a 74.9 kg person sits at rest on an icy pond holding a physics book. he throws the physics book west at 8.25 m/s and he recoils

Answer:

1.95 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

0 = (74.9) (-0.215) + m (8.25)

m = 1.95

A piano wire with mass 2.60g and length 84.0 cm is stretched with a tension of 25.0 N. A wave with frequency 120.0 Hz and amplit

likoan [24]

Answer:

Power will be 0.2023 watt

And when amplitude is halved then power will be 0.0505 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass of the Piano wire m = 2.60 gram = 0.0026 kg

Length of wire l = 84 cm = 0.84 m

So mass density $\mu =\frac{m}{l}=\frac{0.0026}{0.84}=0.0031kg/m$

Tension in the wire T = 25 N

Frequency f = 120 Hz

So angular frequency $\omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 120=753.6rad/sec$

And amplitude A = 1.6 mm = 0.0016 m

We have to find the generated power

Power is given by $P=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\mu T}\omega ^2A^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \sqrt{0.0031\times 25}\times 753.6^2\times 0.0016^2=0.2023watt$

From the relation we can see that power $P\ \propto\ A^2$

So if amplitude is halved then power will be $\frac{1}{4}$ times

So power will be equal to $\frac{0.2023}{2}=0.0505watt$

a mars prototype carrying scientific instruments has a mass of 1060kg. a net force of 52000 n is applied to this roverat a test

choli [55]

F = 52000 N

m = 1060 kg

a= F/m = 52000 N/1060 kg = 49.0566 m/s^2

A light bulb, a fan, and a tiny speaker are connected to a battery in a series circuit. How will the circuit behave if it is ope

kakasveta [241]

If the circuit is open, then there will be no light or sound. No current will flow and no air will move.
