b. 460.8 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between the speed of the wave along the string, the length of the string and the frequency of the note is

$f=\frac{v}{2L}$

where v is the speed of the wave, L is the length of the string and f is the frequency. Re-arranging the equation and substituting the data of the problem (L=0.90 m and f=256 Hz), we can find v:

$v=2Lf=2(0.90 m)(256 Hz)=460.8 m/s$

c. 18,000 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed of the wave, distance travelled and time taken is

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

v = 6,000 m/s is the speed of the wave

d = ? is the distance travelled

t = 3 s is the time taken

Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers into it, we find:

$d=vt=(6,000 m/s)(3 s)=18,000 m$

vodomira [7]

What you know:
Vi=0m/s
Vf=143.8m/s
A=-9.8m/s
d=???
Use the equation Vf^2=Vi^2+2A(d)
Rearrange to isolate d: d=Vf^2/2A
d=(143.8)^2/2(-9.8)
d=20678.4/-19.6
d=-1055m
The tank was released from a height of 1055m

As a stands, her entire weight is momentarily placed on the heels of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted on th

Lena [83]

Answer:

Pressure will be $6072449.952Pa$

Explanation:

We have given mass of the women m = 65 kg

Radius of the heels r = 0.578 cm = 0.00578 m

We have to find the pressure

We know that pressure is given by

$P=\frac{F}{A}=\frac{mg}{A}$

So force F = mg = 65×9.8 = 637 N

Area $A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.00578^2=1.049\times 10^{-4}m^2$

So pressure $p=\frac{637}{1.049\times 10^{-4}}=6072449.952Pa$

5. A construction worker on a high-rise building is on a platform suspended between two cables as illustrated below. The constru

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a) Tc = 750 [N] ;b) See the explanation below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.

The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.

In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:

- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0

Tc = 750 [N]

An electric car is being designed to have an average power output of 4,600 W for 2 h before needing to be recharged. (Assume the

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

a)3312 x 10⁴ J

b)I = 57.5 A

c)9200 W

Explanation:

Given that

P =4600 W

Time t= 2 h = 2 x 3600 s= 7200 s

We know that

1 W = 1 J/s

Energy stored in the battery = P .t

=4600 x 7200 J

=3312 x 10⁴ J

We know that power P given as

P = V .I

V=Voltage ,I =Current

4600 = 80 x I

I = 57.5 A

The energy supplied = 4600 x 2 = 9200 W

a light ray traveling in air enters a second medium and its speed slows to 1.71 × 10^8 meters per second. what is the absolute i

givi [52]

The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75
