Answer:

15√2 N.

Explanation:

Given that the mass of the wet clothes is, m=3kg

Here in the figure ABC the weight is hung from the middle then the sides AC and BC are equal will make their adjacent angle equal and the other angle which is ∠ACB will become 90°.

Now according the figure the tension is apply in two direction than by free body diagram we can solve newton equations.

2Tcos\theta=mg\\T=\frac{mg}{2cos\theta}\\ T=\frac{3\times10}{2cos(45^{\circ})}\\ T=15\sqrt{2}N

Therefore, the total tension upon the clothesline is, T=15\sqrt{2}N

Answer:

Tension in string equals 14.715 Newtons

Explanation:

The situation is represented in the figure attached below:

For equilibrium of the clothes along y- axis we have

\sum F_{v}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 2Tcos(\theta )=W\\\\\therefore T=\frac{W}{2cos(\theta )}

Applying values we get

\sum F_{v}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 2Tcos(\theta )=W\\\\\therefore T=\frac{3\times 9.81}{2\times 1}=14.715N(\because cos(\theta )=\frac{3}{3}=1)

Which wave has a longer period and how many times, the wave with a frequency of 7000Hz or the wave with a frequency of 21.000Hz?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

I would say the answer is the wave of 21.000Hz

Explanation:

Because it has more frequency, and as more frequency you add, the time or longer period also increases.

A launched hopper reach to 1.20 m maximum height. How much is it’s launch velocity?
garri49 [273]

The launch velocity is 4.8 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the mechanical energy of the hopper (equal to the sum of the potential energy + the kinetic energy) is conserved. So we can write:

U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f

where:

U_i is the initial potential energy, at the bottom

K_i is the initial kinetic energy, at the bottom

U_f is the final potential energy, at the top

K_f is the final kinetic energy, at the top

We can rewrite the equation as:

mgh_i + \frac{1}{2}mu^2 = mgh_f + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where:

m is the mass of the hopper

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h_i = 0 is the initial height

u is the launch speed of the hopper

h_f = 1.20 m is the maximum altitude reached by the hopper

v = 0 is the final speed (which is zero when the hopper reaches the maximum height)

Solving the equation for u, we find the launch speed of the hopper:

u=\sqrt{2gh_g}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(1.20)}=4.8 m/s

A pendulum has 576 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
Natalka [10]
Ideally, 576 J  because energy is conserved.
In the real world, a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit less than 576 J ,
because we live in a world with friction and air resistance.
