On a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. max

pulls on the sled with 12 n of force, directed at an angle of 15° above the ground. when he comes to a recently plowed section of road, he continues to pull the sled with the same force across the road while the road exerts a frictional force of 4 n on sled. what is the net work done on the sled while max pulls it 5 m across the road?

Work done by a given force is given by

W = F.d

here on sled two forces will do work

1. Applied force by Max

2. Frictional force due to ground

Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement

work done by Max = W_1 = Fdcos\theta

W_1 = 12*5cos15

W_1 = 57.96 J

Now similarly work done by frictional force

W_2 = Fdcos\theta

W_2 = 4*5cos180

W_2= -20 J

Now total work done on sled

W_{net}= W_1 + W2

W_{net} = 57.96 - 20 = 37.96 J

Estimate frequency of vibration of your arm. Let the length of the arm be 0.57 m. Consider the arm as a simple pendulum and assu
skad [1K]

Answer:

0.80865 Hz

1.23662 seconds

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

l = Length of arm = 0.57 m

Length of simple pendulum is given by

L=\dfrac{2}{3}l\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 0.57\\\Rightarrow L=0.38\ m

The frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{L}}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{9.81}{0.38}}\\\Rightarrow f=0.80865\ Hz

The frequency is 0.80865 Hz

The time period is given by

T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{1}{0.80865}\\\Rightarrow T=1.23662\ s

The time period is 1.23662 seconds

25. Explain why the speed of sound is faster in solids than in gases. Include two other factors Chapter 17 says the speed of sou
aksik [14]
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.
