Answer:Due to change in direction

Explanation:

Given

Initially train has traveled a 100 km in North and after exchanging some railroad cars, it traveled 100 in south.

The velocity of the train changes as it direction of motion changes. Velocity is the vector quantity which require direction and magnitude for its reperesentation.

Is cold fusion science or pseudoscience
kondor19780726 [428]

The experiments that claimed to demonstrate cold fusion were found
to have been faulty by others who reviewed them.  Also, nobody else
was able to reproduce the finding in other laboratories.  In the world
of Science, this pretty much says that the initial claims were unfounded.

<span>the statement that is true regarding flexibility is : b. a joint's range of motion will be lost if the joint is not used regularly. Our body is like a machine. If we not constantly heat it up, our body will be more prone to injury.

Question:
exis [7]

Answer:

She can swing 1.0 m high.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

And the potential energy:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of Jane.

v = velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).

h = height.

Then:

ME = KE + PE

Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:

ME = KE + PE      (PE = 0)

ME = KE

ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²

ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²

When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:

ME = KE + PE      (KE = 0)

ME = PE

ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:

m · 10.125 m²/s² =  m · 9.8 m/s² · h

10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s²  = h

h = 1.0 m

She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.
kaheart [24]

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.the speed of transverse waves on the wire would be  372.77 m/s

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

It is a particular variety of mechanical waves made up of the disruption brought on by the movements of the energy. In an elastic medium like the air, a sound wave travels through compression and rarefaction.

For calculating the wave velocity of the sound waves generated from the piano can be calculated by the formula

V= √F/μ

where v is the wave velocity of the wave travel on the string

F is the tension in the string of piano

μ is the mass per unit length of the string

As given in question a steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

The μ is the mass per unit length of the string would be

μ = 4.80/(1.150×1000)

μ = 0.0041739 kg/m

By substituting the respective values of the tension on the string and the density(mass per unit length) in the above formula of the wave velocity

V= √F/μ

V=√(580/0.0041739)

V =  372.77 m/s

Thus,  the speed of transverse waves on the wire comes out to be  372.77 m/s
