Answer:

Explanation:

Assume that a single baby cries at X db

4 babies crying would be X + 10log₁₀(4) = X + 6 db

Assuming a vertical trajectory with no drag, derive the applicable form of the rocket equation for this application

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The vertical trajectory is governed by Ordinary Differential Equation.

Time derivatives of each state variables.

d(d)/dt = v, d(m)/dt = -d(m-fuel)/dt, d(v)/dt = F/m.

Where V is velocity positive upwards, t is time, m is mass, m-fuel is fuel mass, F is Total force, positive upwards.

Therefore,

F = -mg - D + T, If V is positive and

F = -mg + D - T, If T is negative.

D is drag and the questions gave it as zero.

Explanation:

The two sign cases in derivative equations above are required because F is defined positive up, so the drag D and thrust T can subtract or add to F depending in the sign of V . In contrast, the gravity force contribution mg is always negative. In general, F will be some function of time, and may also depend on the characteristics of the particular rocket. For example, the T component of F will become zero after all the fuel is expended, after which point the rocket will be ballistic, with only the gravity force and the aerodynamic drag force being p

When a 5 kg rock is dropped from a height of 6 m on Planet X, it loses 24 J of GPE. What is the acceleration due to gravity on P

yan [13]

Answer:

g = 1.25m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 6m

Gravitational potential energy = 24J

To find the acceleration due to gravity;

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

$P.E = mgh$

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

GPE = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

24 = 5*6*g

24 = 30g

g = 30/24

g = 1.25m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X is 1.25m/s².

How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system

tatiyna

The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.
