Define and describe the following terms: amplitude, wavelength, frequency, period, tension.
maw [93]

Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object

What is a newton equal to in terms of units of mass and acceleration
artcher [175]

1 newton is the force needed to accelerate 1 kilogram of mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second² .

         1 N = 1 kg-m/s² .

It's a force equal to roughly  3.6 ounces.

A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward
kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C

In a game of pool, the cue ball moves at a speed of 2 m/s toward the eight ball. When the cue ball hits the eight ball, the cue
agasfer [191]

Answer:

a)  p₀ = 1.2 kg m / s,  b) p_f = 1.2 kg m / s,  c)   θ = 12.36, d)  v_{2f} = 1.278 m/s

Explanation:

a system formed by the two balls, which are isolated and the forces during the collision are internal, therefore the moment is conserved

a) the initial impulse is

        p₀ = m v₁₀ + 0

        p₀ = 0.6 2

        p₀ = 1.2 kg m / s

b) as the system is isolated, the moment is conserved so

       p_f = 1.2 kg m / s

we define a reference system where the x-axis coincides with the initial movement of the cue ball

we write the final moment for each axis

X axis

        p₀ₓ = 1.2 kg m / s

        p_{fx} = m v1f cos 20 + m v2f cos θ

        p₀ = p_f

       1.2 = 0.6 (-0.8) cos 20+ 0.6 v_{2f} cos θ

        1.2482 = v_{2f} cos θ

Y axis  

       p_{oy} = 0

       p_{fy} = m v_{1f} sin 20 + m v_{2f} cos θ

       0 = 0.6 (-0.8) sin 20 + 0.6 v_{2f} sin θ

       0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

we write our system of equations

        0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

        1.2482 = v_{2f} cos θ

divide to solve

        0.219 = tan θ

         θ = tan⁻¹ 0.21919

         θ = 12.36

let's look for speed

           0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

            v_{2f} = 0.2736 / sin 12.36

           v_{2f} = 1.278 m / s
