4896

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

Marys airplane trip took 5.8 hours for one-half of that time, the airplane flew at a constant speed of 640 miles per hour and fo

Olenka [21]

Distance is speed x time. Half of the trip is 5.8/2 = 2.9hrs.
640 x 2.9 = 1856mi
580 x 2.9 = 1682mi
1856mi+1682mi=3538mi.

You could also calculate her average speed. This is easy since it was divided in two equal time slices. Average Speed = (640+580)/2 = 610mi/hr
Now 610mi/hr x 5.8hrs = 3538mi

A bicyclist is in a 50-km race. She says she had an average velocity of 35.

zlopas [31]

The correct answer to this is (A. Units Only).

It shows that there is a velocity of 35, but the units are missing.

A simple experiment to measure the speed of sound doesn't involve a stopwatch. You can fill up along tube with water and put a t

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this problem you have to know the depth of the column, we say R, this information is important because allows you to compute some harmonic of the tube. With this information you can compute the depth of the colum of air, by taking tino account that the new depth is R-L.

To find the fundamental mode you use:

$f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}$

n: mode of the sound

vs: sound speed

L: length of the column of air in the tube.

A) The fundamental mode id obtained for n=1:

$f_1=\frac{v_s}{4L}$

B) For the 3rd harmonic you have:

$f_3=\frac{3v_s}{4L}$

C) For the 2nd harmonic:

$f_2=\frac{2v_s}{4L}$

Beams of high-speed protons can be produced in "guns" using electric fields to accelerate the protons. A certain gun has an elec

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s

Explanation: Since the electric field is a uniform one and the distance is small, the motion of the electron is of a constant acceleration, hence newton's laws of motion is applicable.

From the question

E=strength of electric field = 214N/c

q=magnitude of an electronic charge = 1.609* 10^-16c

m= mass of an electronic charge = 9.11*10^-31kg

v = velocity of electron.

S= distance covered = 1cm = 0.01m

a = acceleration of electron.

F = ma but F=Eq

Eq = ma.

a = Eq/m

a = 214 * 1.609*10^-16/ 9.11 * 10^-31

a = 344.32 * 10^-16/ 9.11 * 10 ^-31

a = 3. 779* 10^16 m/s²

Before the electron is accelerated, they are always not moving, hence initial velocity (u) = 0.

By using the equation of motion, we have

v² = u² + 2aS

But u = 0

v² = 2aS

v²= 2* 3.779*10^16 * 0.01

v² = 7.558 * 10^14

v = √7.558 * 10^14

v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s.
