Let the vector position of the object in the (x-y) plane be 
\vec{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j}

The applied force is
\vec{f} = -12.5 \hat{i}


By definition, the applied torque is
\vec{T} = \vec{r} \times \vec{f} = (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j}) \times (-12.5y \hat{i}) = 12.5\hat{k}

Answer: 12.5y \, \hat{k}

A microphone is located on the line connecting two speakers that are 0.513 m apart and oscillating in phase. The microphone is 1
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

frequency 1 = 334.30 Hz

frequency 2 = 1002.92 Hz

Explanation:

Given data

speaker distance y = 0.513 m

microphone distance D = 1.80 m

to find out

lowest two frequencies

solution

we know velocity of sound is 343 m/s

so we consider point x

so at 1st speaker distance from x   = D + (y/2)

1st speaker distance from x   = 1.80 + (0.513/2) = 2.0565 m   .....1

and

at 2nd speaker distance from x   = D - (y/2)

2nd speaker distance from x   = 1.80 - (0.513/2) = 1.5435 m     .........2

so destructive interference from 1 and 2  we know

1st - 2nd = ( m + 0.5 ) wavelength

2.0565 m - 1.5435 m = (  0+ 0.5) wavelength

wavelength  = 1.026 m

so here 1st min frequency will be

frequency 1 = velocity of sound / wavelength

frequency 1 = 343 / 1.026 =334.30 Hz

and

2nd  min frequency will be

frequency 2 =

2.0565 m - 1.5435 m = (  1 + 0.5) wavelength

wavelength  = 0.342 m

frequency 2 =  velocity of sound / wavelength

frequency 2 = 343 / 0.342 = 1002.92 Hz

A 174 pound Jimmy Cheek is riding on a 54 ft diameter Ferris Wheel. The normal force on Jimmy Cheek is 146 pounds when Jimmy is
Veronika [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of Forces, the centripetal Force and Newton's second law.

I will also attach a free body diagram that allows a better understanding of the problem.

For there to be a balance between weight and normal strength, these two must be equivalent to the centripetal Force, therefore

F_c = W-N

m\omega^2r = W-N

Here,

m = Net mass

\omega= Angular velocity

r = Radius

W = Weight

N = Normal Force

m\omega^2r = 174-146

The net mass is equivalent to

F = mg \rightarrow m = \frac{F}{g}

Then,

m = \frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2}

Replacing we have then,

(\frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2})\omega^2 (54ft) =174lb-146lb

Solving to find the angular velocity we have,

\omega = 0.309rad/s

Therefore the angular velocity is 0.309rad/s
