You have just landed on Planet X. You take out a ball of mass 101 g , release it from rest from a height of 16.0 m and measure t
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

0.3817 N

Explanation:

Remark

One thing is certain: the ball has a mass of 101 grams wherever it is in the universe. That is not true of the force. The force on the moon is a whole lot less than it is on earth, and maybe planet x as well.

Givens

m = 101 g

vi = 0       That's what at rest means.

t = 2.91 s

d = 16 m

F= ?

Formulas

d = vi*t + 1/2*a * t^2

Force = m * a

Solution

16 = 0 + 1/2 a * 2.91^2

16 = 4.234 a                       Divide by 4.234

16/4.234 = a

a = 3.779

F = m * a

a = 3.779

m = 101 g = 1 kg / 1000 grams

m = 0.101 kg

F = 0.101 * 3.779

F = 0.3817N

Which of the following wavelengths will produce standing waves on a string that is 3.5 m long?
denpristay [2]

In a string of length L, the wavelength of the n-th harmonic of the standing wave produced in the string is given by:

\lambda=\frac{2}{n} L


The length of the string in this problem is L=3.5 m, therefore the wavelength of the 1st harmonic of the standing wave is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{1} \cdot 3.5 m=7.0 m


The wavelength of the 2nd harmonic is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{2} \cdot 3.5 m=3.5 m


The wavelength of the 4th harmonic is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{4} \cdot 3.5 m=1.75 m


It is not possible to find any integer n such that \lambda=5 m, therefore the correct options are A, B and D.
