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

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.

dangina [55]

According to Einstein's special theory of relativity, the speed of the light in a vacuum is the same no matter the speed with which an observer travels. So the answer should be A) 0,1c (1/10 the speed of light)

All forces on the bullets cancel so that the net force on a bullet is zero, which means the bullet has zero acceleration and is
andre [41]
The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
So, if the acceleration is zero, this means that the rate of change of velocity is zero, which also means that the body is moving with constant velocity.
Since we are given that the net forces acting on the body is zero, this means that the body is at equilibrium

Based on this:
<span>All forces on the bullets cancel so that the net force on a bullet is zero, which means the bullet has zero acceleration and is in a state known as equilibrium.

Note that if this constant velocity is equal to zero, then the body would be at rest (not moving)</span>

At time t=0 , a cart is at x=10 m and has a velocity of 3 m/s in the −x -direction. The cart has a constant acceleration in the
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Explanation:

The minimum magnitude of acceleration = 3 m /s²

displacement at t = 1

s = ut + 1 /2 at²

= -3 x 1 + .5 x 3 x 1²

= - 3 + 1.5

= - 1.5 m

position at t = 1 s

= 10 - 1.5

= 8.5 m

The maximum  magnitude of acceleration = 6 m /s²

displacement at t = 1

s = ut + 1 /2 at²

= -3 x 1 + .5 x 6 x 1²

= - 3 + 3

=  0

position at t = 1 s

= 10 +0

= 10  m

So range of position is 8.5 m to 10 m .

While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

A child is sliding a toy block (with mass = m) down a ramp. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the ramp is
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

F=mg(sin(\theta )-0.25 cos(\theta ))

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the block on the slide is shown in the below figure

Since the block is in equilibrium we apply equations of statics to compute the necessary unknown forces

N is the reaction force between the block and the slide

For equilibrium along x-axis we have

\sum F_{x}=0\\\\mgsin(\theta )-\mu N-F=0\\\therefore F=mgsin(\theta)-\mu N......(\alpha )\\Similarly\\\sum F_{y}=0\\\\N-mgcos(\theta )=0\\\therefore N=mgcos(\theta ).......(\beta )\\\\

Using value of N from equation β in α we get value of force as

F=mg(sin(\theta )-\mu cos(\theta ))

Applying values we get

F=mg(sin(\theta )-0.25 cos(\theta ))
