Waves on a swimming pool propagate at 0.75 m/s. You splash the water at one end of the pool and observe the wave go to the opposite end, reflect, and return in 30.00 s. How far away is the other end of the pool?

X = 0 A person with mass m1 = 52 kg stands at the left end of a uniform beam with mass m2 = 105 kg and a length L = 3.3 m. Another person with mass m3 = 59 kg stands on the far right end of the beam and holds a medicine ball with mass m4 = 9 kg (assume that the medicine ball is at the far right end of the beam as well). Let the origin of our coordinate system be the left end of the original position of the beam as shown in the drawing. Assume there is no friction between the beam and floor. What is the location of the center of mass of the system? m Submit Help The medicine ball is throw to the left end of the beam (and caught). What is the location of the center of mass now? m Submit Help What is the new x-position of the person at the left end of the beam? (How far did the beam move when the ball was throw from person to person?) m Submit Help To return the medicine ball to the other person, both people walk to the center of the beam. At what x-position do they end up? m Submit Help

(a) In a minor rail yard accident, a runaway goods truck of mass 1.85×104 kg collides at u = 20.0 ms−1 with a stationary truck of mass 2.20×104 kg, as shown in Figure 3. The trucks lock together and travel at the same speed after the collision. Assume friction is negligible. Figure 3 Sketch of the runaway and stationary goods trucks, for use in Question 10. (i) Show that the speed of the trucks after the collision is 9.14 ms−1. (ii) One of the truck wheels can be modelled as a solid disk of radius 4.60×10−1 m and moment of inertia 36.5 kgm2. Calculate the magnitude of the wheel's angular momentum after the collision. (iii) The truck's linear velocity vector is in the positive x-direction using the Cartesian coordinate system shown in Figure 3. What is the direction of the wheel's angular momentum vector? Briefly explain your reasoning. (b) The train driver sounds the train's whistle. The whistle is a pipe that is open at one end and closed at the other, and it has a length of 0.480 m. The speed of sound in air is 343 ms−1. (i) Sketch the standing wave pattern of the air pressure in the whistle for its fundamental resonant frequency. Clearly indicate the open and closed ends of the whistle pipe. (ii) Hence calculate the frequency of the sound made by the whistle's fundamental resonance. (c) An observer standing on a bridge above the train track hears the whistle as the train approaches at a speed of 40.0 ms−1. (i) Show that the whistle frequency perceived by the observer is 13.2% greater than the frequency perceived by the driver. (ii) Describe how the sound of the whistle, as heard by the observer, will change as the train approaches and goes past the bridge.
