An observer sitting on shore sees a canoe traveling 5.0 m/s east, and a sailboat traveling 15.0 m/s west. What is the velocity of the sailboat as observed on the canoe (relative to the canoe)?
Answer:
Vs/c = 20 [m/s]
Explanation:
This is a problem of relative velocities, as velocity is a vector we can use addition or subtraction of vectors for the solution.
We are asked for the velocity of the sailboat with respect to an observer located in the canoe.
[tex]V_{s/c}=V_{sailboat}-V_{canoe}\\V_{s/c}=15-(-5)\\V_{s/c}=20[m/s][/tex]
Why is the speed of the canoe negative?, it is negative because the canoe moves in the opposite direction to the sailboat.
What is the most important factor that determines the thickness, and therefore strength, of the lithosphere?
Answer:
Internal temperature
Explanation:
The temperature of the lithosphere has been said to vary across range of temperature values. From a temperature of the crust of about zero degrees Celsius (or 32 degrees Fahrenheit) to a temperature of around 500 degrees Celsius (932 degrees Fahrenheit) for that of the upper mantle. This said temperature is the most crucial factor in determining the strength, the thickness and thereof of the lithosphere

which property of an object is not changed by a force
what type of change is water to boiling water? and why?
Answer:
hope it helps
Explanation:
Boiling water is an example of a physical change and not a chemical change because the water vapor still has the same molecular structure as liquid water (H2O). If the bubbles were caused by the decomposition of a molecule into a gas (such as H2O →H2 and O2), then boiling would be a chemical change.

During a hockey game, a puck is given an initial speed of 10 m/s. It slides 50 m on the horizontal ice before it stops due to friction. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the pick and the ice.A) 0.12B) 0.10C) 0.11D) 0.090
Answer:
The value is [tex]\mu_k = 0.102[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The initial speed of the pluck is [tex]u = 10 \ m/s[/tex]
The distance it slides on the horizontal ice is [tex]s = 50 \ m[/tex]
Generally from kinematic equation we have that
[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2as[/tex]
Here v is is the final velocity and the value is 0 m/s given that the pluck came to rest, so
[tex]0^2 = 10 ^2 + 2* a * 50[/tex]
=> [tex]a = - 1 \ m/s^2[/tex]
Here the negative sign show that the pluck is decelerating
Generally the force applied on the pluck is equal to the frictional force experienced by the pluck
So
[tex]F = F_f[/tex]
=> [tex]m * a = m* g * \mu_k[/tex]
=> [tex]1 = 9.8 * \mu_k[/tex]
=> [tex]\mu_k = 0.102[/tex]
A 50.0 kg object is moving at 18.2 m/s when a 200 N force is applied opposite the direction of the objects motion, causing it to slow down to 12.6 m/s. How long was this force applies?
Answer:
t = 1.4[s]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is conserved before and after applying a force to a body. We must remember that the impulse can be calculated by means of the following equation.
[tex]P=m*v\\or\\P=F*t[/tex]
where:
P = impulse or lineal momentum [kg*m/s]
m = mass = 50 [kg]
v = velocity [m/s]
F = force = 200[N]
t = time = [s]
Now we must be clear that the final linear momentum must be equal to the original linear momentum plus the applied momentum. In this way we can deduce the following equation.
[tex](m_{1}*v_{1})-F*t=(m_{1}*v_{2})[/tex]
where:
m₁ = mass of the object = 50 [kg]
v₁ = velocity of the object before the impulse = 18.2 [m/s]
v₂ = velocity of the object after the impulse = 12.6 [m/s]
[tex](50*18.2)-200*t=50*12.6\\910-200*t=630\\200*t=910-630\\200*t=280\\t=1.4[s][/tex]

A stretched string is observed to have four equal segments in a standing wave driven at a frequency of 480 Hz. What driving frequency will set up a standing wave with five equal segments?
a) 360 Hz.b) 240 Hz.c) 600 Hz.d) 120 Hz.
Answer:
C) 600 Hz
Explanation:
The fundamental frequency can be related to the driving frequency by the expression below;
f(n) = n * f(1)
Where f(1)= fundamental frequency
f(n) = driving frequency
There are four equal segments in the standing wave , then our n= 4 and our f(n)=4, then we can get the fundamental frequency here
f(4) = 4× f(1)
480 = 4× f(1)
f(1) = 480/4
f(1)=120Hz
Hence, fundamental frequency is 120Hz
To calculate the driving frequency that will set up a standing wave with five equal segments?
n=5
f(n) = n× 120Hz
f(5) = 5×120Hz
= 600Hz.
Hence, the driving frequency that will set up a standing wave with five equal segments is 600Hz
The decibel scale intensity for busy traffic is 80 dB. Two people having a loud conversation have a decibel intensity of 70 dB. What is the approximate combined sound intensity?
Given :
The decibel scale intensity for busy traffic is 80 dB.
Two people having a loud conversation have a decibel intensity of 70 dB.
To Find :
The approximate combined sound intensity.
Solution :
We know, intensity in decibel can be converted to W/m² by :
[tex]\beta(dB) = 10\ log_{10}( \dfrac{I}{I_o})[/tex]
Putting intensity in decibel scale, we get :
[tex]I(80\ dB ) =10^{-4}\ W/m^2\\\\I(70\ dB ) = 10^{-5}\ W/m^2[/tex]
Let, combine intensity is I .
I = I(80 dB) + I(70 dB)
[tex]I = 10^{-4} + 10^{-5} \ W/m^2\\\\I = 1.1 \times 10^{-4} \ W/m^2[/tex]
Therefore, the combined sound intensity is [tex]1.1 \times 10^{-4} \ W/m^2[/tex] .

At an amusemlec 27 collisions and powerent park, a 96.0 kg car moving with a speed v bounces elastically off a 135-kg bumper car at rest. If the final speed of the 135-kg car is 1.03 m/s, what is the initial speed of the 96.0-kg car?
By conservation of momentum :
[tex]m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2\\\\96v + 0 = 96v_1 + 135\times 1.03\\\\96v = 96v_1 +139.05 \ \ \ \ \ \ .....1[/tex]
By conservation of energy :
[tex]\dfrac{m_1u_1^2}{2}+\dfrac{m_1u_2^2}{2} =\dfrac{m_2v_1^2}{2} +\dfrac{m_2v_2^2}{2}\\\\96v^2 + 0 = 96v_1^2 + 135(1.03)^2\\\\96v^2 = 96v_1^2 +143.22 \ \ \ \ \ ....2)[/tex]
Solving equation 1 and 2, we get :
v = 1.23 m/s
Therefore, the initial speed of 96 kg car is 1.23 m/s .

Hazel recently read an article that claimed that radio waves can cause electron displacement. Based on
the passage, is the article's claim true?
No, because radio waves
have energies that are too
low to fall in the ionizing
range
Yes, because radio waves
have energies that are
high enough to fall in the
ionizing range
Yes, because radio waves
have wavelengths that
are short enough to fall in
the ionizing range
Answer:
Based on the passage, the article's claim is not true. Therefore, the answer is:
No, because radio waves have energies that are too low to fall in the ionizing range.
Explanation:
Radio waves are generally known as forms of non-ionizing radiation. This means that they do not have enough energy, unlike microwaves, to separate electrons from atoms or molecules, thereby ionizing them. They cannot cause electron displacement, as claimed in the article. Therefore, they cannot break chemical bonds, which can cause chemical reactions or DNA damage. As non-ionizing radiation, radio waves occur at lower frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.

A 500-eV electron and a 300-eV electron trapped in a uniform magnetic field move in circular paths in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. What is the ratio of the radii of their orbits?
a. 2.8
b. 1.7.
c. 1.3.
d. 4.0.
e. 1.0.
Answer:ratio of the radii of their orbits = 1.3 --- C
Explanation:
1- eV = to the kinetic energy of the electrons
and kinetic energy is given as
K.E= 1/2mv2
v = √(2E/m)----- equation 1
The force on the particles relating to the magnetic and circular motion ( centripetal force is given as
F = magnetic force = centripetal force
F= qvB = mv2/r
qvB = mv2/r
r = mv/qB ------ equation 2
We know from equation 1 that v = √(2E/m)
Therefore,
r = √(2mE)/qB------ equation 3
We can now say that the ratio of the two radii of their orbits can be calculated as
r1/r2 =(√(2mE1)/qB) /(√(2mE2)/qB
Where E1 = 500-eV and E2 = 300-eV (1- eV = to the kinetic energy of the electrons)
r1/r2 = (√(2m x500)/qB) /(√(2mx 300)/qB
Cancelling out common variables, we are left with
r1/r2 =[tex]\sqrt{500/300}[/tex]
r1/r2= 1.29 ≈ 1.3
A 4 kg block is pushed up an incline that makes a 30° angle with the horizontal, as shown in the figure. Once the block is pushed a distance of d = 5.0 m up the incline, the block remains at rest.
What is the approximate change in the gravitational potential energy of the block-Earth system when the block is held at rest compared to its original location at the bottom of the incline?
A) OJ
B) 100 J
C) 100/33 J
D) 200 J
Answer:
B) 100 J
Explanation:
Assuming the distance given is measured along the incline, the vertical change in height is (5 m)(sin 30°) = 2.5 m. Then the change in potential energy is ...
∆PE = mg(∆h) = (4 kg)(10 m/s^2)(2.5 m) = 100 J
The force is defined as the product of the mass and the acceleration. The energy stored in an object which is converted into kinetic energy is called potential energy.
The formula for the potential energy is mgh.
The correct answer is B that is 100J.
As the surface is inclined the vertical change in height is[tex](5 m)(sin 30^o) = 2.5[/tex]m.
Therefore the potential energy after solving it is as follows:-
[tex]PE = mg(h) \\= (4 kg)(10 m/s^2)(2.5 m)\\\\= 100 J[/tex]

The wave characteristics you will observe in this lab are common to all waves (water, light, sound,
etc.). Use your prior knowledge and the book to fill in the following blanks, then go in the hall and
perform the lab.
A wave is a disturbance that moves through (propagates) through empty space or through a
_____________. There are two types of waves. A _____________________ wave requires
matter to travel. List some examples of this type:
A _____________________ wave does not require a medium. Examples include:
In order to start and transmit a mechanical wave, a source of _____________ and an
_______________ medium are required. A single disturbance is referred to as a
_______________, and a series of disturbances is a wave __________.
The questions in bold are those you should observe directly. Others will be answered using the book.
A. TYPES OF MECHANICAL WAVES: In the hall, stretch the slinky on the floor until it is
stretched (but still loose). Practice sending single pulses down the slinky by popping your wrist
from the center to the side and back to the center. Then send a continuous wave train along as
your partner holds the other end still. A piece of ribbon should be tied to one coil. Watch the
motion of this ribbon (representing a particle) as the wave travels through the spring.
In this type of wave, the particles move (perpendicular, parallel)
to the direction the wave travels. This type of wave is called a __________________ wave.
Its pulses are called ________________ and ________________.
Now send a pulse by quickly pushing the spring forward and pulling

In this type, the particles move _____________ to the direction the wave travels. Its pulses
are called _____________ and _____________. Label each.
Note that all waves transfer _____________ without transferring _______________. In
mechanical waves, particles of the medium vibrate back and forth in simple harmonic motion while
the disturbance (or _____________) moves from one place to another.
B. WAVE SPEED
Send a large pulse, followed by a small one. Does one pulse catch up to the other? ______
(Hint: The person who sends these waves should watch how the waves look when they return. Make
sure that both pulses are large enough initially to make it back to the sender!) The size of the
pulse is called the __________________ of the wave. Did the size affect the speed? ______
Generate a single transverse pulse in the slinky, keeping the stretch constant. Using a stopwatch,
time the journey of the pulse from one end to the other and back again. Take the average of
several trials. _________
Without changing your positions on the floor (therefore keeping the _____________ the pulse
travels the same), pull the slinky tighter using only about 3/4 of the coils. This makes a completely
different medium through which the pulse will travel. Time the journey as before. ___________

______________ proportional. Write the units for each of the variables in this equation.
The exercise involves filling in the gaps with the possible wave
properties that can be obtained from a spring.
How is the Wave Properties in a Spring Lab exercise correctly completed?The correctly completed exercise is presented as follows;
A wave is a disturbance that moves through a medium. There are two
types of waves. A mechanical wave requires matter to travel. List some
examples of this type: sound wave, water wave, spring waves.
A electromagnetic wave does not require a medium. Examples include: Light waves
In order to start and transmit a mechanical wave, a source of
disturbance and a physical medium are required. A single disturbance is
referred to as a pulse, and a series of disturbance is a wave train.
This type of wave is called transverse wave. Its pulses are called crest
and troughs.
Now send a pulse by quickly pushing the spring forward and pulling it
back, as shown. This type of wave is called longitudinal wave. Watch the
motion of the ribbon. In this type, the particles move parallel to the
direction the wave travels. Its pulses are called compression and
rarefactions. Note that all waves transfer energy without transferring
matter. In mechanical waves, particle of the medium vibrate back and
forth in simple harmonic motion while the disturbance (or energy)
moves from one place to another.
B. Wave speed
Does the pulse catch up to the other? yes. The size of the pulse is called
the amplitude of the wave.
Did the size of the pulse affect the speed? No.
The average time wave it takes the wave to travel
Without changing your positions therefore keeping the distance the
pulse travels the same), pull the slinky tighter using only about 3/4 of

what is the difference between total distance covered vs. total displacement of the rube goldberg
Answer:
The deer traveled 1300m + 500m + 300m, for a total distance. The exact same motion, distance and displacement have significantly different values. It tells you the rate at which an object's displacement, or position, changes.
Total distance covered is amount of distance cover during the course whereas total displacement is difference between initial and final position.
What is distance?Distance is the sum of an object's movements, regardless of direction. Distance can be defined as the amount of space an object has covered, regardless of its starting or ending position.
What is displacement?The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It is a vector quantity with a magnitude and direction. The symbol for it is an arrow pointing from the initial location to the ending place. For instance, if an object shifts from location A to position B, its position changes. Displacement is the term used to describe this shift in an object's position.
Hence total distance covered and total displacement are different. Total distance covered is amount of distance cover during the course whereas total displacement is difference between initial and final position.
