Fiona drives 18 meters east and 24 meters south. What is the magnitude of her displacement?

1 answer:

alexira [117]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

30.0 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance between her initial position and her final position.

In this case, it's the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by the east and south distances.

x² = (18)² + (24)²

x = 30.0

The data table shows how the amplitude of a mechanical wave varies with the energy it carries. Analyze the data to identify the

Maslowich

The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.

<h3>What is the relationship between energy and amplitude?</h3>

There is direct relationship between energy of the wave and the amplitude of the wave. The energy transported by a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave. This means if energy is increase the amplitude of wave becomes double and vice versa.

Energy = (amplitude)2

So we can conclude that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.

Two kids are playing on a newly installed slide, which is 3 m long. John, whose mass is 30 kg, slides down into William (20 kg),

yuradex [85]

Answer:

$v=3.564\ m.s^{-1}$

$\Delta v =2.16\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of John, $m_J=30\ kg$

mass of William, $m_W=30\ kg$

length of slide, $l=3\ m$

(A)

height between John and William, $h=1.8\ m$

<u>Using the equation of motion:</u>

$v_J^2=u_J^2+2 (g.sin\theta).l$

where:

v_J = final velocity of John at the end of the slide

u_J = initial velocity of John at the top of the slide = 0

Now putting respective :

$v_J^2=0^2+2\times (9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3})\times 3$

$v_J=5.94\ m.s^{-1}$

<u>Now using the law of conservation of momentum at the bottom of the slide:</u>

<em>Sum of initial momentum of kids before & after collision must be equal.</em>

$m_J.v_J+m_w.v_w=(m_J+m_w).v$

where: v = velocity with which they move together after collision

$30\times 5.94+0=(30+20)v$

$v=3.564\ m.s^{-1}$ is the velocity with which they leave the slide.

(B)

frictional force due to mud, $f=105\ N$

<u>Now we find the force along the slide due to the body weight:</u>

$F=m_J.g.sin\theta$

$F=30\times 9.8\times \frac{1.8}{3}$

$F=176.4\ N$

<em><u>Hence the net force along the slide:</u></em>

$F_R=71.4\ N$

<em>Now the acceleration of John:</em>

$a_j=\frac{F_R}{m_J}$

$a_j=\frac{71.4}{30}$

$a_j=2.38\ m.s^{-2}$

<u>Now the new velocity:</u>

$v_J_n^2=u_J^2+2.(a_j).l$

$v_J_n^2=0^2+2\times 2.38\times 3$

$v_J_n=3.78\ m.s^{-1}$

Hence the new velocity is slower by

$\Delta v =(v_J-v_J_n)$

$\Delta v =5.94-3.78= 2.16\ m.s^{-1}$

A 0.12 kg body undergoes simple harmonic motion of amplitude 8.5 cm and period 0.20 s. (a) What is themagnitude of the maximum f

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 0.12 kg

Amplitude ,A= 8.5 cm

time period ,T = 0.2 s

We know that

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}$

${\omega}=\dfrac{2\pi }{0.2}\ rad/s$

${\omega}=31.41\ rad/s$

We know that

${\omega}^2=m\ K$

K=Spring constant

$K=\dfrac{\omega^2}{m}$

$K=\dfrac{31.41^2}{0.12}\ N/m$

K=8221.56 N/m

The maximum force F

F= K A

F= 8221.56 x 0.085 N

F=698.83 N

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m
