Two boxes are connected to each other by a string as shown in the figure. The 10-n box slides without friction on the horizontal

table surface. The pulley is ideal and the string has negligible mass. What is true about the tension t in the string?

Answer:

T=7.4 N hence T<30 N

Explanation:

The figure is likely to be similar to the one attached. Writing the equation for forces we have

F-T=Fa/g where F is the force, T is tension, a is acceleration and g is acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the figures we have the first equation as

30 N - T = (30/9.81)a

Also, we know that T=F*a/g and substituting  10N for F we obtain the second equation as

T = (10/9.81)a

Adding the first and second equations we obtain

30 = 4.077471967

a Hence

a=\frac {30}{4.077471967}=7.3575 m/s^{2}

and T=a hence

T is approximately 7.4 N

Answer:

<h2>T < 30N</h2>

Explanation:

According to the figure, we have a system with 2 blocks attached by a string which passes through a pulley. In this case, we have to use Newton't law to find the tension of the string. We need to analyse each block to know what vertical and horizontal forces are present in each of them.

10N block:

Horizontal forces: Tension (T).

Vertical forces: Weight (W).

There's no friction and knowing this values, we can find the mass using: W = mg.

So, m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{10}{9.8} =1.02 kg.

30N block:

There's no horizontal forces because the block is suspended.

Vertical forces: Tension and Weight.

We can calculate the mass using W = mg

So, m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{30}{9.8} = 3.06 kg.

Now, we analyse the system, to do so, we need to express vertical forces interactions and horizontal forces interactions:

According to second Newton's Law \sum F = ma.

So, vertically for 30N block: \sum F_{y} = W_{30} - T=ma

Then, horizontally for 10N block: \sum F_{x}= T = ma

So, \left \{ {{W_{30} -T=m_{30} a} \atop {T=m_{10} a}} \right..

Now we have to solve this system replacing <em>a </em>from the second equation into the first one:

a=\frac{T}{m_{10} }

W_{30} - T = m_{30}(\frac{T}{m_{10} }   )

Replacing all values and solving for T:

30N - T = 3.06kg\frac{T}{1.02kg} \\30N - T = 3T\\30N=3T + T\\30N = 4T\\\frac{30N}{4} =T = 7.5N

Therefore, the tension in the string has a force of 7.5N, which is less than 30N.

Among the options we have:

  • T=10N
  • T=20N
  • T<30N
  • T>30N

Radio waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. WFNX broadcasts radio waves at a
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength, \lambda=2.94\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of radio waves is v=3\times 10^8\ m/s

Frequency of radio waves is f = 101,700,000 Hz

We need to find the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves. The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda

\lambda is wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{101,700,000}\\\\\lambda=2.94\ m

So, the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves is 2.94 m.

What combination of things happen on earth that helps make wind, and the weather on earth? (Please list at least two factors, an
Westkost [7]

Answer:

There are six main components, or parts, of weather. They are <u>temperature, atmospheric pressure, wind, humidity, precipitation, and cloudiness</u>. Together, these components describe the weather at any given time. These changing components, along with the knowledge of atmospheric processes, help meteorologists—scientists who study weather—forecast what the weather will be in the near future.

If the wavelength of an s-wave is 23,000 m, and its speed 4500 m/s, what is its frequency?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

5 metre.

Explanation:

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

= 23,000/ 4,500

= 5 metre.

morpeh [17]

The beat frequency is the concept required to develop this process. The phenomenon is generated when you have two waves but their frequencies do not differ greatly. So the beat frequency will be the difference between those two waves. For this case we have the difference and one of the waves, therefore,

F_b = |F_1-F_2|

Our values are given as,

F_b = 5Hz

F_1 = 1050Hz

Using the formula of the frequency I will have,

F_b = |F_1-F_2|

Replacing we have,

5 = |1050-F_2|

F_2 = 1050 \pm 5

F_2 = 1045,1055 Hz

The possible values are two: 1045Hz and 1055Hz
