Answer:

The disturbance of molecules are perpendicular to wave motion

Explanation:

Transverse waves: in transverse waves all the medium moles vibrates perpendicular to the wave motion such that the net displacement of all molecules are zero.

While in longitudinal waves all the molecules will oscillate in the direction of wave propagation. All molecules transfer the energy from one point to other point while oscillating parallel to the wave propagation direction.

A 60 kg acrobat is in the middle of a 10 m long tightrope. The center of the rope dropped 30 cm in relation to the ends that are
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The tension in each half of the rope, is approximately 4,908.8 N

Explanation:

The mass of the acrobat, m = 60 kg

The length of the rope, l = 10 m

The extent by which the center dropped = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Let, 'T' represent the tension in each half of the rope

Weight, W = Mass, m × The acceleration due to gravity, g

∴ W = m × g

The acceleration due to gravity, g ≈ 9.8 m/s²

∴ The weight of the acrobat, W = 60 kg × 9.8 m/s² ≈ 588 N

The angle the dropped rope makes with the horizontal, θ is given as follows;

θ = arctan((0.3 m)/(5 m)) = arctan(0.06) ≈ 3.434°

At equilibrium, the sum of vertical forces, \Sigma F_y = 0

The vertical component of the tension, T_y, in each half of the rope is given as follows;

T_y = T × sin(θ)

∴ \Sigma F_y = W + T × sin(θ) + T × sin(θ) = W + 2 × T × sin(θ)

Plugging in the values, with θ = arctan(0.06) for accuracy, we get;

588 N + 2 × T × sin(arctan(0.06) = 0

∴ 2 × -T × sin(arctan(0.06) = 588 N

-T= 588 N/(2 × sin(arctan(0.06)) = 4,908.81208 N ≈ 4,908.8 N

The tension in each half of the rope, T ≈ 4,908.8 N.

Acceleration increases over time once a force is applied to the object. Determine the acceleration at 3.5 sec? A) 3 m/s2 B) 6 m/
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: Acceleration does not increase over time once a force is applied to the object. It depends on the force and the object's mass. If those don't change, then the acceleration is constant.

Explanation:. F = M • a

We don't know either of those numbers, so we can't answer the question.

A man pushes on a piano with mass 190 kgkg ; it slides at constant velocity down a ramp that is inclined at 18.0 ∘∘ above the ho
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The magnitude of applied force,parallel to the incline is 575.38 N and parallel to the floor is 605 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the piano (m) = 190 kg

Inclined angle (\theta) = 18 degree

Considering gravity, g = 9.8 ms^-^2

And

Using, sin(18) =0.30 and cos(18)=0.95

<em>FBD diagram is attached with all the force acting on the floor and and the inclined. </em>

We have to find the magnitude of forces,when the man pushes it parallel to the incline and to the floor.

a.

When the man pushes it parallel to the incline.

Balancing the forces as  \sum F=0 .

⇒ F+mgsin(\theta) =0

⇒ F=-mgsin(\theta)

⇒ Here it is negative as the force is acting downward.

⇒ Plugging the values of mass (m) and angle (\theta) .

⇒ F=190\times 9.8\times sin(18)

⇒ F=575.38 N

b.

When the force is parallel to the floor.

⇒ Fcos(\theta)=mgsin(\theta)

⇒ F=\frac{mgsin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ F=\frac{190\times 9.8\times sin(18)}{cos(18)}

⇒ F=605 N

So,

The magnitude of applied force in inclined direction is 575.38 Newton and parallel to the floor is 605 N.
