This problem, a squid at rest suddenly sees a predator coming toward it and needs to escape. Assume the following:______.

Physics
1 answer:
makkiz [27]3 years ago

Answer:

6.79 m/s

Explanation:

By applying the principle of conservation of momentum.

The total momentum = MV - mv = 0 (since the squid is beginning at rest)

the mass of the squid (M) in absence of water in its cavity = (6.5 - 1.75) kg

= 4.75 kg

speed of the squid (V) = 2.5 m/s

mass of the water expelled (m) = 1.75 kg

speed of the water (v) = ???

∴

4.75 × 2.5 = 1.75 × v

v = \dfrac{4.75 \times 2.5}{1.75 }

v = 6.79 m/s

Krista is playing tennis at the park. When the tennis ball flies toward her, Krista hits the ball with her racket, which causes
xenn [34]

Answer:

B. When the racket hits the tennis ball with a force, the tennis ball applies an equal but opposite force to the racket.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's third law of motion every action has equal and opposite reaction. So, when the force is applied by the racket on the ball then the ball also applies an equal intensity of force in the opposite direction on the racket. It is just that the the force on the racket is absorbed by the player holding it.

The equation of a transverse wave traveling along a string is 1 1 y (2.00 mm)sin[(20 m )x (600 s )t] − − = − Find the (a) amplit
Lelu [443]

Answer:

a)Amplitude ,A = 2 mm

b)f=95.49 Hz

c)V=  30 m/s  ( + x direction )

d)  λ = 0.31 m

e)Umax= 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

y=2\ mm\ sin[(20m^{-1})x-(600s^{-1})t]

As we know that standard form of wave equation given as

y=A sin(\phi -\omega t)

A= Amplitude

ω=Frequency (rad /s)

t=Time

Φ = Phase difference

y=2\ mm\ sin[(20m^{-1})x-(600s^{-1})t]

So from above equation we can say that

Amplitude ,A = 2 mm

Frequency ,ω= 600 rad/s                     (2πf=ω)

ω= 2πf

f= ω /2π

f= 300/π = 95.49 Hz

K= 20 rad/m

So velocity,V

V= ω /K

V= 600 /20 = 30 m/s  ( + x direction )

V = f λ

30 = 95.49 x  λ

 λ = 0.31 m

We know that speed is the rate of displacement

U=\dfrac{dy}{dt}

U=2\ mm\ sin[(20m^{-1})x-(600s^{-1})t]

U=1200\ cos[(20m^{-1})x-(600s^{-1})t]\ mm/s

The maximum velocity

Umax = 1200 mm/s

Umax= 1.2 m/s

Sound exits a diffraction horn loudspeaker through a rectangular opening like a small doorway. Such a loudspeaker is mounted out
blondinia [14]

Answer:

\theta = 20.98 degree

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the sound is given as

v = 332 + 0.6 t

now at t = 273 k = 0 degree

v = 332 m/s

so we have

a sin\theta = N\lambda

a sin\theta = N(\frac{v_1}{f})

now when temperature is changed to 313 K we have

t = 313 - 273 = 40 degree

now we have

v = 332 + (0.6)(40)

v_2 = 356 m/s

a sin\theta' = N(\frac{v_2}{f})

now from two equations we have

\frac{sin19.5}{sin\theta} = \frac{332}{356}

so we have

sin\theta = 0.358

\theta = 20.98 degree
