :

I=3\sin\theta\ A

We need to find the rms value of the current.

The general equation of current is given by :

I=I_o\sin\theta

It means, I_o=3\ A

We know that,

I_{rms}=\dfrac{I_o}{\sqrt2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt2}\\\\=2.12\ A

So, the rms value of current is 2.12 A.
