A boy flies a kite with the string at a 30∘ angle to the horizontal. The tension in the string is 4.5 N. Part A Part complete Ho
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Work done is zero

Explanation:

given data

Angle of kite with horizontal =  30 degree

tension in the string =  4.5 N

WE KNOW THAT

Work =  force * distance

horizontal force =  Tcos\theta = 4.5*cos30 = 3.89 N

DISTANCE = 0 as boy stands still. therefore

work done = 3.89 *0 = 0

The complexity and variety of organic molecules is due to
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Due to the chemical versatility of carbon atoms

Explanation:

Carbon is a very important element and it is commonly found in many varieties of chemical compounds. They are also found to be present in space in various amount. It is often considered to be versatile because they are capable of forming single, double, as well as triple bonds. This enables them to make single and branched chains. They also form ring chains when combined with other atoms of carbon.

It is because of this versatility of carbon atoms, there forms complex variety of organic molecules.

A radar station sends out a 250000 Hz sound wave at a speed of 340 m/s. The sound wave bounces off a weather ballon and returns
Eddi Din [679]

Answers:

a)The balloon is 68 m away of the radar station

b) The direction of the balloon is towards the radar station

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the Doppler shift equation:

f'=\frac{V+V_{o}}{V-V_{s}} f  (1)

Where:

f=250,000 Hz is the actual frequency of the sound wave

f'=240,000 Hz is the "observed" frequency

V=340 m/s is the velocity of sound

V_{o}=0 m/s is the velocity of the observer, which is stationary

V_{s} is the velocity of the source, which is the balloon

Isolating V_{s}:

V_{s}=\frac{V(f'-f)}{f'}  (2)

V_{s}=\frac{340 m/s(240,000 Hz-250,000 Hz)}{240,000 Hz}  (3)

V_{s}=-14.16 m/s (4) This is the velocity of the balloon, note the negative sign indicates the direction of motion of the balloon: It is moving towards the radar station.

Now that we have the velocity of the balloon (hence its speed, the positive value) and the time (t=4.8 s) given as data, we can find the distance:

d=V_{s}t (5)

d=(14.16 m/s)(4.8 s) (6)

Finally:

d=68 m (8) This is the distance of the balloon from the radar station

in a car moving at constant acceleration, you travel 230 mm between the instants at which the speedometer reads 40 km/hkm/h and
Ronch [10]

The acceleration of the car is 0.8049m/s^{2}.It takes 13.802s to travel the 230 m.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

In mechanics, acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time varies. Acceleration is a vector quantity (in that they have magnitude and direction). The direction of an object's acceleration is determined by the direction of the net force acting on it. Newton's Second Law states that the combined effect of two factors determines how much an item accelerates: 

(i) It follows that  the magnitude of the net balance of all external forces acting on the object is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resulting force, and

(ii) the mass of the thing, depending on the materials out of which it is constructed, is inversely proportional to the mass of the thing.

Calculations:

40 km/hr ----- 11.11m/s

80 km/hr ----- 22.22m/s

v^{2} -u^{2} =2as\\22.22^{2} - 11.11^{2} = 2 x a x 230\\ 370.296=460a\\ a= 0.8049m/s^{2} \\

Time taken

v-u=at

22.22-11.11= 0.8049 x t

t=13.802s
