Answer:

\frac{3}{8} inches

Explanation:

the variations in riser height or tread depth should not be grater than \frac{3}{8} inches that is equal to 9.5 mm but the maximum riser height should be the  \frac{81}{4} inch  but variation in riser height should not exceed to \frac{3}{8} inches. The minimum riser height should be 7 inches which is equal to the 178 mm

Which statement BEST explains why the specific heat of water is higher than the specific heat of most other substances?
solniwko [45]
Due to its polarity and hydrogen bonding water can absorb heat without a significant temperature change.. The high specific heat of water helps regulate the rate at which air changes temperature, which is why the temperature change between seasons is gradual instead of sudden, especially near the oceans.

When two sticks are laid end-to-end they cover a length of 8.32 feet. One stick is 2.93 ft longer than the other. What is the le
77julia77 [94]

To solve this problem we will start by defining the length of the shortest stick as 'x'. And the magnitude of the longest stick, according to the statement as

x+2.93

Both cover a magnitude of 8.32 ft, therefore

x +(x+2.97) = 8.32

Now solving for x we have,

x + (x + 2.93) = 8.32

2x + 2.93 = 8.32

2x = 8.32 - 2.93

x = \frac{ 8.32 - 2.93}{2}

x = 2.695 ft

Therefore the shorter stick is 2.695ft long.

A young kid of mass m = 36 kg is swinging on a swing. The length from the top of the swing set to the seat is L = 3.5 m. The boy
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy=36 kg

length of swing=3.5 m

Let T be the tension in the swing

At top point mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

where v=velocity needed to complete circular path

Th-resold velocity is given by mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{9.8\times 3.5}=5.85 m/s

So apparent weight of boy will be zero at top when it travels with a velocity of v=\sqrt{gr}

To get the velocity at bottom conserve energy at Top and bottom

At top E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}

Energy at Bottom E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}

Comparing two as energy is conserved

v_0^2=4gl+gl

v_0^2=5gL

v_0=\sqrt{5gL}=13.09 m/s

Apparent weight at bottom is given by

W=\frac{mv_0^2}{L}-mg=\frac{36\times 13.09^2}{3.5}+36\times 9.8=2115.23 N

A weight suspended from a spring is seen to bob up and down over a total distance of 20 centimeters twice each second.
Zielflug [23.3K]

<u>Answer</u>

8. 2 Hz

9. 0.5 seconds

10. 20 cm


<u>Explanation</u>

<u>Q 8</u>

Frequency is the number of oscillation in a unit time. It is the rate at which something repeats itself in a second.

In this case, the spring bob up and down 2 times per second.

∴ Frequency = 2 Hz

<u>Q 9</u>

Period is the time taken to complete one oscillation.

2 oscillations takes 1 second

1 oscillation = 1/2 seconds.

∴ Period = 0.5 seconds


<u>Q 10</u>

Amplitude is the the maximum displacement of the spring.

In this case the spring bob up 20 cm. This is it's displacement.

∴ Amplitude = 20 cm
