Answer:
In this case, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction that the pulse moves. This type of wave is a longitudinal wave.
Answer:
20.42 N/m
Explanation:
From hook's law,
F = ke ......................... Equation 1
Where F = Force applied to the spring., k = spring constant, e = extension.
Make k the subject of the equation,
k = F/e ................. Equation 2
Note: The force on the spring is equal to the weight of the mass hung on it.
F = W = mg.
k = mg/e................ Equation 3
Given: m = 250 g = 0.25 kg, e = 37-25 = 12 cm = 0.12 m.
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 3
k = (0.25×9.8)/0.12
k = 20.42 N/m.
Hence the spring constant = 20.42 N/m
Air pressure is the weight of air on an area. The weight of air
is due to the gravitational forces between the Earth and the
molecules of its atmosphere.
Answer:0.58 m
Explanation:
The initial velocity of the ball is u = 2.0 m/s
The height of the table is, h = 1.0 m
The ball falls in vertical direction under acceleration due to gravity.
Time taken for ball to hit the floor:
h= ut + 0.5gt² ( from the equation of motion)
1.0 m=2.0 m/s × t+0.5 × 9.8 m/s²× t²
Solving this for t,
t = 0.29 s ( we have neglected the negative value of t)
In the same time, the ball would cover a horizontal distance of :
s = u t
⇒s = 2.0 m/s×0.29 s = 0.58 m
Thus, the landing spot is 0.58 m away from the table.
