Answer:

Upward: Negative

Downward: Positve

Explanation:

Let upward be positive

We want to find the work done on the object upwards.

The equation of work done due to gravity is

f _{g}d \cos( \alpha )

It is read as force of gravity times displacement times cos of the angle between the force and displacement.

Since gravity is happening down of the center of mass and the displacement is upwards, the angle is 180° so

f_{g}d \cos(180)

Cosine of 180 is -1

so

-  f_{g}d

If we go downwards, the sign will be positive because cos(0)=1

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 264- cm -long string that is fixed at both ends
miv72 [106K]

The three longest wavelengths for the standing waves on a 264-cm long string that is fixed at both ends are:

  1. 5.2 meters.
  2. 2.6 meters.
  3. 1.7meters.

Given data:

Length of the fixed string = 264cms = 2.64 meters

The wavelength for standing waves is given by:

λ = 2L/n

where,

  • λ is the wavelength
  • L is the length of the string

For n = 1,

  • λ = 2×2.6/1

= 5.2 meters

For n = 2,

  • λ = 2×2.6/2

= 2.6 meters

For n = 3,

  • λ = 2×2.6/3

= 1.7 meters

Which scientific term is defined as the rate at which work is accomplished?
Oliga [24]

Power is the scientific term defined as the rate at which work is accomplished. Power can be seen everywhere as it is applied to our everyday living. Power is seen when one pushes a heavy cart. It could be seen when a baseball hitter hits the ball.

A solid ball and a hollow ball, each with a mass of 1.00 kg and radius of 0.100 m start from rest and roll down a ramp of length
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The solid ball and hollow ball both will reach the bottom with the same speed.

Explanation:

The speed of the solid and hollow balls is independent of  the mass and the radius. A solid and hollow ball experience same speed on a given incline.

The speed can be calculated as

v = √(10/7)gh

where g is gravitational acceleration and h is the height

sinθ = h/L

h = L*sinθ

h = 3*sin(35)

h = 1.72 m

v = √(10/7)*9.8*1.72

v = 4.91 m/s

Both balls will reach the bottom at the speed of 4.91 m/s.

2. A 75 kg runner accelerates from 0.00 m/s to 10.0 m/s in 1.5 seconds.
raketka [301]
A :-) A.a.) Given - u = 0.00 m/s
v = 10.0 m/s
t = 1.5 sec
m = 75 kg
Solution -
a = v - u by t
a = 10 - 0 by 1.5
a = 10 by 1.5
a = 6.6 m/s^2

A.b.) sorry ! I don’t no how to do this question

How does the law of conservation of energy apply to machinesBased on the law of conservation of energy, how can we reasonably im
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

According,to the law of conservation of energy,the amount of energy in a closed system always stay constant. ... So,the amount of work output and other transformed energy is equal to the amount of energy inputs. • In this way,the conservation of energy is fulfilled by the machines.
