9. Use the following information to answer parts a, b, c and d Verdah, Hetav and Dhinesh are undertaking an investigation into the motion of wooden blocks in their Physics class. Their aim is to determine the effect that mass has on the horizontal motion of the wooden block across a table.
Verdah suggests that they use a launcher to give both blocks the same initial velocity and that they use the same table for each trial.
The blocks are made from the same wood but have different masses. The mass of block A (m1) is twice the mass of block B (m2). The coefficient of friction between the blocks and the table is u.

a. Hetav hypothesises that block A will travel a greater distance across the table before coming to rest. WITHOUT using an equation provide an explanation for Hetav's hypothesis.

b. Dhinesh disagrees with Hetav and states that block B will travel a greater distance before coming to rest. WITHOUT using an equation provide an explanation for Dhinesh's hypothesis.

c. Derive a mathematical expression that the students could use to find the distance block A travels after it leaves the launcher. Upload a copy of your HANDWRITTEN working clearly identifying all equations and constants used in your derivation. Make sure your name is visible next to your working.

d. Using the equation derived in part c to support your answer, justify if Hetav or Dhinesh was correct in their hypothesis.

The frequency of a tuning fork can be found by the method shown. a long tube open at both ends is submerged in a beaker of water, and the vibrating tuning fork is placed near the top of the tube. the length l of the air column is adjusted by moving the tube vertically. the sound waves generated by the fork are reinforced when the length of the air column corresponds to one of the resonant frequencies of the tube. the smallest value for l for which a peak occurs in sound intensity is 7 cm. l what is the frequency of the tuning fork? the speed of sound in air is 345 m/s. answer in units of hz
