The corresponding downward force on the top of a horizontal square is 375 lb.in

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area. It is represented as

Pressure p = Force/Area

If the atmospheric pressure is 15 lb/in and  area 5 inches on each side is

A = 5² = 25  in²

The force applied is

15 lb/in = F /25 in²

F = 375 lb.in

Hence, the corresponding downward force on the top of a horizontal square is 375 lb.in

3. Una cuerda de guitarra tiene 60 cm de longitud y una masa de 0.05 kg de masa. Si se tensiona mediante una fuerza de 20 N. La
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

f1 = 12.90 Hz

Explanation:

To calculate the first harmonic frequency you use the following formula for n = 1:

f_n=\frac{n}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{M/L}}

f_1=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{M/L}}    ( 1 )

It is necessary that the unist are in meters, then you have:

L: length of the string = 60cm = 0.6m

M: mass of the string = 0.05kg

T: tension on the string = 20 N

you replace the values of L, M and T in the expression (1) for getting f1:

f_1=\frac{1}{2(0.6m)}\sqrt{\frac{20N}{0.05kg/0.6m}}=12.90\ Hz

Hence, the first harmonic has a frequency of 12.90 Hz

A small boat is moving at a velocity of 3.35m/s when it is accelerated by a river current perpendicular to the initial direction
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

 v =7.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

u = 3.35 m/s

t= 5 s

a= 0.75 m/s²

The final velocity = v

We know v = u +at

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

Now by putting the values in the above equation

v = 3.35 + 0.75 x 5 m/s

v =7.1 m/s

Therefore the final velocity will be 7.1 m/s

Two satellites A and B orbit the Earth in the same plane. Their masses are 5 m and 7 m, respectively, and their radii 4 r and 7
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of A = 5 m

Mass of B = 7 m

Radius of A = 4 r

Radius of B = 7 r

The orbital speed of satellite A,

v_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}......(I)

The orbital speed of satellite B,

v_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}......(I)

We need to calculate the ratio of their orbital speeds

Using equation (I) and (II)

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{G\times5m\times7r}{G\times7m\times4r}}

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Hence, The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.
