Inga [223]3 years ago

Answer:

1:    v = √E/ρ where E is the elasticity and ρ is the density. Newton's assumed that sound wave travel in air under isothermal condition

2:  He corrected Newton's formula by assuming that, there is no heat exchange takes place as the compression and rarefaction takes place very fast. Thus, the temperature does not remain constant and the propagation of the sound wave in air is an adiabatic process.

Si un ciclista se mueve a una velocidad de 5 m/s y acelera 1 m/s2, a los 10 segundos su velocidad será
MrRa [10]

Answer:

A los 10 segundos su velocidad será 15 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

La aceleración de un objeto es una magnitud que indica cómo cambia la velocidad del objeto en una unidad de tiempo.

En otras palabras, la aceleración relaciona los cambios de la velocidad con el tiempo en el que se producen, es decir que mide cómo de rápidos son los cambios de velocidad:

  • Una aceleración grande significa que la velocidad cambia rápidamente.
  • Una aceleración pequeña significa que la velocidad cambia lentamente.
  • Una aceleración cero significa que la velocidad no cambia.

La aceleración "a" puede ser calculada mediante la expresión:

a=\frac{vfinal - vinicial}{tiempo}

En este caso:

  • a= 1 \frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • vfinal= ?
  • vinicial= 5 \frac{m}{s}
  • tiempo= 10 s

Reemplazando:

1\frac{m}{s^{2} }=\frac{vfinal - 5\frac{m}{s} }{10 s}

Resolviendo se obtiene:

1 \frac{m}{s^{2} } *10 s= vfinal - 5 \frac{m}{s}

10 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal - 5 \frac{m}{s}

10 \frac{m}{s} + 5 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal

15 \frac{m}{s} = vfinal

The Heaviside function H is defined by H(t)={0 if t&lt;0, 1 if t≥0 It is used in the study of electric circuits to represent the
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

Explanation:

The heaviside function is defined as:

H(t) =1 \quad t\geq 0\\H(t) =0 \quad t

so we see that the Heaviside function "switches on" whent=0, and remains switched on when t>0

If we want our heaviside function to switch on when t=5, we need the argument to the heaviside function to be 0 when t=5

Thus we define a function f:

f(t) = H(t-5)

The -5 term inside the heaviside function makes sure to displace the function 5 units to the right.

Now we just need to add a scale up factor of 240 V, because thats the voltage applied after the heaviside function switches on. (H(t-5) =1 when t\geq 5, so it becomes just a 1, which we can safely ignore.)

Therefore our final result is:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

I have made a sketch for you, and added it as attachment.

Holly puts a box into the trunk of her car. Later, she drives around an unbanked curve that has a radius of 48 m. The speed of t
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction is 0.544

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of the curve, R = 48 m

Speed of the car, v = 16 m/s

To calculate the minimum coefficient of static friction:

The centrifugal force on the box is in the outward direction and is given by:

F_{c} = \frac{mv^{2}}{R}  

f_{s} = \mu_{s}mg

where

\mu_{s} = coefficient of static friction

The net force on the box is zero, since, the box is stationary and is given by:

F_{net} = f_{s} - F_{c}  

0 = f_{s} - F_{c}  

\mu_{s}mg = \frac{mv^{2}}{R}  

\mu_{s} = \frac{v^{2}}{gR}  

\mu_{s} = \frac{16^{2}}{9.8\times 48} = 0.544

Which has more momentum, a speeding baseball or an ocean liner at rest in a harbor?
uranmaximum [27]
Momentum is (mass) times (speed), so nothing that is at rest has any momentum. If the battleship is at rest, then a mosquito in flight, a leaf falling from a tree, and your speedy baseball each have more momentum than the ship has.

Explain how wavelength and frequency are important in determining the type of light.
asambeis [7]
It is important to note that the electromagnetic spectrum has a variety of wavelength and frequency of light in it. Some lights we can see, while others are not visual to our naked eye. It is actually very important to determine the kind of light as different lights have different wavelengths and frequencies. some lights are of very high frequency like the gamma rays, while others are of far lower frequency. <span />
