Answer:

A. The sound wave will reflect off Buildings and automobiles.

Explanation:

This is because the sound waves would more likely propagate through diffraction through buildings and transmission through the air. It is also more likely to be absorbed by buildings than for multiple reflections to occur off buildings and automobiles. In the process of reflection, these materials would absorb the sound energy thereby reducing its ability to reflect.

A 45.00 kg person in a 43.00 kg cart is coasting with a speed of 19 m/s before it goes up a hill. there is no friction, what is
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the person in cart, m₁ = 45 kg

mass of the cart, m₂ = 43 kg

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

final speed of the cart before it goes up the hill, v = 19 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{max}\\\\ gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}v^2_{max}\\\\h_{max} = \frac{v^2_{max}}{2g} \\\\h_{max} =\frac{(19)^2}{2\times 9.8} \\\\h_{max} = 18.42 \ m

Therefore, the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m

A. Obtain the following: microwave, ruler, something meltable (e.g. candy bar, marshmallows) B. A microwave works by setting up
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

E = 124.7 N / C

Explanation:

Let's analyze the exercise: the microwave creates an electromagnetic wave of frequency F = 2.45 GHz, this wave is introduced into the microwave cavity and is reflected on the metal walls, which is why one or more standing waves are formed.

The electric field of the standing wave is

            I = E²

            E =√I

where I is the intensity of the radiation.

What is it

             I = P / A

where P is the effective emission power, almost all the power of the microwave and A is the area of ​​the cavity, in the most used microwaves

P = 700 W and the area is A = 25 x 18 cm² = 0.045 m²

             I = 700 / 0.045

             I = 15555.56 W/m²

let's calculate the electric field

            E = √15555.56

            E = 124.7 N / C

The weights in atwoods machine, starting at rest, attain a velocity of 2ft/sec in one sec. Find the ratio of the masses
Orlov [11]
Refer to the figure shown below.
Let m₁ and m₂ e the two masses.
Let a = the acceleration.
Let T =  tension over the frictionless pulley.

Write the equations of motion.
m₂g - T = m₂a            (1)
T - m₁g = m₁a            (2)

Add equations (1) and (2).
m₂g - T + T - m₁g = (m₁ + m₂)a
(m₂ - m₁)g = (m₁ + m₂)a

Divide through by m₁.
(m₂/m₁ - 1)g = (1 + m₂/m₁)a

Define r = m₂/m₁ as the ratio of the two masses. Then
(r - 1)g = (1 +r)a
r(g-a) = a + g
r = (g - a)/(g + a)

With  = 2 ft/s from rest, the acceleration is
a = 2/32.2 = 0.062 ft/s²
Therefore
r = (32.2 - 0.062)/(32.2 + 0.062) = 0.9962

Answer:
The ratio of masses is 0.9962 (heavier mass divided by the lighter mass).

A 1500-kg car accelerates from 0 to 25 m/s in 7.0s with negligible friction and air resistance. What is the average power delive
NARA [144]

Answer:

90 hp

Explanation:

Power = work / time

P = ½ (1500 kg) (25 m/s)² / 7.0 s

P = 67,000 W

P = 90 hp

A boat produced water waves of frequency 4 Hz and wavelength 2m, if it reached the shore after 2 seconds how far is the boat fro
kap26 [50]

Answer:

S = 16 m

Explanation:

Given that

The frequency of the water waves, f = 4 Hz

The wavelength of the water waves, λ = 2 m

The time the waves reached the shore, t = 2 s

The relation between the velocity, wavelength, and the frequency of the wave is given by the relation,

                                           v = f λ    m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                           v = 4 x 2

                                              = 8 m/s

The velocity of the water waves is v = 8 m/s

The distance between the shore and boat is given by

                                            s = v x t

                                               = 8 x 2

                                               = 16 m

Hence, the distance between the boat and the shore is, s = 16 m
