Sound of squealing brakes alerts the bird to onrushing car : A driver is driving once again from Nogales to Tucson on I-19, past the wreck of the car that veered off the road and struck a cactus, surrounded by a throng of industrious physics students measuring the skid marks, the crumpled hood, and the indenta..

Electric field-long pipe of outer radius and inner radius : A long pipe of outer radius 3.50 cm and inner radius 2.98 cm carries a uniform charge density of 5.22 mC/m3. Using Gauss\'s law and assuming the pipe is adequately long to consider it infinitely long, compute the electric field r = 7.35 cm from the c..

Gravity is still acting in the negative y-direction : What minimum constant acceleration in the x-direction must be provided by the engines so the cycle crosses safely if the opposite side is 0.660 km lower than the starting point? At what speed does the motorcycle land if it maintains this constant hor..

Acceleration of the blue car once the brakes are applied : Two cars start from rest at a red stop light. When the light turns green, both cars accelerate forward. The blue car accelerates uniformly at a rate of 3.1 m/s 2 for 3.7 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 12.4 seconds, before applyin..

Siren radiates sound uniformly in all directions : At a distance of 4.50 m from a siren, the sound intensity is 5.13 × 10-2 W/m2. Assuming that the siren radiates sound uniformly in all directions, discover the total power radiated.

Ow much sound energy comes during the window in one hour : Sound is passing perpendicularly during an open window whose dimensions are 1.1 m x 0.75 m. The sound intensity level is 86 dB above the threshold of human hearing. How much sound energy comes during the window in one hour?

Stationary bird-watcher and emits a frequency : A bird is flying directly toward a stationary bird-watcher and emits a frequency of 1380 Hz. The bird-watcher, but, hears a frequency of 1450 Hz. What is the speed of the bird, expressed as a percentage of the speed of sound?

Earths atmosphere is constantly bombarded cosmic ray protons : Earth's atmosphere is constantly bombarded by cosmic ray protons that originate somewhere in space. If the protons all passed during the atmosphere, each square meter of Earth's surface would intercept protons at the average rate of 1330 protons per ..
