Answer: The correct answer is 1,100 km/hour.

Explanation:

Displacement of the plane = 4,400 km

Time taken by the plane = 4.0 hour

Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}=\frac{4,400 km}{4.0 hour}=1,100 km/hour

Since, Velocity is a vector quantity which means it has direction with magnitude. So, the velocity of the plane is 1,100 km /hour west.

Hence, the correct answer is 1,100 km/hour.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Let us consider the case of a bus turning around a corner with a constant velocity, as the bus approaches the corner, the velocity at say point A is Va, and is tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve. Also, the velocity at another point say point B is Vb and is also tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve.<em> </em><em>Although the velocity at point A and the velocity at point B have the same magnitude, their directions are different (velocity is a vector quantity), and hence we have a change in velocity. By definition, an acceleration occurs when we have a change in velocity, so the bus experiences an acceleration at the corner whose direction is away from the center of the corner</em>.

The acceleration is not aligned with the direction of travel because<em> the change in velocity is at a tangent (directed away) to the direction of travel of the bus.</em>

A 450g mass on a spring is oscillating at 1.2Hz. The totalenergy of the oscillation is 0.51J. What is the amplitude.
Volgvan

Answer:

A=0.199

Explanation:

We are given that  

Mass of spring=m=450 g==\frac{450}{1000}=0.45 kg

Where 1 kg=1000 g

Frequency of oscillation=\nu=1.2Hz

Total energy of the oscillation=0.51 J

We have to find the amplitude of oscillations.

Energy of oscillator=E=\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2A^2

Where \omega=2\pi\nu=Angular frequency

A=Amplitude

\pi=\frac{22}{7}

Using the formula

0.51=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.45(2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2A^2

A^2=\frac{2\times 0.51}{0.45\times (2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2}=0.0398

A=\sqrt{0.0398}=0.199

Hence, the amplitude of oscillation=A=0.199

Savatey [412]

km x h = km/h

First trial: 6 x 1 = 6km/h

Second trial: 9 x 2 = 18km/h

6 + 18 = <u>24km/h</u> (Total)

Or

6 + 9 = 15 km

2 + 1 = 3h

15 + 3 = 18

15 x 2 = 30

3 x 2 = 6

30 - 6 = <u>24km/h</u>

An organ pipe is tuned to exactly 384 Hz when the temperature in the room is 20°C. Later, when the air has warmed up to 25°C, th
maksim [4K]

Answer: A. Greater than 384 Hz

Explanation:

The velocity of sound is directly related to the temperature rather it is directly proportional meaning if the temperature decreases the velocity decreases and if temperature increases the velocity increases.

Now, we are given that temperature has risen from 20°C to 25°C meaning it has increases. So it implies that velocity must also increase.

Also, the velocity for organ pipe is directly proportional to its frequency. Now if velocity increases frequency must also increase. In this case, the original frequency is 384 Hz. Now increasing the temperature resulted in increase in velocity and thus increase in frequency.

So option a is correct. i.e. now frequency will be greater than 384 Hz.

Two sinusoidal waves travel along the same string. They have the same wavelength and frequency. Their amplitudes are ym1 = 2.5 m
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

0.5 m

Explanation:

Givens:

ym1 = 2.5 mm

ym2 = 4.5 mm

Ф_1=π / 4

Ф_2=π / 2

We have 2 ways to solve this problem. The first one given that the 2 waves have the frequency then we know that the resultant wave amplitude is

Ym = (ym1 + ym2)cos(Ф_2/2)

By substitution we have  

Ym= (0.025 + 0.045)cos(π/4) = 0.496 m

The second one is it treat them as Phasors where the phase between them is Ф_2=π / 2 Therefore  

Ym^2=(ym1^2+ym2^2)

So we have Ym=√0.025^2+0.045^2

                         = 0.5 m
