A)
W = Fd
W = (30Lb)(10 ft)
W = 300ft.Lb

b)
work-energy theorem: W = ∆E
∆E = 300ft.Lb

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

The intensity, I, of the sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, r, from the source.

$I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}$

Hence,

$I_1r_1^2 = I_2r_2^2$

$r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}}$

From the question, $I_2$ is half of $I_1$

$r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{0.5I_1}}$

$r_2 = r_1\sqrt{2}$

$r_2 = 113\text{ m}\sqrt{2} = 160 \text{ m}$

A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2gh$

$h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$ ....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

$h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2$

$h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2$

$t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}$

Put the value of h from equation (I)

$t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}$

$t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}$

According to question,

$t_{1}+t_{2}=10$

$t_{1}=t_{2}$

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

$\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10$

$\dfrac{2v}{g}=10$

$v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}$

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

$v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}$

$v=50\ m/s$

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.
