If pulse travels on a taut string, it may or may not invert upon reflection because it is one that tends to depends on the place the wave reflects.

Hence, If reflecting is obtained from a less dense string, the reflected part of the wave will tend to be from be right side up. A wave inverts if only it reflects off via a means in which the wave speed is said to be smaller.

<h3>When a wave pulse on a string reflects?</h3>

If a pulse on string is said to show or reflects from free end, the outcome of the resultant pulse is said to be made in such a way that the said slope of string is seen at free end is zero.

Therefore, If pulse travels on a taut string, it may or may not invert upon reflection because it is one that tends to depends on the place the wave reflects. If reflecting is obtained from a less dense string, the reflected part of the wave will tend to be from be right side up. A wave inverts if only it reflects off via a means in which the wave speed is said to be smaller.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to gravity as an expression of a celestial body, as well as the use of concepts such as centripetal acceleration, angular velocity and period.

PART A) The expression to find the acceleration of the earth due to the gravity of another celestial body as the Moon is given by the equation

$g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

d = Distance

M = Mass

$R_{CM} =$ Radius earth center of mass

PART B) Using the same expression previously defined we can find the acceleration of the moon on the earth like this,

$g = \frac{GM}{(d-R_{CM})^2}$

$g = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(7.35*10^{22})}{(3.84*10^8-4700*10^3)^2}$

$g = 3.4*10^{-5}m/s^2$

PART C) Centripetal acceleration can be found throughout the period and angular velocity, that is

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}$

At the same time we have that centripetal acceleration is given as

$a_c = \omega^2 r$

Replacing

$a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{T})^2 r$

$a_c = (\frac{2\pi}{26.3d(\frac{86400s}{1days})})^2 (4700*10^3m)$

$a_c = 3.34*10^{-5}m/s^2$

Explanation:

Net force = (internal pressure - external pressure)× area of window

Net force = (1.02 - 0.910)atm × 2.03m × 2.03m = 0.11atm × 4.1209m^2 = 0.11 × 101325N/m^2 × 4.1209m^2 = 45930.52N

Find the acceleration a body whose velocity increases from 11m/s to 33m/s in 10 seconds

solong [7]

Answer:

1.1 m/(s)^2

Explanation:

u=11 m/s

v=33 m/s

t=10s

v=u+at

=> 33=22+(a)(10)

=> 33-22=10a

=> 10a=11

=> a=11/10=1.1 m/(s)^2

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The solution and the explanation are in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

According to the diagram that is in the attached image, the EFFORT force at point A and the load is at O point. The torque due to weight is:

TA = W * (a * cosθ)

The torque due to effort at C point is:

TC = E * (b * cosθ)

The net torque is equal to 0, we have:

Tnet = 0

W * (a * cosθ) - E * (b * cosθ) = 0

$E=W\frac{a}{b}$

From the figure, you can observe that a/b < 1, thus E < W
