Answer:

The height is  h = 0.5224 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The combined mass of the child and the sled is  m =  58.0 \  kg

    The  speed of the sled is  u = 3.20 \ m/s

Generally applying SOHCAHTOA on the slope which the combined mass is down from

   Here the length of the slope(L)  where the combined mass slides through  is the hypotenuses

   while the height(h) of the height of the slope is the opposite

Hence from SOHCAHTOA

      sin (\theta) =  \frac{h}{L}

=>   Lsin(\theta) = h

Generally from the kinematic equation we have that

   v^2  = u^2 + 2aL

Here the u  is the initial velocity of the combined mass which is zero since it started from rest

 and  a is the acceleration of the combined mass which is mathematically evaluated as

       a =  g * sin (\theta )

      v^2  = u^2 + 2 *  g * sin (\theta )L

=>   2Lsin(\theta ) =  \frac{v^2 - u^2 }{g}

=>   h = \frac{ v^2 - u^2}{2g}

=>   h = \frac{ 3.20^2 - 0^2}{2 * 9.8 }

=>   h = 0.5224 \ m

"a musical tone sounded on a piano has a frequency of 261.6 hz and a wavelength of 1.31 m. what is the speed of the sound wave
Andreyy89
To solve this question, we use the wave equation which is:
C=f*λ
where:
C is the speed;
f is the frequency;
λ is the wavelength
So in this case, plugging in our values in the problem. This will give us:
C = 261.6Hz × 1.31m
= 342.696 m/s is the answer.

Bosons & Fermions A new type of quantum object has been discovered. When a large collection of these are cooled to almost ab
Lena [83]

Answer:

Only 2,3,4 are true

Explanation:

Bosons Particles are particles that condense to the same state. Bosons particle have integral spin like 0 , $\hbar$, 2$\hbar, 3$\hbar$, etc. Bosons particles always have asymmetric wave function and there is exchange of particles.

1) It does not obey Fermi_ Dirac statistics

2) It obeys Bose-Einstein statistics

3) The object can have intrinsic spin 2$\hbar

4) Yes the Bosons particle is always symmetric with exchange of particles

5) No Bosons particle are symmetric and not asymmetric

A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?
inna [77]

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

  • Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
  • It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
  • Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s
