A 29000-kg open railroad car, initially coasting at 0.825 m/s with negligible friction, passes under a hopper that dumps 117500 kg of scrap metal into it. a)What is the final speed, in meters per second, of the loaded freight car?
b)How much kinetic energy is lost, in joules, when the freight car receives this scrap metal? Ignore the free-fall kinetic energy of the scrap metal.

Dao makes a table to identify the variables used in the equations for centripetal acceleration. what quantities belong in cells x and y?

Two loudspeakers, 5.5 m apart and facing each other, play identical sounds of the same frequency. you stand halfway between them, where there is a maximum of sound intensity. moving from this point toward one of the speakers, you encounter a minimum of sound intensity when you have moved 0.33 m . assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s.part a) what is the frequency of the sound? part b) if the frequency is then increased while you remain 0.21 m from the center, what is the first frequency for which that location will be a maximum of sound intensity? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Select light for the type of wave, adjust the wavelength so that the light is red, and increase the amplitude of the light to the max. then, select the start button at the source location to begin producing the waves. light is a form of electromagnetic wave, containing oscillating electric and magnetic fields. the wave amplitude detector mentioned above shows how the electric field oscillates in time at the location of the probe. the amplitude of the wave at the location of the probe is equal to the maximum electric field measured. how does the amplitude of the wave depend on the distance from the source?
