Answer: The change in velocity is 20mph
Explanation: The change in velocity is the difference between the final velocity and the initial velocity.
The initial velocity is 0 and the final velocity is 20mph.
Using the formula dV=Vf-Vi
dV=20-0
dV=20mph North
Acceleration = force / mass = 20 / 2 = 10 m/s^2
Answer:
8. 2.75·10^-4 s^-1
9. No, too much of the carbon-14 would have decayed for radiation to be detected.
Explanation:
8. The half-life of 42 minutes is 2520 seconds, so you have ...
1/2 = e^(-λt) = e^(-(2520 s)λ)
ln(1/2) = -(2520 s)λ
-ln(1/2)/(2520 s) = λ ≈ 2.75×10^-4 s^-1
___
9. Reference material on carbon-14 dating suggests the method is not useful for time periods greater than about 50,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is about 5730 years, so at 65 million years, about ...
6.5·10^7/5.73·10^3 ≈ 11344
half-lives will have passed. Whatever carbon 14 may have existed at the time will have decayed completely to nothing after that many half-lives.
Answer:
202.8m
Explanation:
Given that A pirate fires his cannon parallel to the water but 3.5 m above the water. The cannonball leaves the cannon with a velocity of 120 m/s. He misses his target and the cannonball splashes into the briny deep.
First calculate the total time travelled by using the second equation of motion
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
Let assume that u = 0
And h = 3.5
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
3.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2
3.5 = 4.9t^2
t^2 = 3.5/4.9
t^2 = 0.7
t = 0.845s
To know how far the cannonball travel, let's use the equation
S = UT + 1/2at^2
But acceleration a = 0
T = 2t
T = 1.69s
S = 120 × 1.69
S = 202.834 m
Therefore, the distance travelled by the cannon ball is approximately 202.8m.
Answer:33
Explanation:
F = frequency
N = Node count
w = wave lenght
v = wave velocity
L = distance wave traveled
First find wave length of laser
w = (2/(N))*(L)
w = (2/(10))*(8)
w = 1.6
then using (w), find velocity
V = (w)(F)
V = (1.6)*(108)
V = 288
Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count
F = NV/2L
(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)
(N) = 33.33
there are 33 nodes
