A Butterfly Is Flying Around And Its Velocity(v) As A Function Of Time(t) Is Given In The Graph Below

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 19 meters.

Explanation:

We want to find the total displacement between t = 2s and t = 4s.

To do it, we can integrate our function, first write our velocity equation.

for t ≤ 3s, we have a linear equation, let's write it:

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*t + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

Now we can see that our line passes through the points (1, 0) and (0, -2)

then the slope is:

a = (0 -(-2)/(1 - 0) = 2/1 = 2

and knowing that when t = 0s, v(0s) = -2m/s, then our equation is:

v(t) = (2m/s^2)*t - 2m/s for t ≤ 3s

now, for t ≥3s the equation is constant, v(t) = 4m/s.

then we have

v(t) = (2m/s^2)*t - 2m/s -------if t ≤ 3s

v(t) = 4m/s ----- if t ≥ 3s

Now we integrate over time to get the position:

for t ≤ 3s we have:

p(t) = (1/2)*(2m/s^2)*t^2 - 2m/s*t + C

where C is a constant of integration, as we are calculating the displacement  this constant actually does not matter, so we can use C = 0m

p(t) = (1m/s^2)*t^2 - 2m/s*t  for t ≤ 3s

and p(3s) =  (1m/s^2)*3s^2 - 2m/s*3s = 9m - 6m = 3m is the initial position of the other part of the function.

for t ≥ 3s we have:

p(t) = 4m/s*t + p(3s) = 4m/s*t + 3m

then the position equation is:

p(t) = (1m/s^2)*t^2 - 2m/s*t  ---- t ≤ 3s

p(t) = 4m/s*t + 3m --- if t ≥ 3s

Now the displacement will be:

p(4s) - p(2s) where for each time, you need to use the correct function:

p(4s) = 4m/s*4s + 3m = 16m + 3m = 19m

p(2s) =  (1m/s^2)*2s^2 - 2m/s*2s = 4m - 4m = 0m

p(4s) - p(2s) = 19m - 0m = 19m

Answer 2

The butterfly displacement x from t=2 to 4s is 19 meters.

What is displacement?

The spacing between two specified points is represented by the one-dimensional quantity of displacement (symbolised as d or s), commonly known as length or distance.

The total displacement between t = 2s and t = 4s.

Integrate our function, the velocity equation.

for t ≤ 3s, we have a linear equation, let's write it:

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a x t + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

The line passes through the points (1, 0) and (0, -2)

The slope is:

a = (0 -(-2)/(1 - 0) = 2/1 = 2

When t = 0s, v(0s) = -2m/s, then our equation is:

v(t) = (2m/s²) x t - 2m/s for t ≤ 3s

now, for t ≥3s the equation is constant, v(t) = 4m/s.

v(t) = (2m/s²) x t - 2m/s -------if t ≤ 3s

v(t) = 4m/s ----- if t ≥ 3s

Now we integrate over time to get the position:

for t ≤ 3s we have:

p(t) = (1/2) x (2m/s²) x t^2 - 2m/s x t + C

where C is a constant of integration, to calculate the displacement  this constant actually does not matter,

p(t) = (1m/s²)*t^2 - 2m/s x t  for t ≤ 3s

and p(3s) =  (1m/s^2) x 3s² - 2m/s x 3s = 9m - 6m = 3m is the initial position of the other part of the function.

for t ≥ 3s we have:

p(t) = 4m/s x t + p(3s) = 4m/s x t + 3m

then the position equation is:

p(t) = (1m/s^2) x t² - 2m/s x t  ---- t ≤ 3s

p(t) = 4m/s x t + 3m --- if t ≥ 3s

Now the displacement will be:

p(4s) - p(2s) where for each time, you need to use the correct function:

p(4s) = 4m/s x 4s + 3m = 16m + 3m = 19m

p(2s) =  (1m/s²) x 2s²- 2m/s x 2s = 4m - 4m = 0m

p(4s) - p(2s) = 19m - 0m = 19m

Thus, the displacement is 19 m.

A wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and a wavelength of 0.5 m, what is the speed of this wave?

Answers

Answer:

2.5 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave can be found using the following formula.

v= λ * f

where  λ is the wavelength in meters (m) and f is the frequency of the wave in Hertz (Hz).

We know the wavelength is 0.5 m and the frequency of the wave is 5 Hz.

Therefore,

λ= 0.5 m

f = 5 Hz

v= 0.5 * 5

Multiply 0.5 by 5, or divide 5 by 2.

0.5 * 5= 2.5     or      5/2=2.5

v= 2.5

Add appropriate units. The units for wave speed are m/s (meters per second).

v= 2.5 m/s

The speed of the wave is 2.5 meters per second.

If a gas and a liquid are both at the same temperature, the particles of gas have a higher average kinetic energy. True or false?

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy is the measure of how freely the molecules of a substance moves relative to the other molecules within the substance. Gas and liquids are together termed fluids,  but the molecules of a gas naturally has more more average kinetic energy that that of a liquid, if they are kept at the same temperature. This explains why gases are easy to expand, and have to be confined by a container. So the particles of a gas has more kinetic energy that that of a liquid even if they are kept at the same temperature.

B: id does not vibrate on moon surface
C: it vibrations are not transmitted inside the spacecraft
D:it's vibrations are not transmitted to the moon's atmosphere

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

D: Its vibrations are not transmitted to the moon's atmosphere

Explanation:

A tuning fork is used to produce sound by vibration  such that the tune produced is pure

The tune, sound, produced by the tuning fork is transmitted as sound wave through the air by means of the gases of the air as a transmission medium so people at a distance that have air around them can hear the tuning fork sound

On the Moon's surface, the atmosphere is very and it is referred to technically as an exosphere, so the sound of the tuning fork has no medium through which to transmit and therefore, it is not transmitted on the Moon's atmosphere.

Explanation:

force = mass* acceleration

equation of motion

[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2as[/tex]

where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

and s is the distance moved

______________________________________________

Given

mass = 1 kg

initial velocity (u) = 40m/s

final velocity (v) = 0 as stones comes to rest

distance moved by stone (s) = 50m

using  [tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2as[/tex]

[tex]0 = 40^2 +2a*50\\=> -1600 = 100a\\=> a = -1600/100 = -16[/tex]

Thus, acceleration is -16 m/s^2

here acceleration is negative as force of friction is opposing the motion.

Force of friction = mass of stone * acceleration of stone

Force of friction = 1*-16 kgm/s^2 = -16N       ( kgm/s^2 = 1 N)

Thus, option c -16N is correct choice.

Answers

Explanation:

[tex]centripetal \: force = \frac{m {v}^{2} }{r} [/tex]

Centripetal force = 45 * 2 = 90 N

Therefore, centripetal force acting on a 45 kg boy riding in one of the cars when the car is on the top of the ferris wheel is 90 N.

The force exerted by the seat on the boy when the car is at the top of the ferris wheel is a centrifugal (pseudo force) acting (since the since the seat is in non- inertial frame) in exact opposite direction (Outwards) as the centripetal force and is equal in magnitude.

Answers

Answer:

E= 600 W

Explanation:

Given that

m = 2 kg

Speed ,  v= 10 m/s

Force , F= 60 N

Given that box is moving with constant velocity, it means that friction force will be 60 N.

f = 60 N

Therefore total energy generated

E= f x v

E= 60 x 10 = 600 W

E= 600 W

Thus the answer will be 600 W.

A student measures the depth of a water well with an adjustable frequency audio oscillator. 2 successive resonant frequencies are heard at 40Hz and 50Hz. What is the depth of the well?

Answers

Answer:

17.15 m

Explanation:

Assuming the well is empty (full of air instead of water), the speed of sound is v = 343 m/s.

The water well acts as a pipe closed at one end.  Therefore, the depth of the water well must be an odd multiple of a quarter of the resonant wavelength.

L = (2n − 1) λ/4, n = 1, 2, 3, etc.

v = λf, so λ = v/f.  Substituting:

L = (2n − 1) v/(4f)

Solving for frequency:

f = (2n − 1) v/(4L)

The difference between two successive resonant frequencies is therefore:

Δf = (2(n+1) − 1) v/(4L) − (2n − 1) v/(4L)

Δf = (2n + 1) v/(4L) − (2n − 1) v/(4L)

Δf = 2 v/(4L)

Δf = v/(2L)

Plugging in values:

50 Hz − 40 Hz = 343 m/s / (2L)

2L = 34.3 m

L = 17.15 m

450 J kg^-1 °C^-1]​

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature is 31.94°

Explanation:

The mass of the water in the container m₁ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

The initial temperature of the water,  T₁₁ = 30°C

The mass of the iron, m₂ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

The temperature of the iron T₂₁= 50°C is immersed in the water,

The specific heat capacity of the water, c₁ = 4200 J/(kg·°C)

The specific heat capacity of the iron, c₂ = 450 J/(kg·°C)

Heat capacity relation is given by the formula;

Heat capacity Q = Mass, m × Specific heat capacity, c × Temperature change, (T₂ - T₁)

Given that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, and with the assumption that all the heat lost by the nail is gained by the water we have;

Heat lost by iron nail = Heat gained by the  water

m₁ × c₁ × (T₂ - T₁₁) = m₂ × c₂ × (T₂₁ - T₂)

Where, T₂ is the final temperature

0.2 kg × 4200 J/(kg·°C) × (T₂ - 30) = 0.2 kg × 450 J/(kg·°C) × (50° - T₂)

840·T₂ - 25200 = 4500 - 90·T₂

4500 + 25200 = 840·T₂ + 90·T₂

29700 = 930·T₂

T₂ = 29700/930 = 31.94°.

The final temperature = 31.94°.

Power = work / time

P = 2500 J / 120 s

P = 20.83 W

The power of the second person is:

P = 2500 J / 60 s

P = 41.67 W

Please answer, it's really urgent A boy performs an experiment to measure the speed of sound. He stands 100 meters away form a large wall and claps his hands to make an echo. He claps again as soon as he was the echo, He does this ten times, each time clapping an soon as he hears the echo. The time between the first clap and the tenth echo a recorded. Why it better to time ten echoes together rather than just one echo?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of sound is very high . It is about 340 m /s . In one echo , it takes approximately

2 x 100 / 340

= .6 sec

In 10 simultaneous echo , it will take 6 s . It is difficult to measure .6 sec but to measure 6 s is easy and it can be made with greater precision , so we can calculate velocity of sound with great precision .

This is the reason why , instead of one echo , 10 echos are made and duration of 10 echo is measured , rather than making one echo and measuring time of one echo .
