A brick is moving at a speed of 3 m/s and a pebble is moving at a speed of 5 m/s. If both objects have the same kinetic energy,

what is the ratio of the brick's mass to the rock's mass

Answer:

let M be the mass of brick

let m be the mass of the pebble

.5M(3)^2 =KE

.5m(5)^2= KE

.5M9 = .5m25

9M = 25m

(9/25)M = m

A uniformly charged ring of radius 10.0 cm has a total charge of 66.0 μC. Find the electric field on the axis of the ring at the

Tems11 [23]

To solve this problem we will apply the mathematical consideration of the electric field on an axial axis of a ring. This definition is already established mathematically and is a subordinate of the definition of the magnetic field of Coulomb's laws. It can be expressed as,

$E = \frac{kQx}{\sqrt{(x^2+R^2)^3}}$

Here,

k = Coulomb's constant

Q = Charge

x = Distance on the axial line

R = Radius of the circle or ring

At x = 1 cm, we have that the total charge is 66.0 μC and the radius 0.1m, then replacing,

$E = \frac{(9*10^9)(66*10^{-6})(0.01)}{\sqrt{((0.01)^2+(0.1)^2)^3}}$

$E = 5.85*10^6 N/C$

Therefore the electric field on the axis of the ring is 5.85MN/C

Wire 1 has a resistance R1. Wire 2 is made of the same material, with length 1/2 as long and diameter 1/4. What is the resistanc

hodyreva [135]

-- reduce the length of a wire to 1/2 . . . cut the resistance in half

-- reduce the diameter to 1/4 . . . reduce the cross-section area by (1/4²) . . . increase the resistance by 16x .

-- R2 = (R1) · (1/2) · (16) = 8 · R1

<em>-- R2 / R1 = 8</em>

A slide whistle is an open-closed tube with an adjustable plunger that changes the length. You are playing the slide whistle and

Serjik [45]

Answer:

df / ft = -n 12 n= 1, 3, 5, ...

Explanation:

The speed of sound is

v = λ f

In a whistle that we approach by an open tube at one end and closed at the other, standing waves occur, which has a node in the closed part and a maximum in the open pate, whereby wavelength and the distance of the tube are related, the fundamental wave is

λ₁ = 4L

The harmonics are

λ₃ = 4L / 3

λ₅ = 4L / 5

The general formula

λₙ = 4L / n

with n = 1, 3, 5,…

We substitute and clear in the first equation

f = v n / 4L n = 1, 3, 5,…

Let's use derivatives to find the frequency change

df / dt = v n /4 dL⁻¹ / dt

d / dt (1/L) = - 1 / L² dL / dt

Where dL / dt = 8 cm / s

We replace

df / dt = - n v / L2 dL / dt

Let's calculate

df / dt = - n 340/152 8

df / ft = -n 12 n= 1, 3, 5, ...

A city located on the coast of North America has warmer winters and cooler summers than a city at the same elevation and latitud

Vesna [10]

I don't like any of those choices. But if you absolutely have to pick your answer
from this list, then it has to be 'D'.

The ocean is an enormous storage vessel for heat. It gets heat from the air in
the Summer ... which somewhat cools places near the coast ... and it releases
heat into the air during the Winter ... which warms places near the coast.

So I guess it's true that ocean surfaces change temperature more slowly than
land surfaces do, and they influence the land nearby in the process. But this
ignores the reason for the slow changes in ocean surface temperature. It's a
lot like saying that the loud noise produced by a race car is the result of the
car's ability to appear in a far different location after a short time.
