The crystal in a digital watch oscillates at a rate of 215 Hz. If the maximum displacement of one crystal face (measured from on
Marizza181 [45]

The maximum speed of the face is determined as 6.75 x 10⁻⁵ m/s.

<h3>Maximum speed of the face</h3>

v = fλ

where;

  • f is frequency of the wave
  • λ is the wavelength

<h3>Angular speed of the wave</h3>

ω = 2πf

v(max) = ωA

v(max) = 2πfA

where;

  • A is amplitude of the wave

v(max)  = 2π(215)(50 x 10⁻⁹ m)

v(max) = 6.75 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Thus, the maximum speed of the face is determined as 6.75 x 10⁻⁵ m/s.

This is for my tennis Class<br> What differences did you find between racquest ball and tennis?
Maru [420]

Answer:

Tennis Rackets are Typically Bigger Than Racquetball Rackets. Tennis rackets can be up to 29 inches long, with most between 27-29 inches. Racquetball rackets cannot exceed 22 inches according to game rules. ... Having a larger racket in tennis gives you more surface area to return the ball with power and accuracy.

On a vacation flight, you look out the window of the jet and wonder about the forces exerted on the window. Suppose the air outs
user100 [1]

Answer:

A) \Delta P =  14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa

B) F = 1632.65 N

Explanation:

Given details

outside air speed is given as v_2 = 150 m/s

since inside air is atmospheric , v_1 = 0 m/s

a) By using bernoulli equation between outside and inside of flight

P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho[ v_2^2 -v_1^2]

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} 1.29 [ 150^2 - 0^2]

\Delta P =  14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa

b) force exerted on window

Area of window  = 25\times 45 = 1125 cm^2 = 0.1125 m^2

We know that force is given as

F = P\times A

F = 14512.5 \times 0.1125

F = 1632.65 N

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a 1-kilogram substance by 1°C is known as the
den301095 [7]

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a 1-kilogram substance by 1°C is known as the specific heat of the substance.

the formula for specific heat of a substance is given as

c = Q/(m ΔT)

where Q = Heat required to change the temperature by 1°C

m = mass of the substance

ΔT = change in temperature.

the units of specific heat is given as Joules/(kilogram °C)
