Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. A

2. B

Explanation:

Sound are mechanical waves that are highly dependent on matter for their propagation and transmission.

Sound travels faster through solids than it does through either liquids or gases.

Wavelength can be defined as the distance from one peak to the next peak of a waveform. This distance is also equal to the distance from one trough of a wave to another.

Diffraction is a wavelength property that makes it possible for sound to be heard around a bend. Thus, it's a property that causes a change in the direction of a wave as it travels through or around a barrier (obstacle) in its path.

Simply stated, diffraction involves the bending of waves around small obstacles with their dimensions smaller than or approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound wave.

On the other hand, reflection can be defined as a phenomenon which typically involves a change in the direction of a wave (bounces back) as it falls on a surface.

Hence, reflection is the property of sounds which animals such as bats use to detect their paths as they navigate from one point to another. This phenomenon is generally referred to as echolocation and it typically involves the use of reflection (echo) of sound to gain information about the nature and location of surrounding objects.

If a driver makes contact with a steering wheel during a 35 mph crash, she comes to rest in about Δ=15 ms. If, during an identical crash, the driver makes contact with an air bag, she comes to rest in about Δ=110 ms. What is the ratio of the force exerted by the steering wheel to the force exerted by the air bag on the driver?

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of forces is 22 : 3.

Explanation:

Case I:

initial velocity, u = 35 mph

final velocity, v = 0

time, t = 15 ms

Case II:

initial velocity, u = 35 mph

final velocity, v = 0

time, t' = 110 ms

let the mass is m.

According to the Newton's second law, the force is given by the rate of change of momentum.

So

[tex]F =\frac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F'= \frac{m(v-u)}{t'}\\\\So, \frac{F}{F'} =\frac{t'}{t}\\\\\frac{F}{F'}=\frac{110}{15}=22:3[/tex]

Pablo kicked a ball that went 12m/s at 14° from the ground to fly through the goalie's hands. How high did the ball go?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

There are a couple of things we need to clear up before we start the problem. First of all, we are given an angle in the problem along with an initial velocity. BUT this is what I call a "blanket" velocity: it is neither the upwards velocity nor is it the horizontal velocity. In order to find either the upwards velocity or the horizontal velocity we have to use either the sin or the cos function, respectively. Since we are working ONLY in the y-dimension, which is up and down, we use the sin function along with the given velocity to find the upwards velocity of the ball. Secondly, we have to know that the final velocity at the max height of the ball is 0. So here is what we have:

v₀ = 12sin14 so

v₀ = 2.9 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s/s

v = 0 m/s

Δx = ??? m

The equation we need is

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx and filling in:

0 = (2.9)² + 2(-9.8)Δx and

0 = 8.4 - 2.0 × 10¹Δx and

-8.4 = -2.0 × 10¹Δx so, to the correct number of sig dig,

Δx = 170 m

When is the kinetic energy of the ball zero and when is it at its highest? When is its potential energy at its lowest and at its highest? What happens to the kinetic energy and potential energy between point A and point B? (3 points)

Answers

Answer:

if there is only one planet in the universe and the ball is there it will have 0 kinetic energy if the ball is in the very center of that planet only if the planet itself is absolutely motionless. its at its highest if the planet is moving away from the ball at a slightly faster speed forever. Between point A and B both potential energy and kinetic energy are at perfect 0.

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

3. Pulley: a grooved wheel over which a rope can move. It is made up of a wheel and rope which allows force to be multiplied such as in a drawing well.

4. Screw: a double-sided inclined plane. It is held in position and then used to tighten two or more objects together.

5. Wedge: an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. It can be used to split objects into halves.
