Answer:

The Wednesday test launch stored more potential energy, and launched the spacecraft at a faster speed because the stronger magnetic field closer to the magnet resulted in a greater increase in potential energy.

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour in 2.22 s

muminat

Answer:

Acceleration = 10.06 m/s²

Explanation:

1 mile = 1.6093km

1609.3m = 1 mile

1 m = $\frac{1}{1609}$ mile

50.0 miles/hour = $\frac{50 * 1609.3}{60 * 60}$ m/s

= 22.35m/s

from equation

S = Ut + 1/2 at²

v = U + at

22.35 = 0 + a * 2.22

a = 22.35 ÷ 2.22

= 10.06 m/s²

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 15.1 Mechanical Waves. Waves on a string are described by the following general equation y(

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

0.0549 m

Explanation:

Given that

equation y(x,t)=Acos(kx−ωt)

speed v = 8.5 m/s

amplitude A = 5.5*10^−2 m

wavelength λ = 0.5 m

transverse displacement = ?

v = angular frequency / wave number

and

wave number = 2π/ λ

wave number = 2 * 3.142 / 0.5

wave number = 12.568

angular frequency = v k

angular frequency = 8.5 * 12.568

angular frequency = 106.828 rad/sec ~= 107 rad/sec

equation y(x,t)=Acos(kx−ωt)

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 x−107t)

when x =0 and and t = 0

maximum y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 (0) − 107 (0))

maximum y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 m

and when x = x = 1.52 m and t = 0.150 s

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 (1.52) −107(0.150) )

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 × (0.9986)

y(x,t) = 0.0549 m

so the transverse displacement is 0.0549 m

As the launch force increase the launch velocity will

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

As the launch force increase the launch velocity will

Increase

The reason for your answer to number six is because

There is a direct relationship between force and acceleration.

Explanation:

It is known all over the place that, there is a direct relationship between Force and acceleration of an object leading to an increase in force being directly proportional to the increase in the acceleration of the given object and vice versa.

f an arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h(t)=35t−0.83t

inysia [295]

Answer:

The velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

An arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height after t seconds is given by the equation:

$h(t)=35t-0.83t^2$

We know that the rate of change of displacement is equal to the velocity of an object.

$v(t)=\dfrac{dh(t)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=\dfrac{d(35t-0.83t^2)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=35-1.66t$

Velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds will be :

$v(t)=35-1.66t\\\\v(t)=35-1.66(3)\\\\v(t)=30.02\ m/s$

So, the velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A small piece of Styrofoam packing material is dropped from a height of 2.60 m above the ground. Until it reaches terminal speed

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) After the attainment of terminal speed , object takes 4.5 s to cover a distance of 2 m

So terminal speed V = 2 / 4.5

= .444 m /s

When it attains terminal speed , acceleration becomes zero

0 = g - B x .444

B = 22.25 s⁻¹

b ) At t = 0 , v = 0

a = g - B v

a = g at t = 0

c ) When v = .15

a = g - 22.25 x .15

= 9.8 - 3.31

= 6.5 m /s²
