When two or more waves meet, they interact with each other. The interaction of waves with other waves is called wave interference. Wave interference may occur when two waves that are traveling in opposite directions meet. The two waves pass through each other, and this affects their amplitude.

A Frisbee of radius 0.15 m is accelerating at a constant rate from 7.1 revolutions per second to 9.3 revolutions per second in 6
Greeley [361]

Answer: 17.03 rad/s^2

Explanation: One of the equation of motion that defines a circular motion with constant acceleration is given below as

ω = ω0 + αt

Where ω = final angular velocity = 9.3 rev/s

ω0 = initial angular velocity = 7.1 rev/s

α = angular acceleration = ?

t = time taken = 6.0s

By substituting the parameters, we have that

9.3 = 7.1 +α(6)

9.3 - 7.1 = 6α

16.3 = 6α

α = 16.3/6

α = 2.71 rev/s^2

We can also give the answer in rad/s^2 ( another unit of angular acceleration) by multipying by 2π

Hence, α = 2.71 × 2π , where π = 3.142

α = 17.03 rad/s^2

The boom of a fire truck raises a fireman (and his equipment – total weight 280 lbs) 60 ft into the air to fight a building fire
Simora [160]

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight = 280 lbs

Height = 60 ft

Power = 3.50 hp

(a). We need to calculate the work done by the boom on the fireman

Using formula of work done

Work\ done =Weight\ \times height

W'=W\times h

Put the value into the formula

W'=280\times60

W'= 16800 ftlbf

W'=\dfrac{16800}{778.169}

W'=21.59\ Btu

The work done by the boom is 21.59 Btu.

(b). We know that,

1 hp = 550 ft lbf

So, P = 3.50\times550

P=1925\ ft-lbf/s

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

t = \dfrac{W}{P}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{16800}{1925}

t =8.7\ sec

The time is 8.7 sec.

Hence, This is the required solution.

an electric current of 285.0 ma flows 674. milliseconds. Calculate the amount of electric charge transported. Be sure your answe
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

<em>The amount of electric charge transported = 0.192 C</em>

Explanation:

Electric Charge: This is defined as the product of electric current and time in an electric circuit, The S.I unit of electric charge is Coulombs (C)

Q = It..................... Equation 1

Where Q = Electric charge, I = electric current, t = time.

<em>Given:</em> I = 285 mA, t = 674 milliseconds.

<em>Conversion: (i) Convert from 285 mA to A = (285/1000) A = 0.285 A</em>

<em>       (ii) convert from 674 milliseconds to seconds = (674/1000) s = 0.674 s          </em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

Q = 0.285 × 0.674

<em>Q = 0.192 C</em>

<em>Therefore the amount of electric charge transported = 0.192 C</em>

<em></em>

What is the formula for conservation of momentum
olga55 [171]

Answer:

The general equation for conservation of momentum during a collision between n number of objects is given as: [m i ×v i a ] = [m i ×v i b ] Where m i is the mass of object i , v i a is the velocity of object i before the collision, and v i b is the velocity of object i after the collision.
