Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram for each disc.

Disc A has three forces acting on it: 86.5 N up, T₁ down, and Wa down.

∑F = ma

86.5 N − T₁ − Wa = 0

Wa = 86.5 N − T₁

ma × 9.8 m/s² = 86.5 N − 55.6 N

ma = 3.2 kg

Disc B has three forces acting on it: T₁ up, T₂ down, and Wb down.

∑F = ma

T₁ − T₂ − Wb = 0

Wb = T₁ − T₂

mb × 9.8 m/s² = 55.6 N − 36.5 N

mb = 1.9 kg

Disc C has three forces acting on it: T₂ up, T₃ down, and Wc down.

∑F = ma

T₂ − T₃ − Wc = 0

Wc = T₂ − T₃

mc × 9.8 m/s² = 36.5 N − 9.6 N

mc = 2.7 kg

Disc D has two forces acting on it: T₃ up and Wd down.

∑F = ma

T₃ − Wd = 0

Wd = T₃

md × 9.8 m/s² = 9.6 N

md = 0.98 kg

If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

F = G m₁ M / r²

W = ∫ F. dr

W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

W = mg

m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

g_moom = 165 32/1000

.g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system

W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

W_capsule = 454 N

W = m_capsule g

m_capsule = W / g

m = 454 /9.8

m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327 7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

W = 1,307 10⁶ J

You wiggle a string,that is fixed to a wall at the other end, creating a sinusoidalwave with a frequency of 2.00 Hz and an ampli

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

$f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)$

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

$\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}$

$k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}$

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m$

b) Hence, the wave function is:

$f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)$

c) for x=3m you have:

$f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)$

d) the speed of the medium:

$\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)$

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

$v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)$

If the current in this circuit is 3 A, what must be the value of R3?<br><br><br>It's 5 Ω

Svetllana [295]

Explanation :

It is given that,

In the given figure all the three resistors are in series.

Current flowing in the circuit, $I=3\ A$

Voltage, $V=30\ V$

We know that in series circuit the current flowing in all resistors is same.

Using Ohm's law, we get:

$V=IR$

$30\ V=3\ A(2\ \Omega+3\ \Omega+R_3)$

$R_3=5\ \Omega$

Hence, this is the required solution.
