A truck is carrying a refrigerator as shown in the figure. The height of the refrigerator is 158.0 cm, the width is 60.0 cm. The

center of gravity of the refrigerator is 67.0 cm above the midpoint of the base.
What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator doesn't tip over? (The static friction between the truck and the refrigerator is very large.)

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

<h3>What will be the maximum acceleration of the truck to avoid tipping over?</h3>

The maximum acceleration is obtained by taking clockwise moments about the tipping point of rotation.

Clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Ft * 1.58 m = F * 0.67 m

where

Ft is tipping force = mass * acceleration, a
F is weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity, g

m * a * 1.58 = m * 9.81 * 0.67

a = 4.15 m/s²

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

In conclusion, the acceleration of the truck is found by taking moments about the tipping point.

A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?

LenaWriter [7]

During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)

A string that is 3.6 m long is tied between two posts and plucked. The string produces a wave that has a frequency of 320 Hz and

marin [14]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to wavelength depending on the frequency and speed. Mathematically, the wavelength can be expressed as

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

Where,

v = Velocity

f = Frequency,

Our values are given as

L = 3.6m

v= 192m/s

f= 320Hz

Replacing we have that

$\lambda = \frac{192}{320}$

$\lambda = 0.6m$

The total number of 'wavelengths' that will be in the string will be subject to the total length over the size of each of these undulations, that is,

$N = \frac{L}{\lambda}$

$N = \frac{3.6}{0.6}$

$N = 6$

Therefore the number of wavelengths of the wave fit on the string is 6.

A length of copper wire carries a current of 14 A, uniformly distributed through its cross section. The wire diameter is 2.5 mm,

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a. ρ $_\beta=1.996J/m^3$

b. $U_E=9.445x10^{-15} J/m^3$

Explanation:

a. To find the density of magnetic field given use the gauss law and the equation:

$i=14A$ , $d=2.5mm$ , $R=3.3$ Ω, $l=1 km$ , $E_o=8.85x10^{-12}F/m$ , $u_o=4*x10^{-7}H/m$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{\beta^2}{2*u_o}$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{1}{2*u_o}*(\frac{u_o*i^2}{2\pi *r})^2$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{u_o*i^2}{8\pi*r}=\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}H/m*(14A)^2}{8\pi*(1.25x10^{-3}m)^2}$

ρ $_\beta=1.996J/m^3$

b. The electric field can be find using the equation:

$U_E=\frac{1}{2}*E_o*E^2$

$E=(\frac{i*R}{l})^2$

$U_E=\frac{1}{2}*8.85x10^{-12}*(\frac{14A*3.3}{1000m})^2$

$U_E=9.445x10^{-15} J/m^3$

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

the question is wrong

Explanation:

M is not given
after 9 second the acceleration multiply by the time divided by two then multiplied by the time is equal to 4 meter
