A large truck loaded with scrap Stella weights 14 metric tons and is traveling north on the interstate heading for Chicago. It h

as been averaging 48km/h for the journey and has traveled over the 1450 km so far. It has just stopped to refuel. What is its current momentum?

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Now that the truck, including its load of Stella, has stopped to refuel,
its speed relative to the pump is zero.  So its momentum, relative to
the pump and everything else motionless with respect to the ground,
is

       (14,000 kg) x (0)  =  zero .

A mule is harnessed to a sled having a mass of 246 kg, including supplies. The mule must exert a force exceeding 1210 N at an an
zimovet [89]

(a) 1800 N

The equation of the forces along the vertical direction is:

F sin \theta + N - mg = 0

where

F sin \theta is the component of the applied force along the vertical direction

N is the normal force on the sled

mg is the weight of the sled

Substituting:

F = 1210 N

m = 246 kg

\theta = 30.3^{\circ}

We find N:

N=mg-F sin \theta = (246)(9.8)-(1210)(sin 30.3^{\circ})=1800 N

(b) 0.580

The equation of the forces along the horizontal direction is:

F cos \theta - \mu_s N = 0

where

F cos \theta is the horizontal component of the push applied by the mule

\mu_s N is the static frictional force

Substituting:

F = 1210 N

N = 1800 N

\theta = 30.3^{\circ}

We find \mu_s, the coefficient of static friction:

\mu_s = \frac{F cos \theta}{N}=\frac{(1210)(cos 30.3^{\circ})}{1800}=0.580

(c) 522 N

In this case, the force exerted by the mule is

F= 6.05 \cdot 10^2 N = 605 N

So now the equation of the forces along the horizontal direction can be written as

F cos \theta - F_f = 0

where

\theta=30.3^{\circ}

and F_f is the new frictional force, which is different from part (b) (because the value of the force of friction ranges from zero to the maximum value \mu N, depending on how much force is applied in the opposite direction)

Solving the equation,

F_f = F cos \theta = (605)(cos 30.3^{\circ})=522 N

Two waves have the same frequency. What other characteristic must be the same for these waves?.
madreJ [45]

The wave characteristic that is the same for both waves is wavelength.

  • Two waves with the same frequency will also have the same wavelength, amplitude, speed, and period. When two waves are travelling at the same frequency, it denotes that their duration and amplitude are also the same.
  • When two waves of the same frequency and amplitude interfere constructively, their peaks and troughs align as shown in diagram A above. As a result, the original waves' amplitude is doubled, resulting in a sound wave that is twice as loud.

Thus, Equal frequencies are shared by two waves moving through the same region in the same direction.
