explain why the impact of one heavy stone would produce waves with higher amplitude than the impact of the light stone would

1 answer:

5 0

The heavy stone would produce waves with a higher amplitude, rather than the smaller stone, because since the stone is heaver its going to have a grater impact and displace more water to create a bigger wave.

A child is riding a merry-go-round that has an instantaneous angular speed of 1.25 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 0.745 ra

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

So the acceleration of the child will be $8.05m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given angular speed of the child $\omega =1.25rad/sec$

Radius r = 4.65 m

Angular acceleration $\alpha =0.745rad/sec^2$

We know that linear velocity is given by $v=\omega r=1.25\times 4.65=5.815m/sec$

We know that radial acceleration is given by $a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{5.815^2}{4.65}=7.2718m/sec^2$

Tangential acceleration is given by

$a_t=\alpha r=0.745\times 4.65=3.464m/sec^$

So total acceleration will be $a=\sqrt{7.2718^2+3.464^2}=8.05m/sec^2$

In certain cases, using both the momentum principle and energy principle to analyze a system is useful, as they each can reveal

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

A) F_g = 26284.48 N

B) v = 7404.18 m/s

C) E = 19.19 × 10^(10) J

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of satellite; m = 3500 kg

Mass of the earth; M = 6 x 10²⁴ Kg

Earth circular orbit radius; R = 7.3 x 10⁶ m

A) Formula for the gravitational force is;

F_g = GmM/r²

Where G is gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^(-11) N.m²/kg²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

F_g = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 3500 × 6 x 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶)²

F_g = 26284.48 N

B) From the momentum principle, we have that the gravitational force is equal to the centripetal force.

Thus;

GmM/r² = mv²/r

Making v th subject, we have;

v = √(GM/r)

Plugging in the relevant values;

v = √(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 6 x 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶))

v = 7404.18 m/s

C) From the energy principle, the minimum amount of work is given by;

E = (GmM/r) - ½mv²

Plugging in the relevant values;

E = [(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 3500 × 6 × 10²⁴)/(7.3 x 10⁶)] - (½ × 3500 × 7404.18)

E = 19.19 × 10^(10) J

The air in a pipe resonates at 150 Hz and 750 Hz, one of these resonances being the fundamental. If the pipe is open at both end

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

Two frequencies with magnitude 150 Hz and 750 Hz are given

For Pipe open at both sides

fundamental frequency is 150 Hz as it is smaller

frequency of pipe is given by

$f=\frac{nv}{2L}$

where L=length of Pipe

v=velocity of sound

$f=150\ Hz$ for n=1

and f=750 is for n=5

thus there are three resonance frequencies for n=2,3 and 4

For Pipe closed at one end

frequency is given by

$f=\frac{(2n+1)}{4L}\cdot v$

for n=0

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

$f_1=150\ Hz$

for n=2

$f_2=\frac{5v}{4L}$

Thus there is one additional resonance corresponding to n=1 , between $f_1$ and $f_2$

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(1) An object that’s negatively charged has more electrons than protons.

(2) An object that’s positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.

(3) An object that’s not charged has the same number of electrons than protons.

Explanation :

Objects have three subatomic particles that are Electrons, protons, and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and electrons rotate or move outside the nucleus. Naturally, protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge, and electrons are negatively charged.

Therefore, an object that is negatively charged has more electrons than protons. An object that is not charged has the same number of electrons than protons. An object that is positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.
