A skipper on a boat notices wave crests passing the anchor chain every 6.0 seconds. The skipper estimates the distance between crests at 30.0
m. What is the speed of the water waves?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

given Time Period = 5 Sec

Amplitude = 1m, Wave length = 15 m

using time period = 1/ frequency , Frequency = 1/5 cycles per sec = 0.2 sec = 12 per min

wave speed= Frequency * Wave length

speed = 0.2*15 = 3m/s

A 4kg and 5kg bodies moving on a frictionless horizontal surface at a velocity of ( -6i )m/s and ( +3 )m/s respectively. Collide a head on elastic collision. What is the velocity ( magnitude and direction) of the each body after collision?

Answers

Answer:

4 kg → +4 m/s

5 kg → -5 m/s

Explanation:

The law of conservation of momentum states that:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'left side → velocities before collisionright side → velocities after collision

You'll notice that we have two missing variables: v₁' & v₂'. Assuming this is a perfectly elastic collision, we can use the conservation of kinetic energy to set the initial and final velocities of the individual bodies equal to each other.

v₁ + v₁' = v₂ + v₂'  

Let's substitute all known variables into the first equation.

(4)(-6) + (5)(3) = (4)v₁' + (5)v₂' -24 + 15 = 4v₁' + 5v₂' -9 = 4v₁' + 5v₂'  

Let's substitute the known variables into the second equation.

(-6) + v₁' = (3) + v₂' -9 = -v₁' + v₂' 9 = v₁' - v₂'  

Now we have a system of equations where we can solve for v₁ and v₂.

-9 = 4v₁' + 5v₂' 9 = v₁' - v₂'  

Use the elimination method and multiply the bottom equation by -4.

-9 = 4v₁' + 5v₂' -36 = -4v₁' + 4v₂'

Add the equations together.

-45 = 9v₂'-5 = v₂'

The final velocity of the second body (5 kg) is -5 m/s. Substitute this value into one of the equations in the system to find v₁.  

9 = v₁' - v₂'9 = v₁' - (-5) 9 = v₁' + 5 4 = v₁'

The final velocity of the first body (4 kg) is 4 m/s.

We can verify our answer by making sure that the law of conservation of momentum is followed.

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂' (4)(-6) + (5)(3) = (4)(4) + (5)(-5)-24 + 15 = 16 - 25 -9 = -9

The combined momentum of the bodies before the collision is equal to the combined momentum of the bodies after the collision. [✓]

Cart A with a mass equal to 24 kg is moving to the right at 3.2 m/s. It collides with Cart B that
has a mass of 32 kg and is moving to the left with a velocity of 12.8 m/s. After the collision,
Cart A has a velocity of 2.9 meters per second to the left. What is the speed of the Cart B after
the collision?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

According to the Law of Momentum Conservation, what happens after the collision has to equal what happened before the collision because momentum cannot be created nor destroyed; it has to go somewhere else. Like energy eventually dissipates into heat. The equation for this is:

[tex][m_Av_A+m_Bv_B)]_b=[(m_Av_A+m_Bv_B)]_a[/tex] and filling in our info, calling right positive and left negative:

[(24(3.2) + 32(-12.8)] = [(24(-2.9) + 32(vB)] and

[(77 - 410)] = [(-7.0 × 10¹ + 32vB)] and

-330 = -7.0 × 10¹ + 32vB and

-260 = 32vB so

vB = -8.1 m/s Thus, cart B is moving to the left at a velocity of 8.1 m/s

Determine the small gravitational force F which the copper sphere exerts on the steel sphere. Both spheres are homogeneous, and the value of r is 50 mm. Express your result as a vector.

Answers

Solution :

We know that the volume of sphere is given by :

[tex]$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r ^3$[/tex]

Given r = 50 mm

The density of copper is :

[tex]$\rho_c = 8910 \ kg/m^3$[/tex]

The density of steel is :

[tex]$\rho_s = 7830\ kg/m^3$[/tex]

Therefore, mass of copper is :

[tex]$m_c= V . \rho$[/tex]

[tex]$m_c= \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.05)^3 \times 8910$[/tex]

     = 4.665 kg

     = 4665 g

Similarly, mass of steel is :

[tex]$m_s= V . \rho$[/tex]

[tex]$m_s= \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.025)^3 \times 7830$[/tex]

     = 0.512 kg

     = 512 g

Now the distance between the centers of the particles is by Pythagoras theorem,

[tex]$l^2=(4r)^2+(2r)^2$[/tex]

l = 4.472 x r

 = 4.472 x 50

 = 224 mm

 = 0.224 m

From the law of gravitation,

We know,  [tex]G = 6673 \times 10^{-11} \ m^3 / kg-s^2[/tex]

∴  [tex]$F=G\times \frac{m_c \times m_s}{l^2}$[/tex]

[tex]$F=6.673 \times 10^{-11}\times \frac{4.665 \times 0.512}{(0.224)^2}$[/tex]

[tex]$F = 3.176 \times 10^{-9} \ N$[/tex]

Now,

[tex]$\alpha = \tan^{-1} \left( \frac{2r}{4r}\right)$[/tex]

   =  [tex]$26.56^\circ$[/tex]

Therefore, we can write it in the vector form as

[tex]$\text{F}=F(-i . \cos \alpha - j. \sin \alpha)$[/tex]

[tex]$\text{F}=3.176 \times 10^{-9}(-i . \cos 26.56 - j. \sin 26.56)$[/tex]

[tex]$\text{F}=(-2.840\ i- 1.420 \ j) \times 10^{-9} \ N$[/tex]

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Natural selection is the process that took place in the lake. Only those trouts that were fit to survive, or those that have alleles that allow them adapt to new conditions, live and multiply in the presence of an external environmental effect like pollution. In such a circumstance, the fittest organisms would have survived, and the population's allelic frequency would have grown through time. Due to pollution, creatures harboring the other alleles died, causing the total frequency of alleles to alter.

Therefore, the correct option is C) III. That is, the trout will suffer from disease.

A solid cylinder has a mass of 5 kg and radius of 2 m and is fixed so that it is able to rotate freely around its center without friction. A 0.02 kg bullet is moving from right to left with an angular momentum of 9 kgm2s just before it strikes the cylinder near its bottom and gets stuck at the outer radius. What is the angular velocity (magnitude and direction) of the cylinder bullet system after the impact

Answers

Answer:

0.893 rad/s in the clockwise direction

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of angular momentum,

angular momentum before impact = angular momentum after impact

L₁ = L₂

L₁ = angular momentum of bullet = + 9 kgm²/s (it is positive since the bullet tends to rotate in a clockwise direction from left to right)

L₂ = angular momentum of cylinder and angular momentum of bullet after collision.

L₂ = (I₁ + I₂)ω where I₁ = rotational inertia of cylinder = 1/2MR² where M = mass of cylinder = 5 kg and R = radius of cylinder = 2 m, I₂ = rotational inertia of bullet about axis of cylinder after collision = mR² where m = mass of bullet = 0.02 kg and R = radius of cylinder = 2m and ω = angular velocity of system after collision

So,

L₁ = L₂

L₁ = (I₁ + I₂)ω

ω = L₁/(I₁ + I₂)

ω = L₁/(1/2MR² + mR²)

ω = L₁/(1/2M + m)R²

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ω = L₁/(1/2M + m)R²

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(1/2 × 5 kg + 0.02 kg)(2 m)²

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(2.5 kg + 0.02 kg)(4 m²)

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(2.52 kg)(4 m²)

ω = +9 kgm²/s/10.08 kgm²

ω = + 0.893 rad/s

The angular velocity of the cylinder bullet system is 0.893 rad/s in the clockwise direction-since it is positive.

Whenever an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force o the same amount, but in the ______ direction to that of the first object. (Fill in the blank)

Answers

Answer:

Opposite

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move etc,

For example, while driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a car (Action) and makes a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver (Reaction) i.e the firefly hit the car and the car hits the firefly.

The ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of equal but opposite forces acting on the two interacting physical objects.

Hence, whenever any physical object exerts a force (action) on another physical object, the second physical object exerts a force (reaction) of the same amount, but acting in opposite direction to that of the first physical object.

In the fastest measured tennis serve, the ball left the racquet at 73.14 m/s . A served tennis ball is typically in contact with the racquet for 32.0 ms and starts from rest. The direction of the velocity of the ball just after it left the racquet is the positive x direction. Assume constant acceleration. Part A What was the x component of the ball's acceleration during this serve

Answers

Answer:

2.286 km/s²

Explanation:

Since acceleration a = (v - u)/t where u = initial horizontal velocity of ball = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest), v = final horizontal velocity of ball at serve = 73.14 m/s and t = time taken for serve = 32.0 ms = 0.032 s

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = (v - u)/t

a = (73.14 m/s - 0 m/s)/0.032 s

a = 73.14 m/s/0.032 s

a =  2285.625 m/s²

a = 2.285625 km/s²

a ≅ 2.286 km/s²

So, the x - component of the ball's acceleration during the serve is 2.286 km/s²
