Answer:

1. The final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. The distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m

Explanation:

1. Determination of the final velocity

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Final velocity (v) =?

The final velocity of the truck can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

v = 0 + (3 × 5)

v = 0 + 15

v = 15 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. Determination of the distance travelled

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Distance (s) =?

The distance travelled by the truck can be obtained as follow:

s = ut + ½at²

s = (0 × 5) + (½ × 3 × 5²)

s = 0 + (½ × 3 × 25)

s = 0 + 37.5

s = 37.5 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m

I will mark you brainlist. How can you use a tuning fork to tune a piano?

Phoenix [80]

A tuning fork's job is to establish a single note that everybody can tune to.

Most tuning forks are made to vibrate at 440 Hz, a tone known to musicians as "concert A." To tune a piano, you would start by playing the piano's "A" key while ringing an "A" tuning fork. If the piano is out of tune, you'll hear a distinct warble between the note you're playing and the note played by the tuning fork; the further apart the warbles, the more out-of-tune the piano. By either tightening or loosening the piano's strings, you reduce the warble until it's in line with the tuning fork. Once the "A" key is in tune, you would then adjust all of the instrument's 87 other keys to match. The method is much the same for most other instruments. Whether you're tuning a clarinet or guitar, simply play a concert A and adjust your instrument accordingly

Explanation:

It can be a bit tricky to hold a tuning fork while manipulating an instrument, which is why some musicians decide to clench the base of a ringing tuning fork in their teeth. This has the unique effect of transmitting sound through your bones, allowing your brain to "hear" the tone through your jaw. According to some urban legends, touching your teeth with a vibrating tuning fork is enough to make them explode. It's a myth, obviously, but if you have a cavity or a chipped tooth, you'll quickly find this method to be unbelievably painful.

Luckily, you can also buy tuning forks that come mounted on top of a resonator, a hollow wooden box designed to amplify a tuning fork's vibrations. In 1860, a pair of German inventors even devised a battery-powered tuning fork that musicians didn't need to ring again and again

Extreme-sports enthusiasts have been known to jump off the top of El Capitan, a sheer granite cliff of height 910 m in Yosemite

german

Answer:

The jumper is in freefall for 12.447 seconds.

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating how far the jumper falls.

Initial height (on cliff) = 910 m

Final height after freefall = 150 m

Distance the jumper falls in freefall = 910 - 150 = 760 m

We can now use the equation of motion below to solve for the time:

$s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)$

here. acceleration = 9.81 m/s (due to gravity)

initial speed (u) = 0 m/s (because vertical speed is 0 at the start)

and distance (s) = 760 meters (as calculated above)

So for speed we get:

$760=0*t+0.5(9.81*t^2)$

$760=4.905t^2$

t = 12.447 seconds

In our first example we will consider a very simple application of Newton’s second law. A worker with spikes on his shoes pulls

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Acceleration= $0.5m/s^2$

Speed=0.67 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Horizontal force=F=20 N

Mass of box=m=40 kg

We know that

Acceleration= $a=\frac{F}{m}$

Using the formula

Acceleration of box= $\frac{20}{40}=0.5m/s^2$

The acceleration of the box= $0.5m/s^2$

Initial velocity=u=0

Force=F=30 N

Distance=s=0.3 m

$a=\frac{30}{40}=\frac{3}{4} ms^{-2}$

$v^2-u^2=2as$

Substitute the values

$v^2-0=2\times \frac{3}{4}\times 0.3=0.45$

$v^2=0.45$

$v=\sqrt{0.45}=0.67m/s$

Hence, the speed of the box after it has been pulled a distance of 0.3 m=0.67 m/s

bazaltina [42]

<span>Answer: initial I = (m/2)LÂ˛/3 + (m/2)LÂ˛ where L = Â˝ the length of the rod, and the vertical half can be treated as a point mass. initial I = mLÂ˛(1/6 + 1/2) = 2mLÂ˛/3 final I = m(2L)Â˛/3 = 4mLÂ˛/3 Since I has doubled and momentum is conserved, Ď‰ has halved. Ď‰ = 3.9 rad/s. Formulaically: 2mLÂ˛/3 * 7.8rad/s = 4mLÂ˛/3 * Ď‰</span>
