Answer:

F_A =5.625*10^1^6N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

50,000 years ago,

A giant 4.5 107-kg meteor

180-m-deep hole

20,000 m/s

Generally for this problem the energy change is given as

\triangle E=\frac{1}{2} mv^2 +mgd△E=

+mgd

Having the potential and kinetic energy in place

Mathematically solving for Average forceF_AF

\triangle E=F_a*d△E=F

∗d

F_A =\frac{1/2* 4.5*10^7(20,000)^2-kg+4.5*10^7*9.81*160}{160}F

160

1/2∗4.5∗10

(20,000)

−kg+4.5∗10

∗9.81∗160

Therefore Average force F_AF

is given by

F_A =5.625*10^1^6N

An electric fan has the power output of 60W. How much work is done if the fan operates for 120s?

Digiron [165]

Since power = work done/time, 60= work done/120, work done = 120*60 = 7200. So,work done = 7200N (Newton).
I'm not sure if you're supposed to convert the seconds to time.

When you observe a distant galaxy whose photons have traveled for 10 billion years before reaching earth we are seeing that gal?

expeople1 [14]

In reality we don't see the galaxy we see it's reflection .. the light hits or got emitted by the star travel all the way long to hit our eyes .. we see their reflection . everything around you that you see is it's reflection

Two traveling sinusoidal waves are described by the wave functions y1 = 4.85 sin [(4.35x − 1270t)] y2 = 4.85 sin [(4.35x − 1270t

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Approximately $9.62$ .

Explanation:

$y_1 = 4.85\, \sin[(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + 0]$ .

$y_2 = 4.85\, \sin[(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + (-0.250)]$ .

Notice that sine waves $y_1$ and $y_2$ share the same frequency and wavelength. The only distinction between these two waves is the $(-0.250)$ in $y_2\!$ .

Therefore, the sum $(y_1 + y_2)$ would still be a sine wave. The amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2)\!$ could be found without using calculus.

Consider the sum-of-angle identity for sine:

$\sin(a + b) = \sin(a) \cdot \cos(b) + \cos(a) \cdot \sin(b)$ .

Compare the expression $\sin(a + b)$ to $y_2$ . Let $a = (4.35\, x - 1270)$ and $b = (-0.250)$ . Apply the sum-of-angle identity of sine to rewrite $y_2\!$ .

$\begin{aligned}y_2 &= 4.85\, \sin[(\underbrace{4.35\, x - 1270\, t}_{a}) + (\underbrace{-0.250}_{b})]\\ &= 4.85 \, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(-0.250) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore, the sum $(y_1 + y_2)$ would become:

$\begin{aligned}& y_1 + y_2\\[0.5em] &= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t) \\ &\quad \quad \quad\;+\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(-0.250) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \\[0.5em] &= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Consider: would it be possible to find $m$ and $c$ that satisfy the following hypothetical equation?

$\begin{aligned}& (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\&= 4.85\, [\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad\quad\; + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)] \end{aligned}$ .

Simplify this hypothetical equation:

$\begin{aligned}& m\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\&=\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (1 + \cos(-0.250)) \\ &\quad\quad + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(-0.250)\end{aligned}$ .

Apply the sum-of-angle identity of sine to rewrite the left-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}& m\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)\\[0.5em]&=m\, \sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \cos(c) \\ &\quad\quad + m\, \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot \sin(c) \\[0.5em] &=\sin(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (m\, \cos(c)) \\ &\quad\quad + \cos(4.35\, x - 1270\, t)\cdot (m\, \sin(c)) \end{aligned}$ .

Compare this expression with the right-hand side. For this hypothetical equation to hold for all real $x$ and $t$ , the following should be satisfied:

$\displaystyle 1 + \cos(-0.250) = m\, \cos(c)$ , and

$\displaystyle \sin(-0.250) = m\, \sin(c)$ .

Consider the Pythagorean identity. For any real number $a$ :

${\left(\sin(a)\right)}^{2} + {\left(\cos(a)\right)}^{2} = 1^2$ .

Make use of the Pythagorean identity to solve this system of equations for $m$ . Square both sides of both equations:

$\displaystyle 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + {\left(\cos(-0.250)\right)}^2= m^2\, {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2$ .

$\displaystyle {\left(\sin(-0.250)\right)}^{2} = m^2\, {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2$ .

Take the sum of these two equations.

Left-hand side:

$\begin{aligned}& 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + \underbrace{{\left(\cos(-0.250)\right)}^2 + {\left(\sin(-0.250)\right)}^2}_{1}\\ &= 1 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) + 1 \\ &= 2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250) \end{aligned}$ .

Right-hand side:

$\begin{aligned} &m^2\, {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2 + m^2\, {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2 \\ &= m^2\, \left( {\left(\sin(c)\right)}^2 + {\left(\cos(c)\right)}^2\right)\\ &= m^2\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$m^2 = 2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)$ .

$m = \sqrt{2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)} \approx 1.98$ .

Substitute $m = \sqrt{2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)}$ back to the system to find $c$ . However, notice that the exact value of $c\!$ isn't required for finding the amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2) = (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)$ .

(Side note: one possible value of $c$ is $\displaystyle \arccos\left(\frac{1 + \cos(0.250)}{\sqrt{2 \times (1 + \cos(0.250))}}\right) \approx 0.125$ radians.)

As long as $\! c$ is a real number, the amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2) = (4.85\, m)\cdot \sin((4.35\, x - 1270\, t) + c)$ would be equal to the absolute value of $(4.85\, m)$ .

Therefore, the amplitude of $(y_1 + y_2)$ would be:

$\begin{aligned}|4.85\, m| &= 4.85 \times \sqrt{2 + 2\, \cos(-0.250)} \\&\approx 9.62 \end{aligned}$ .
