A driver is texting without seeing the traffic ahead and crashes into a stationary vehicle. Explain what happens to the kinetic energy. Answer in 4-6 sentences.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

By Principle of Energy Conservation, the car in motion have an entire inelastic collision with the stationary vehicle, meaning that a part of the energy is dissipated due to inelastic deformation in both cars and resulting kinetic energy is lower, then the remaining kinetic energy is dissipated gradually due to friction between tires and ground by Work-Energy Theorem.

The wavelength of radio waves sent out by an AM station is 600 meters (v = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s). At what frequency is the radio station broadcasting?

Answers

Answer:

500,000 hertz

Explanation:

Wavelength= 600 meters

Velocity(b) = 3 × 10^8

Frequency=?

Therefore the frequency can be calculated as follows

Velocity= frequency × wavelength

Frequency= 3 × 10^8/600

= 500,000 hertz

Hence the frequency is 500,000 hertz

How much work is done by 15 kW engine during 3.5 min? Explain the answer if you can plz

Answers

Answer:

W = 3.15 · 10⁶ J  

Explanation:

We know that power is calculated using the formula:

P = W/twhere P = power (W), W = work (J), and t = time (s)  

We can derive a formula for work using this formula by multiplying t to both sides of the equation.

W = Pt

Let's convert 15 kW to W.

15 kW → 15,000 W

Let's convert 3.5 min to s.

3.5 min → 210 s

Substitute these values into the formula for work and solve for W.

W = Pt W = (15,000 W) · (210 s) W = 3,150,000 J  W = 3.15 · 10⁶ J  

This is the amount of work done by a 15 kW engine in 3.5 minutes.

A student sets up a standing wave of wavelength 6 meters in a coiled spring by moving his hand up and down twice each second. What is the velocity of the wave?

Answers

Answer:

Velocity = 12 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Wavelength = 6 meters

Period = 0.5 seconds. This is due to the fact that the student is moving his hand up and down twice each second.

To find the velocity;

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

But, frequency = 1/period

Frequency = 1/0.5

Frequency = 2

Substituting the values into the velocity formula, we have;

Velocity = 6 * 2

Velocity = 12 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the wave is 12 meters per seconds.

Radio waves have a longer wavelength than microwaves. What else is true
about radio waves?

Answers


As it was explained in the Introductory Article on the Electromagnetic Spectrum, electromagnetic radiation can be described as a stream of photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern, carrying energy and moving at the speed of light. In that section, it was pointed out that the only difference between radio waves, visible light and gamma rays is the energy of the photons. Radio waves have photons with the lowest energies. Microwaves have a little more energy than radio waves. Infrared has still more, followed by visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

A baseball is traveling (+30m/s) and is hit by a bat. It leaves the bat traveling (−40m/s). What is the change in its velocity?
Unlike some others, this is any choice, so not just 4 choices!

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The change must be 30 - - 40 which means it came in a 30 meters / second and went out in the opposite direction at 40 meters / second

The change is 70 m/sec.

You could show it to be - 70 meters per second as well. That's done by making the outgoing direction minus.

Delta v = vf - vi.

Now it depends on which way you define vf and vi.

What is the angular acceleration of the cylindrical pulley?

Answer in units of rad/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex]24.81\ \text{rad/s}^2[/tex]

Explanation:

M = Mass of cylinder = 4.31 kg

R = Radius of cylinder = 0.294 m

m = Mass of bucket = 6.27 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

[tex]\alpha[/tex] = Angular acceleration

a = Acceleration = [tex]\alpha R[/tex]

I = Moment of inertia of cylinder = [tex]\dfrac{MR^2}{2}[/tex]

The force balance of the system is

[tex]mg-T=ma\\\Rightarrow T=m(g-a)[/tex]

For the disk

[tex]TR=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow m(g-a)R=\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2\alpha\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{g}{\dfrac{MR}{2m}+R}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{9.8}{\dfrac{4.31\times 0.294}{2\times 6.27}+0.294}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=24.81\ \text{rad/s}^2[/tex]

The angular acceleration of the pulley is [tex]24.81\ \text{rad/s}^2[/tex].

The surveillance camera on a satellite at 250 km above the earth is taking pictures of the earth surface. Suppose that the imaging wavelength is 550 nm and the diameter of the camera lens is 40 mm. (a) Calculate the angular resolution of the camera. (b) Suppose that the headlights of a car on the earth are 1.6 m apart, can the camera resolve them

Answers

Answer:

a) θ = 1.67 10⁻⁵ m,  b) Consequently we must affirm that the vehicle headlights cannot resolve.

Explanation:

a) To find the resolution of the camera we use the Rayleigh criterion for diffraction

            a sin θ = m λ

where m = 1 for the first zero of the slit

we must remember that the angles in the experiments are measured in radians and are very small

            sin θ = θ

we substitute

             θ = [tex]\frac{\lambda}{a}[/tex]

this expression is for a slit, in the case of circular openings the expression must be solved in polar coordinates giving

             θ = [tex]1.22 \ \frac{\lambda}{D}[/tex]

where D diameters of the opening

             

let's calculate

            θ = [tex]1.22 \ \frac{550 \ 10^{-9}}{ 40\ 10^{-3}}[/tex]

           θ = 1.67 10⁻⁵ m

b) let's use trigonometry to find the separation distance on earth

            tan θ = y / x

            y = x tan θ

let's calculate

               

remember that the angles must be in radians

                y = 250 10³ tan 1.67 10⁻0-5

                y = 4.18 m

as they indicate that the separation of the headlights is y = 1.6m,

we see that this separation is greater than the separation distance separation.

Consequently we must affirm that the vehicle headlights cannot resolve.

At a beach the light is generally partially polarized due to reflections off sand and water. At a particular beach on a particular day near sundown, the horizontal component of the electric field vector is 2.8 times the vertical component. A standing sunbather puts on polarizing sunglasses; the glasses eliminate the horizontal field component. (a) What fraction of the light intensity received before the glasses were put on now reaches the sunbather's eyes

Answers

Answer:

the glasses received 0.1131 of the total intensity

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the intensity is proportional to the electric field amplitude;

now, we assign the electric field of 1 to the vertical component and an electric field of 2.8 to the horizontal component

so;

Horizontal intensity =  1² = 1

Vertical intensity = 2.8² = 7.84

so total intensity = 1 + 7.84 = 8.84

fraction of the light intensity received before the glasses were put on now reaches the sunbather's eyes,

since the sunglasses blocks the horizontal intensity so only the the vertical intensity goes through;

hence

⇒ 1 / 8.84 = 0.1131 of the total intensity

Therefore, the glasses received 0.1131 of the total intensity

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water.

If the total vertical distance traveled by the boat were 0.500 , but the other data remained the same, what is the amplitude of each wave?

Answers

Answer:

a)  v = 2.9 m / s, b) A = 0.350 m, c)    v = 2.9 m / s, d)   A = 1.00 m

Explanation:

The oscillatory motion is described by the expression

          x = A cos (wt + Ф)

the wavelength which is the distance for the wave to repeat and the frequency which is the number of times a wave oscillates per unit of time

a) In this part they ask us for the speed of the wave.

Let's use the relationship between speed, wavelength and frequency

          v = λ f

For the wavelength they indicate that the distance between two crest is 6.1 m

        λ / 2 = 6.10

        λ = 12.20 m

They give us the period of the wave is the time it takes to return to the same point, in this case they give half a period

       A / 2 = 2.10

       A = 4.20 me

        f = 1 / t

        f = ¼, 2

        f = 0.238 Hz

let's calculate

         v = 12.20 0.238

         v = 2.9 m / s

b) the amplitude of the wave, is the distance from zero to some maximum

                 2A = 0.700

                   A = 0.350 m

c) the speed of the wave is not function of the amplitude, so the speed is the same

           v = 2.9 m / s

d) the amplitude is

           2A = 0.50

             A = 1.00 m
