Answer: The fundamental frequency of the slinky = 8Hz
An input frequency of 28 Hz will not create a standing wave
Explanation:
Let Fo = fundamental frequency
At third harmonic,
F = 3Fo
If F = 24Hz
24 = 3Fo
Fo = 24/3 = 8Hz
If an input frequency = 28 Hz at 3rd harmonic
Let find the fundamental frequency
28 = 3Fo
Fo = 28/3
Fo = 9.33333Hz
Since Fo isn't a whole number, it can't create a standing wave
Answer:
F = M a
W = M g equivalent equation to express weight of object of mass M
M = W / g = 2867 N / 9.8 m/s^2 = 292.6 kg
If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant speed AND its direction isn't changing, then its velocity is constant. Another way to say that is: Its acceleration is zero. Zero acceleration means zero NET force acting on the object, or a group of BALANCED forces acting on it, also called EQUILIBRIUM. The required answer is: YES.
If a real projectile is launched, the force of gravity acts on it vertically downward. There's no upward force acting on it to balance gravity. Therefore, the forces on the projectile are NOT balanced, there IS a net vertical force on it, and it's NOT in equilibrium. Too bad.
