Answer:

Given:

m=1000kg

u= 16.7m/s

v=0m/s

F=8000N

Required:

s=?

Solution:

F=m × a

8000N=1000kg × a

a=8m/s^2

Since it decelerate a= -8m/s^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

s=v^2 - u^2 / 2a

s= 0 - (16.7m/s)^2 / 2 × -8m/s^2

s= -278.89/-16

s= 17.43m

The car travels approximately 17.43m before it stops

What’s the power if a student does 2240j of work for 2.8 seconds

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

800 Watts

Explanation:

Power = Work/time

Working in SI units, Power = Watts, Work = Joules, Time = seconds.

Power = 2240J/2.8s = 800 Watts.

Two loudspeakers are 1.60 m apart. A person stands 3.00 m from one speaker and 3.50 m from the other. (a) What is the lowest fre

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance between two loud speakers $d=1.6\ m$

Distance of person from one speaker $x_1=3\ m$

Distance of person from second speaker $x_2=3.5\ m$

Path difference between the waves is given by

$x_2-x_1=(2m+1)\cdot \frac{\lambda }{2}$

for destructive interference m=0 I.e.

$x_2-x_1=\frac{\lambda }{2}$

$3.5-3=\frac{\lambda }{2}$

$\lambda =0.5\times 2$

$\lambda =1\ m$

frequency is given by

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda }$

where $v=velocity\ of\ sound\ (v=343\ m/s)$

$f=\frac{343}{1}=343\ Hz$

For next frequency which will cause destructive interference is

i.e. $m=1$ and $m=2$

$3.5-3=\frac{2\cdot 1+1}{2}\cdot \lambda$

$\lambda =\frac{1}{3}\ m$

frequency corresponding to this is

$f_2=\frac{343}{\frac{1}{3}}=1029\ Hz$

for $m=2$

$3.5-3=\frac{5}{2}\cdot \lambda$

$\lambda =\frac{1}{5}\ m$

Frequency corresponding to this wavelength

$f_3=\frac{343}{\frac{1}{5}}$

$f_3=1715\ Hz$
