The change in velocity from 30 m/s north to 40 m/s south is a change of 70 m/s south
Answer:
14.2 m
Explanation:
Using conservation of energy:
PE at top = KE at bottom
mgh = ½ mv²
h = v² / (2g)
h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)
h = 14.2 m
Using kinematics:
Given:
v₀ = 16.7 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
Find: Δy
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy
Δy = 14.2 m
Acceleration of cheetah (a) = 4m/s²
time = 10s
initial velocity(u) = 0
final velocity = v
distance travelled = s
v = u +at = 0 + 10×4 = 40m/s
s = (v²-u²)/2a = 40²/(2×4) = 1600/8 = 200m
The frequency of the wave is 4 Hz
