A cart, which has a mass of m - 2.50 kg, is sitting at the top of an inclined plane which is 3.30 meters long and which meets th

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Part(i) the time taken for this cart to reach the bottom of the inclined plane is 1.457 s

Part(ii) the velocity of the cart when it reaches the bottom of the inclined plane is 4.531 m/s

Part(iii) the kinetic energy of the cart when it reaches the bottom of the inclined plane is 25.663 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the cart = 2.5 kg

angle of inclination, β = 18.5⁰

length of inclined plane = 3.3m

Part(i) the time taken for this cart to reach the bottom of the inclined plane

s = ut + ¹/₂×at²

initial vertical velocity, u = 0

s = 3.3 m

s = ¹/₂×at²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{a} }$

acceleration, of the cart, a = gsinβ

a = 9.8sin(18.5) = 3.11 m/s²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2X3.3}{3.11 }}= 1.457 s$

Part(ii) the velocity of the cart when it reaches the bottom of the inclined plane

V = a×t

V = 3.11 × 1.457 = 4.531 m/s

Part(iii) the kinetic energy of the cart when it reaches the bottom of the inclined plane

KE = ¹/₂MV²

= ¹/₂ × 2.5× (4.531)²

= 25.663 J

A sound system is being set up in a gazebo in a park. It needs to produce music so that everyone can hear it. How much power wou

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Power of the speakers = 1.57 $\times 10^{-6} W$

Explanation:

There are speakers setup in a park and we have to find the power it would require to have intensity of sound to be $10^{-8} W/m^2$ at a distance of 5 meter.

In one dimension the intensity is constant as the wave travels. In two or three dimensions, however, the intensity decreases as you get further from the source.

Intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the point of sound production.

Here area = 2 $\times \pi \times r^{2}$

area = 157 $m^{2}$

$Intensity = \frac{Power}{Area}$

$Power = intensity \times area$

Power = $10^{-8} \times 157Power = 1.57 [tex]\times 10^{-6} W$

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 240-cm-long string that is fixed at both ends?

Irina18 [472]

For a standing wave if both ends are fixed, the wavelength must be such that the length of the string be an exact multiple of a half wavelength.
The longest wavelength must be such that the length of the string must be equal to half a wavelength, and therefore the wavelength must be double the length of the string; That is 240× 2 = 480 cm
The second longest wavelength must be such that the length of the string must be equal to a whole wavelength, so the second longest wavelength must be 240 cm.
The third longest wavelength must be such that the length of the string must be equal to 1.5 times the wavelength, so the wavelength must be 240/1.5 = 160 cm.
