How does speed measure​

Physics
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.

A basketball center holds a basketball straight out, 2.0 m above the floor, and releases it. It bounces off the floor and rises
atroni [7]

Answer:

a) The velocity of the ball before it hits the floor is -6.3 m/s

b) The velocity of the ball after it hits the floor is 3.1 m/s

c) The magnitude of the average acceleration is 470 m/s². The direction is upward at an angle of 90º with the ground.

Explanation:

First, let´s calcualte how much time it takes the ball to hit the floor:

The equation for the position of the ball is:

y = y0 + v0 * t + 1/2 g * t²

Where:

y = position at time t

y0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity

We take the ground as the origin of the reference system.

a) Since the ball is realesed and not thrown, the initial velocity v0 is 0. The direction of the acceleration is downward, towards the origin, then "g" will be negative. When the ball hits the ground its position will be 0. Then:

0 = 2.0 m + 0 m/s *t - 1/2 * 9.8 m/s²  * t²

-2.0 m = -4.9 m/s²  * t²

t² = -2.0 m / - 4.9 m/s²

t = 0.64 s

The equation for the velocity of a falling object is:

v = v0 + g * t      where "v" is the velocity

since v0= 0:

v = g * t = -9.8 m/s² * 0.64 s = -6.3 m/s

b) Now, we know that the velocity of the ball when it reaches the max height must be 0. We can obtain the time it takes the ball to reach that height from the equation for velocity and then use that time in the equation for position to obtain the initial velocity:

v = v0 + g * t

0 = v0 + g * t

-v0/g = t

now we replace t in the equation for position, since we know that the maximum height is 1.5 m:

y = y0 + v0 * t + 1/2* g * t²           y = 1.5 m       y0 = 0 m   t = -v0/g

1.5 m = v0 * (-v0/g) + 1/2 * g (-v0/g)²

1.5 m = - v0²/g - 1/2 * v0²/g

1.5 m = -3/2 v0²/g

1.5 m * (-2/3) * g = v0²

1.5 m * (-2/3) * (-9.8 m/s²) = v0²

v0 = 3.1 m/s

c) The average acceleration will be:

a = final velocity - initial velocity / time

a = 3.1 m/s - (-6.3 m/s) / 0.02 s = 470 m/s²

the direction of the acceleration is upward perpendicular to the ground.

The vector average acceleration will be:

a = (0, 470 m/s²) or (470 m/s² * cos 90º, 470 m/s² * sin 90º)

What are the two sources of earth's internal heat energy
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Hey

Your answer would be Radioactive Decay and Heat of formation.

When earth first formed it was very violant. Some planetary scientists believe that the moon was created from a collision involving earth and Thea (a theoretical dwarf planet). these collisions that have formed earth heated it so much that it is still hot from them.

Radioactivce decay is another major fource of internal heat for earth.

A tank with a volume of 0.150 m3 contains 27.0oC helium gas at a pressure of 100 atm. How many balloons can be blown up if each
jekas [21]

Answer:

884 balloons

Explanation:

Assume ideal gas, since temperature is constant, then the product of pressure and volume is constant.

So if pressures reduces from 100 to 1.2, the new volume would be

V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} = \frac{100*0.15}{1.2} = 12.5 m^2

The spherical volume of each of the balloon of 30cm diameter (15 cm or 0.15 m in radius) is

V_b = \frac{4}{3}\pir^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi 0.15^3 = 0.014 m^3

The number of balloons that 12.5 m3 can fill in is

V_2/V_b = 12.5 / 0.014 = 884

What are two advantages of using renewable resources?
Pavel [41]
One advantage is that whatever resource it is, it will never run out and you wont have to worry about not having it. A second is that there is going to be enough for everyone to use however much they want without there having to be a limit on how much you use.

A sound wave leaves the loudspeaker. As it travels, it experiences a temporary increase in wavelength and then returns to its or
Brut [27]

A sound wave leaves the loudspeaker. As it travels, it experiences a temporary increase in wavelength and then returns to its original wavelength.  The sound wave traveled through a helium balloon (helium is less dense than air could explain this change in wavelength

The pattern of disruption brought on by energy moving away from the sound source is known as a sound wave. Longitudinal waves are what makeup sound. This indicates that the direction of energy wave propagation and particle vibrational propagation are parallel. The atoms oscillate when they are put into vibration.

A high-pressure and a low-pressure zone are created in the medium as a result of this constant back and forth action. Compressions and rarefactions, respectively, are terms used to describe these high- and low-pressure zones. The sound waves go from one medium to another as a result of these regions being transmitted to the surrounding media.
