Answer:

c. The truck drops off its load of toys, then stops at a second weigh station. Now the truck weighs 33,000 pounds. What is its weight in newtons?

148,500 N

D. Challenge! Find the total mass of the rubber duck filled boxes that were carried by the truck.

4,950kg

Explanation:

First things first, a Newton (N) is \frac{kg*m}{s^{2} } so we need to convert pounds into kilograms.

1 pound is 0.45 kg.

So 33,000 pounds is equal to: 33,000*0.45=14,850kg, this right here is actually mass

Now, weight is mass*gravitational acceleration.

Gravitational acceleration is equal to 9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }, but it's usually rounded up to 10\frac{m}{s^{2} } to simplify calculations so:

C. The truck drops off its load of toys, then stops at a second weigh station. Now the truck weighs 33,000 pounds. What is its weight in newtons?

14,850kg * 10\frac{m}{s^{2} }= 148,500 \frac{kg*m}{s^{2} }= 148,500 N

D. Challenge! Find the total mass of the rubber duck filled boxes that were carried by the truck.

Mass with the load: 44,000 pounds

Mass without the load: 33,000 pounds

Mass of the load = mass with load - mass without = 11,000

Mass of the load in kg = 11,000*0.45=4,950kg

A boy throws a water ballon such that it hits his sister standing 10m away. The boy threw the water balloon at an angle of 35 de
Tresset [83]

Answer: 7.734 m/s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

\theta=35\° The angle at which the water ballon was thrown

x=10 m  The horizontal distance of the water ballon

g=-9.8 m/s^{2} The acceleration due gravity

We need to find the initial velocity V_{o} at which the water ballon was thrown, and we can find it by the following equation:

x=V_{o}cos \theta T (1)

Where T=2t is the total time the water ballon is on air

On the other hand, when we talk about parabolic motion (as in this situation) the water ballon reaches its maximum height just in the middle of this parabola, when V=0 and the time t is half the time T it takes the complete parabolic path.

So, if we use the following equation, we will find t:

V=V_{o}+gt=0 (2)

Isolating t:

t=\frac{-V_{o}}{g} (3)

Remembering T=2t:

T=2\frac{-V_{o}}{g} (4)

Substituting (4) in (1):

x=V_{o}cos \theta (2\frac{-V_{o}}{g}) (5)

Isolating V_{o}:

V_{o}=\sqrt{\frac{x g}{-2 cos \theta}} (6)

V_{o}=\sqrt{\frac{(10 m)(9.8 m/s^{2})}{-2 cos(35\°)}} (7)

Finally:

V_{o}=7.734 m/s

A Hooke's law bowstring is stretched x meters until a force of f newtons is applied, and then held. By what factor will the elas
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The elastic potential energy increases by a factor of 9

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a bowstring is given by

E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 (1)

where

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the bowstring

Hooke's law states the relationship between the force applied and the elongation of an elastic object:

F=kx

where

F is the force applied

x is the elongation

We can rewrite it as

x=\frac{F}{k}

And substituting into (1),

E=\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{F}{k})^2=\frac{F^2}{2k}

In  this problem, the force applied to the bowstring is tripled,

F' = 3F

So the final elastic potential energy is:

E'=\frac{(3F)^2}{2k}=9(\frac{F^2}{2k})=9E

So, the elastic potential energy increases by a factor of 9.

A standing wave of 603 Hz is produced on a string that is 1.33 m long and fixed on both ends. If the speed of the waves on this
kondaur [170]

Answer:

4.

Explanation:

Given,

frequency of standing wave = 603 Hz

length of string,L = 1.33 m

speed of the wave, v = 402 m/s

number of antinodes = ?

Wavelength of the standing wave

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda = \dfrac{402}{603}

\lambda = 0.67\ m

Number of anti nodes in the standing wave

n=\dfrac{l}{\frac{\lambda}{2}}

n=\dfrac{2l}{\lambda}

n=\dfrac{2\times 1.33}{0.67}

n =3.97= 4.

Number of antinodes is equal to 4.

A teacher is demonstrating energy transformation with a basketball. He drops the ball from a fixed height and challenges his stu
Luda [366]

The ball will bounce at a height lower than the height it was dropped.

Answer: Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When a basket ball is thrown from a particular height, it bounces back. But the height it bounces back at is not exactly the same height from where it was thrown.

With further bounces, the energy of the basket ball goes on decreasing and the bounces go on getting smaller. This shows that there is a change in the energy of the basket ball with every bounce that the ball makes. Some energy lost from the ball gets absorbed by the court and some of the energy is changed into thermal energy.
