Answer:

0.085m/s²

Explanation:

Use v²=v0²+2a(d)

solve for a

v²-v0²/2d=a

Plug in givens

1.89²-0.78²/2*17.5=a

Plug into calculator

a=0.085m/s²

We know the frequency range of certain sounds are: 400-560 Hz, what are the ranges of wavelength in meters when the signal trans

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Range of wavelength will be $5.35\times 10^5m$ to $7.5\times 10^5m$

Explanation:

We have given range of frequency is 400-560 Hz

Speed of the light $c=3\times 10^8m/sec$

We have to find the range of the wavelength of signal transmitted

Ween know that velocity is given by $v=\lambda f$ , here $\lambda$ is wavelength and f is frequency

So for 400 Hz frequency wavelength will be $\lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{400}=7.5\times 10^5m$

And wavelength for frequency 560 Hz $\lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{560}=5.35\times 10^5m$

So range of wavelength will be $5.35\times 10^5m$ to $7.5\times 10^5m$

Alex73 [517]

Answer: I = 3.6 m3

(C)

Explanation:

moment of inertia for spherically shaped object around it's center is given as

I = (2/5) mr²

substituting the r = 3m²

I = (2/5)*(9) m3

I = 3.6 m3

An 4.0-kg fish pulled upward by a fisherman rises 1.9 m in 2.4 s, starting

mina [271]

Answer:

2.64N

Explanation:

Force = mass * acceleration

Given

mass = 4kg

distance = 1.9m

Time t = 2.4s

Get the acceleration using the equation of motion

S = ut + 1/2at²

1.9 = 0 + 1/2a(2.4)²

1.9 = 5.76a/2

1.9 = 2.88a

a = 1.9/2.88

a = 0.66m/s²

Get the magnitude of the force

Force = 4 * 0.66

Force = 2.64N

Hence the net force acting on the fish is 2.64N
