Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -17.9 \ m/s^2}}

Explanation:

Acceleration is equal to the change in velocity over the change in time.

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

The initial velocity is 35.8 meters per second. The final velocity is 0 meters per second when the car comes to a complete stop. The time is 2.0 seconds.

v_f= 0 \ m/s \\v_i= 35.8 \ m/s \\t= 2  \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

a=\frac{0 \ m/s - 35.8 \ m/s }{2 \ s}

Solve the numerator.

a= \frac{ -35.8 \ m/s} {2 \ s}

Divide.

a= -17.9 \ m/s/s = -17.9 \ m/s^2

The car's acceleration is <u>-17.9 meters per square second.</u> The acceleration is negative because the car was coming to a stop and slowing down.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

\omega = 0.016\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The rotation rate of the man is:

\omega = \frac{v}{R}

\omega = \frac{0.80\,\frac{m}{s} }{5\,m}

\omega = 0.16\,\frac{rad}{s}

The resultant rotation rate of the system is computed from the Principle of Angular Momentum Conservation:

(90\,kg)\cdot (5\,m)^{2}\cdot (0.16\,\frac{rad}{s} ) = [(90\,kg)\cdot (5\,m)^{2}+20000\,kg\cdot m^{2}]\cdot \omega

The final angular speed is:

\omega = 0.016\,\frac{rad}{s}

Briefly explain how a resonance tube works​
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

As the tines of the tuning fork vibrate at their own natural frequency, they created sound waves that impinge upon the opening of the resonance tube. These impinging sound waves produced by the tuning fork force air inside of the resonance tube to vibrate at the same frequency.
