Answer:

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave

Explanation:

A high energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude; a low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude. The energy imparted to a pulse will only affect the amplitude of that pulse.

Hope this helped!!!

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = $F_1=5.6 lb$

Area of the piston = $A_1=0.6 inches^2$

Force applied on the brakes = $F_2$

Area of the brakes = $A_2=1.8 inches^2$

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

$\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}$

$F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb$

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Answer:

m = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.

Explanation:

Assuming that the mass of the stone is much smaller than the mass of the planet, we can get the mass, applying the Universal Law of Gravitation to both masses, as follows:

Fg = G* ms* mp / rp²

Now, if we apply Newton's 2nd Law to the mass of the stone, we can get the gravitational acceleration, as follows:

Fg = ms*a = ms*g ⇒ g = G*mp / rp²

First of all, we need to get the value of g.

Assuming that this acceleration is constant, we can appy the kinematic equations to this situation.

We know that the stone is thrown upward with an initial velocity vo = 15 m/s.

At the highest point in the trajectory, just before of changing direction, the stone comes momentarily to a stop.

At this point, applying the definition of acceleration, we can write:

vf = vo -g*t ⇒ 0 = vo -gt ⇒ g = vo/t (1)

We have the total time since the stone was thrown upwards, not the one used for the upward trajectory.

It can be showed, using the expression for the displacement (which is the same in both directions) that the time used for going up, it's the same used to go down, so the time that we need to put in (1). is just the half of the total time.

So, replacing in (1) we get the value of g, as follows:

g = 15 m/s / 4.5 s = 3.33 m/s²

Now, we can replace this value in the equation that gives us g based in the Universal Law of Gravitation, as follows:

g=G*mp / rp² (2)

Before solving for mp, however, we need to get the value of the radius of the planet.

Assuming that it's a perfect sphere, we can get this value from the value of the circumference at the planet's equator:

rp = 2*π*rp / 2*π ⇒ rp = 1.0*10⁵ km / 2*π = 15,915 km.

With this value for rp, we can solve (2) for mp, as follows:

mp= g*rp² / G = 3.33 m/s² * (15,915 km)² / 6,67*10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

mp = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.

Attempt 2 You have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 15151515 l

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

v = 28.98 ft / s

Explanation:

For this problem we must solve it in parts, let's start by looking for the speed of the two cars after the collision

In the exercise they indicate the weight of each car

Wₐ = 1500 lb

W_b = 1125 lb

Car B's velocity from v_b = 42.0 mph westward, car A travels east

let's find the mass of the vehicles

W = mg

m = W / g

mₐ = Wₐ / g

m_b = W_b / g

mₐ = 1500/32 = 46.875 slug

m_b = 125/32 = 35,156 slug

Let's reduce to the english system

v_b = 42.0 mph (5280 foot / 1 mile) (1h / 3600s) = 61.6 ft / s

We define a system formed by the two vehicles, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the moment is preserved

we assume the direction to the east (right) positive

initial instant. Before the crash

p₀ = mₐ v₀ₐ - m_b v_{ob}

final instant. Right after the crash

p_f = (mₐ + m_b) v

the moment is preserved

p₀ = p_f

mₐ v₀ₐ - m_b v_{ob} = (mₐ + m_b) v

v = $\frac{ m_a \ v_{oa} - m_b \ v_{ob} }{ m_a +m_b}$

we substitute the values

v = $\frac{ 46.875}{82.03} \ v_{oa} - \frac{35.156}{82.03} \ 61.6$

v = 0.559 v₀ₐ - 26.40 (1)

Now as the two vehicles united we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

the total mass is

M = mₐ + m_b

M = 46,875 + 35,156 = 82,031 slug

starting point. Jsto after the crash

K₀ = ½ M v²

final point. When they stop

K_f = 0

The work is

W = - fr x

the negative sign is because the friction forces are always opposite to the displacement

Let's write Newton's second law

Axis y

N-W = 0

N = W

the friction force has the expression

fr = μ N

we substitute

-μ W x = Kf - Ko

-μ W x = 0 - ½ (W / g) v²

v² = 2 μ g x

v = $\sqrt{ 2 \ 0.750 \ 32 \ 17.5}$ Ra (2 0.750 32 17.5

v = 28.98 ft / s
