2. A tower is 15.24 m high. At a certain distance away from the tower, an observer
determines that the angle of elevation to the top of it is 41°. How far is the observer
from the base of the tower?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Opposite side from the 41° angle = 15.24m

We wish to find the adjacent side (horizontal length)

Therefore 15.24m / tan41° = 17.53m.

A. 350 m/s
B. 9,800 m/s
C. 450 m/s
D. 13 m/s

Answers

Answer:

C. 450

it should be right

The new speed of sound wave is 450 m/s. Hence, option (C) is correct.

What is sound wave?

A sound wave is the pattern of disruption brought on by the movement of energy moving through a medium as it propagates away from the source of the sound (such as air, water, or any other liquid or solid matter).

Pressure waves are produced when an object vibrates, such as a ringing phone, and these waves are known as sound waves.

Frequency of sound wave is = 16 Hz.

Wavelength of the sound wave is = 28 m.

Hence, new speed of sound wave is = 16 × 28 meter/second

= 448 meter/second

=450 meter/second. (approx.)

Explain how the law of conservation of energy applied to the energy transformations that occur from the outlet charger to the ringing phone

Answers

Answer: ELECTRICAL ENERGY to CHEMICAL ENERGY to SOUND ENERGY.

Explanation:

There are laws governing the conservation of energy in physics. The first law of thermodynamics states that in a closed system, energy can neither be created nor destroyed during transformation. With this, the total energy of a given system always remains constant.

This first law of thermodynamics which arouse from special relativity, says that changes in the energy of systems will also coincide with changes in a measure of its energy content.

The ELECTRICAL energy from the outlet charger is transformed and stored as CHEMICAL energy in the battery of the phone. This in turn is converted to SOUND energy when the phone rings.

A bungee jumper starts with 1000 J in their GPE store. After they jump they fall and are brought to a stop with the bungee cord. With the cord fully stretched what is the energy in the EPE store?

Answers

Answer:

energy is equal to 1000 J

Explanation:

When the jumper is in the tent, he has a given height, this height gives him a gravitational potential energy, which forms his initial mechanical energy of 1000 J. After jumping, this energy is converted into elastic energy of the rope plus a remainder of potential energy gravitational, it does not reach the ground, but as the friction is negligible the total mechanical energy is conserved, therefore its energy is equal to 1000 J

This is a case of energy transformation, but the total value of mechanical energy does not change

Answers

Correct question is;

A thermal tap used in a certain apparatus consists of a silica rod which fits tightly inside an aluminium tube whose internal diameter is 8mm at 0°C.When the temperature is raised ,the fits is no longer exact. Calculate what change in temperature is necessary to produce a channel whose cross-sectional is equal to that of the tube of 1mm. (linear expansivity of silica = 8 × 10^(-6) /K and linear expansivity of aluminium = 26 × 10^(-6) /K).

Answer:

ΔT = 268.67K

Explanation:

We are given;

d1 = 8mm

d2 = 1mm

At standard temperature and pressure conditions, the temperature is 273K.

Thus; Initial temperature; T1 = 273K,

Using the combined gas law, we have;

P1×V1/T1 = P2×V2/T2

The pressure is constant and so P1 = P2. They will cancel out in the combined gas law to give:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Now, volume of the tube is given by the formula;V = Area × height = Ah

Thus;

V1 = (πd1²/4)h

V2 = (π(d2)²/4)h

Thus;

(πd1²/4)h/T1 = (π(d2)²/4)h/T2

π, h and 4 will cancel out to give;

d1²/T1 = (d2)²/T2

T2 = ((d2)² × T1)/d1²

T2 = (1² × T1)/8²

T2 = 273/64

T2 = 4.23K

Therefore, Change in temperature is; ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 273 - 4.23

ΔT = 268.67K

Thus, the temperature decreased to 268.67K

An object is spun around in circular motion such that its frequency is 12 Hz.
a. What is the period of its rotation?
b. How much time will be required to complete 86 rotations?

Answers

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency  = 12Hz

Unknown:

a. Period of its rotation

b. Time required to complete 86 rotations

Solution:

Frequency is the number of times of rotation per unit of time.

  Frequency  = [tex]\frac{n}{t}[/tex]  

Period is the opposite of frequency;

          Period = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]   = 0.083s

b. Time for 86 rotations;

          Since frequency  = [tex]\frac{n}{t}[/tex]  

n is the number of rotation

t is the time

             t  = [tex]\frac{n}{Frequency}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{86}{12}[/tex]   = 7.2s

The period of rotation is 1/12 seconds and it takes 7.17 seconds to complete 86 rotations.

Time period (T) in a rotational or periodic motion is defined as the time taken to complete one rotation and frequency (f) is the reciprocal of time period.

                         f = 1/T   ⇒  T = 1/f  , given  that f = 12 Hz

                          T = 1/12 s is the time period of ne rotation

Now if time takes to complete one rotation is 1/12s , then to complete 86 rotation, the time required is

                               t = 86×(1/12) = 7.17 seconds is taken to complete 86 rotations.

Sam is moving house and is carrying a 300N box of books up a flight of steps 5m high, it takes her 30 seconds. Gary follows her carrying a bag of clothes doing 1000 J of work; it only takes him 25 seconds. Who provides the biggest power? Show your working.

Answers

Answer: Sam provides the biggest power

Explanation: Power is defined, in Physics, as the rate of work done. Work is energy transferred to an object due to the force causing the displacement of the object.

So, to determine Power:

For Sam:

P = [tex]\frac{work}{time}[/tex]

[tex]P=\frac{F.d}{t}[/tex]

[tex]P=\frac{300.5}{30}[/tex]

P = 50 Watts

The unit for Power is [P] = J/s = Watt

For Gary:

P = [tex]\frac{work}{time}[/tex]

[tex]P=\frac{1000}{25}[/tex]

P = 40 Watts

Comparing power of Sam and Gary, we can conclude that Sam provides the biggest power of 50 Watts.

What is impulse?

The product of the average applied force and the time for which it is exerted is known as an impulse.

the mathematical relation for impulse is

Impulse  = F * Δt

where F represents the force applied and Δt represents the time for which the force is applied

Thus, the correct equation that can be used to calculate the force applied to an object is F = I /Δt and the correct option is D.

A horizontal net force is exerted on a 2.0 kg object at rest. The object starts at x=0 m and travels 8.0 m along a horizontal frictionless surface.
What is the velocity of the object
Round answer to 2 significant digits
____ m/s

Answers

There's a constant force of 35 N exerted on the object of mass 2.0 kg, so it undergoes an acceleration a of

35 N = (2.0 kg) a   →   a = 17.5 m/s²

The object travels 8.0 m, so that it attains a velocity v of

v ² = 2 (17.5 m/s²) (8.0 m)   →   v ≈ 16.73 m/s ≈ 17 m/s

The velocity of the 2 Kg object which travels 8 m along the horizontal frictionless surface is 17 m/s

How to determine the acceleration Force (F) = 35 NMass (m) = 2 KgAcceleration (a) =?

a = F / m

a = 35 / 2

a = 17.5 m/s²

How to determine the velocity Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/sDistance (s) = 8 mAcceleration (a) = 17.5 m/s²Final velocity (v) =?

v² = u² + 2as

Explanation:

A protective apron or lab coat is important when working with acids because acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution. A strong acid ionizes completely in solution. When they come in contact with a fabric, they break them down violently. So, if they come in contact with the skin, it causes a violent break down of body tissues. The apron acts a protective layer.
