What are the properties of sound waves and how do they affect the sound?

Marina86 [1]

The more sound waves a sound produces, the higher the pitch. Meaning if a sound has a high frequency, it will produce a high-pitched, shrill sound, while sounds with a lower frequency produce lower, deeper sounds, like bass sounds. ( i hope this helps)

A crane raises a crate with a mass of 150 kg to a height of 20 m. Given that

Virty [35]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}$

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

$E_P= m \times g \times h$

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

m= 150 kg
g= 9.8 m/s²
h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

$E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m$

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

$E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m$

$E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2$

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

$E_p= 29,400 \ J$

The crate has 29,400 Joules of potential energy.

After being struck by a bowling ball, a 1.8 kg bowling pin sliding to the right at 5.0 m/s collides head-on with another 1.8 kg

kaheart [24]

Answer:

a) v₂ = 4.2 m/s

b) v₂ = 5 m/s

Explanation:

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0.8 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

$(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0.8\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)\\v_2 = 5\ m/s - 0.8\ m/s$

v₂ = 4.2 m/s

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

$(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)$

v₂ = 5 m/s
