Answer:

the frequency of the hummingbird is 80 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

number of times the hummingbird beats its wings, n = 4,800 times

the duration of this motion, t = 1 minute

The frequency of the hummingbird wings is calculated as follows;

$frequency = \frac{number \ of \ times}{time \ taken} \\\\frequency= \frac{4,800}{1 \min \ \times \ 60s} = 80 \ Hz$

Therefore, the frequency of the hummingbird is 80 Hz.

inessss [21]

Answer:

the stopping distance is greater than the free length of the track, the vehicle leaves the track before it can brake

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the kinematics relations, let's start by finding the final velocity of the acceleration period

v² = v₀² + 2 a₁ x

indicate that the initial velocity is zero

v² = 2 a₁ x

let's calculate

v = $\sqrt {2 \ 15.0 \ 645}$

v = 143.666 m / s

now for the second interval let's find the distance it takes to stop

v₂² = v² - 2 a₂ x₂

in this part the final velocity is zero (v₂ = 0)

0 = v² - 2 a₂ x₂

x₂ = v² / 2a₂

let's calculate

x₂ = $\frac{ 143.666^2 }{2 \ 18.2}$

x₂ = 573 m

as the stopping distance is greater than the free length of the track, the vehicle leaves the track before it can brake

What is the distance that a car travels if it was brought to stop in 5 seconds and if it was traveling at 110 Km/h

Triss [41]

Answer:

Suppose that the acceleration is a constant, a.

a(t) = a.

To write the velocity equation, we must integrate over time, and the constant of integration will be equal to the initial velocity, in this case is 110km/h.

v(t) = a*t + 110km/h

And we know that at t = 5s, the car was brought to stop, so the velocity must be zero.

v(5s) = 0 = a*5s + 110km/h.

a = (110km/h)*(1/5s)

now we have that:

1 hour = 3600 seconds.

1km = 1000m

then:

110km/h = (110*1000/3600)m/s = 30.56 m/s

Then we have:

a = (-30.55 m/s)/5s = -6.11 m/s^2

Now the velocity equation is:

v(t) = -6.11m/s^2*t + 30.56m/s

To write the positon equation we must integrate over time again, we can get:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-6.11m/s^2)*t^2 + (30.56m/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial position, here i will assume that is zero, because it does no really mater.

The total displacement of the car will be equal to p(5s)

p(5s) = (1/2)*(-6.11m/s^2)*(5s)^2 + (30.56m/s)*(5s) = 76.425 meters.

A 50-cm3 block of wood is floating on water, and a 50-cm3 chunk of iron is totally submerged in the water. Which one has the gre

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Iron

Explanation:

The buoyant force equals to the weight of water being displaced by the object.

Since, the volume of both iron and wood is equal and the wood is not completely submerged, but the iron block is completely submerged i.e more volume of the water is being displaced by the iron block.

Hence, the buoyant force is more on the iron.
