Monarch butterflies can sustain air speeds of 4.8 m/s while migrating. A certain monarch wants to fly to a location due east 4.7

km away. A steady 2.4 m/s breeze is blowing from the west to the east. How long will it take the monarch to make the trip to the location to the east?

Derive a relation between time period anf frequency of a wave
Elza [17]

Answer:

The relation between frequency and time period is given by:

f = 1/T

Explanation:

In a wave motion, the particle move about the mean position with the passage of time. The particles rise to reach the highest point which is crest, and similarly falls to reach the lowest point which is trough. The cycle keeps on repeating.

The time period of the wave can be defined as the time taken to complete one such cycle. Time period is given by:

T = 2π/ω

Frequency can be defined as the number of cycles completed in unit time, which can be taken as the inverse of time period. frequency is given by

f = ω/2π

or

f = 1/T

A lamp can work on 50V mains taking 2 amps. What value of resistance must be connected in series with it, so that it can be oper
wolverine [178]
The resistance of the lamp is apparently  50V/2A  =  25 ohms.

When the circuit is fed with more than 50V, we want to add
another resistor in series with the 25-ohm lamp so that the
current through the combination will be 2A.

In order for 200V to cause 2A of current, the total resistance
must be      200V/2A = 100 ohms.

The lamp provides 25 ohms, so we want to add another 75 ohms 
in series with the lamp.  Then the total resistance of the circuit is
(75 + 25) = 100 ohms, and the current is 200V/100 ohms = 2 Amps.

The power delivered by the 200V mains is (200V) x (2A) = 400 watts.

The lamp dissipates ( I² · R ) = (2² · 25 ohms) = 100 watts.

The extra resistor dissipates  ( I² · R) = (2² · 75 ohms) = 300 watts.

Together, they add up to the 400 watts delivered by the mains.

CAUTION:
300 watts is an awful lot of power for a resistor to dissipate !
Those little striped jobbies can't do it. 
It has to be a special 'power resistor'. 
300 watts is even an unusually big power resistor.
If this story actually happened, it would be cheaper, easier,
and safer to get three more of the same kind of lamp, and
connect THOSE in series for 100 ohms.  Then at least the
power would all be going to provide some light, and not just
wasted to heat the room with a big moose resistor that's too
hot to touch.

Force exerted by the bullet = mass * acceleration = 0.013 * 850 = 11.05 Newtons.

the rifle exerts same force in opposite direction so we have

11.05 = 3.5 * a
acceleration = 11.05 / 3.5 =  3.16 m /s^-2

a 10.0 kg sphere is released from rest in an ocean. as it falls, the water applies a resistive force r
dimaraw [331]

The calculated coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.33125.'

The rate of kinetic friction the friction force to normal force ratio experienced by a body moving on a dry, uneven surface is known as k. The friction coefficient is the ratio of the normal force pressing two surfaces together to the frictional force preventing motion between them. Typically, it is represented by the Greek letter mu (). In terms of math, is equal to F/N, where F stands for frictional force and N for normal force.

given mass of the block=10 kg

spring constant k= 2250 Nm

now according to principal of conservation of energy we observe,

the energy possessed by the block initially is reduced by the friction between the points B and C and rest is used up in work done by the spring.

mgh= μ (mgl) +1/2 kx²

10 x 10 x 3= μ(600) +(1125) (0.09)

μ(600) =300 - 101.25

μ = 198.75÷600

μ =0.33125

The complete question is- A 10.0−kg block is released from rest at point A in Fig The track is frictionless except for the portion between point B and C, which has a length of 6.00m the block travels down the track, hits a spring of force constant 2250N/m, and compresses the spring 0.300m form its equilibrium position before coming to rest momentarily. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough surface between point Band (C)

What is work - energy theorem ??​
Elden [556K]

The work-energy theorem explains the idea that the net work - the total work done by all the forces combined - done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object. After the net force is removed (no more work is being done) the object's total energy is altered as a result of the work that was done.

This idea is expressed in the following equation:

is the total work done

is the change in kinetic energy

is the final kinetic energy

is the initial kinetic energy
