Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Kinetic energy varies jointly as mass and square of velocity

$K.E.\propto m$

$K.E.\propto v^2$

$K.E.=kmv^2$

for $m=15 gm\ and\ v=3 cm/s$

$K.E.=27 ergs$

$27=k(15)(3)^2 -----1$

for $m=5 gm, v=9 cm/s$

$K.E.=k(5)(9)^2----2$

Divide 1 & 2 we get

$\frac{27}{K.E.}=\frac{15\times 3^2}{5\times 9^2}$

$K.E.=81 ergs$

A wave has a wavelength of 5m and frequency of 5 Hz. What is the speed of the wave?

Anna71 [15]

If you multiply m (the unit for wavelength) with 1s (the unit for frequency), you will get m/s, the unit for speed. Now multiply! 25 m/s is your final answer!

g In 1956, Frank Lloyd Wright proposed the construction of a mile-high building in Chicago. Suppose the building had been constr

Lorico [155]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to acceleration due to gravity, as well as Newton's second law that describes the weight based on its mass and the acceleration of the celestial body on which it depends.

In other words the acceleration can be described as

$a = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

Where

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius of Earth

This equation can be differentiated with respect to the radius of change, that is

$\frac{da}{dr} = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}$

$da = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr$

At the same time since Newton's second law we know that:

$F_w = ma$

Where,

m = mass

a =Acceleration

From the previous value given for acceleration we have to

$F_W = m (\frac{GM}{r^2} ) = 600N$

Finally to find the change in weight it is necessary to differentiate the Force with respect to the acceleration, then:

$dF_W = mda$

$dF_W = m(-2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr)$

$dF_W = -2(m\frac{GM}{r^2})(\frac{dr}{r})$

$dF_W = -2F_W(\frac{dr}{r})$

But we know that the total weight (F_W) is equivalent to 600N, and that the change during each mile in kilometers is 1.6km or 1600m therefore:

$dF_W = -2(600)(\frac{1.6*10^3}{6.37*10^6})$

$dF_W = -0.3N$

Therefore there is a weight loss of 0.3N every kilometer.

A 0.500-kg stone is moving in a vertical circular path attached to a string that is 75.0 cm long. The stone is moving around the

Semenov [28]

Answer:

B. 7.07 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the stone when it leaves the circular path is its tangential velocity, $v$ , which is given by

$v=\omega r$

where $\omega$ is the angular speed and $r$ is the radius of the circular path.

$\omega$ is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f$

where $f$ is the frequency of revolution.

Thus

$v=2\pi fr$

Using values from the question,

$v=2\pi\times 1.50\times0.75$

<em>Note the conversion of 75 cm to 0.75 m</em>

$v=2\times3.14\times 1.50\times0.75 = 9.42\times0.75 = 7.065=7.07$
