A plane flying horizontally above earth’s surface at 100. meters per second drops a crate. the crate strikes the ground 30.0 sec

onds later. what is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the crate’s velocity just before it strikes the ground? [neglect friction.]

Since the plane is traveling at 100m/s horizontal to the surface of the earth, the crate will always have this horizontal velocity (neglecting air resistance) until it hits the ground.  So the answer is 100m/s.  Note the vertical speed continues to change as the crate accelerates downward toward earth (again neglecting air effects)

Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

An air-track cart with mass m1=0.28kg and initial speed v0=0.75m/s collides with and sticks to a second cart that is at rest ini
arsen [322]
Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,

   KE = 0.5mv²

At initial conditions,

  m₁:  KE = 0.5(0.28 kg)(0.75 m/s)² = 0.07875 J

  m₂ : KE = 0.5(0.45 kg)(0 m/s)² = 0 J

Due to the momentum balance,

   m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)(V)

Substituting the known values,

   (0.29 kg)(0.75 m/s) + (0.43 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(V)

   V = 0.2977 m/s

The kinetic energy is,
   KE = (0.5)(0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(0.2977 m/s)²
   KE = 0.03146 J

The difference between the kinetic energies is 0.0473 J.

You are called as an expert witness to analyze the following auto accident: Car B, of mass 2100 kg, was stopped at a red light w
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force of friction at car B ( break was applied by car B ) =μ mg = .65 x  2100 X 9.8  = 13377 N .

work done by friction = 13377 x 7.30 = 97652.1 J

If v be the common velocity of both the cars after collision

kinetic energy of both the cars = 1/2 ( 2100 + 1500 ) x v²

= 1800 v²

so , applying work - energy theory ,

1800 v² = 97652.1

v² = 54.25

v = 7.365 m /s

This is the common velocity of both the cars .

To know the speed of car A , we shall apply law of conservation of momentum  .Let the speed of car A before collision be v₁ .

So , momentum before collision = momentum after collision of both the cars

1500 x v₁ = ( 1500 + 2100 ) x 7.365

v₁ = 17.676 m /s

= 63.63 mph .

( b )

yes Car A was crossing speed limit by a difference of

63.63 - 35 = 28.63 mph.
