A string is attached to a vibrating machine that has a frequency of 120 Hz. The other end of the string is passed over a pulley

of negligible mass and friction and is attached to a weight hanger which holds a mass m=0.5kg. What is the tension in newtons?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of vibration is 120Hz

The mass of object attached is 0.5kg.

We want to find the tension In the string

The tension in the string is the weight of the object, it is how much gravity is pulling the object to the centre of the earth

Using newton second law.

F_net = m•a_y

The body is not accelerating the y-direction, then, a_y = 0

F_net = 0

Force acting on the string is the weight of the object and the tension in the string

T - W = 0

T = W

Where weight is mass × gravity

W = mg

Then,

T = W = mg

T = mg = 0.5 × 9.81

T = 4.905 N

The tension in the string is 4.905 N

erik [133]

Answer:

F = 120 N

Explanation:

Force x distance = energy

The bike has energy 1/2 . 80 . 6^2   = 1440 J

You are looking at an example of not reading the question properly.

Impulse = Force . time  = change in momentum

F . 4  = 80 .6

F = 120 N

You find it takes 200 N of horizontal force tomove an unloaded pickup truck along a level road at a speed of2.4 m/s. You then lo
IgorC [24]

ANSWER:

F(h)= 230 N is the horizontal force you will need to move the pickup along the same road at the same speed.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

F(h) is Horizontal Force = 200 N

V is Speed = 2.4 m/s

The total weight increase by 42%

coefficient of rolling friction decrease by 19%

Since the velocity is constant so acceleration is zero; a=0

Now the horizontal force required to move the pickup is equal to the frictional force.

F(h) = F(f)

F(h) = mg* u

m is mass

g is gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

200 = mg*u

Since weight increases by 42% and friction coefficient decreases by 19%

New weight = 1+0.42 = 1.42 = (1.42*m*g)

New friction coefficient = μ = 1 - 0.19 = 0.81 = 0.81 u

F(h) = (0.81μ) (1.42 m g)

       = (0.81) (1.42) (μ m g)

       = (0.81) (1.42) (200)

       = 230 N

An electric dipole consisting of charges of magnitude 1.70 nC separated by 6.80 μm is in an electric field of strength 1160 N/C.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m     and  ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Explanation:

The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance

                        p = 2 a q

With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges

                        p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶

                        p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m

 

The potential energie dipole  is described by the expression

                       U = - p E cos θ

Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line

Orientation parallel to the field

                      θ = 0º

                      U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0

                      U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

Antiparallel orientation

                       θ = 180º

                      cos 180 = -1

                      U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies

                         ΔU = | U1 -U2 |

                         ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)

                         ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Three quarterbacks challenged each other to a throwing competition. They want to see who can throw the ball the furthest. What S
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Meter

Explanation:

The competition between the three quarterbacks is with respect to how far the ball would be thrown by each person, which is the distance covered by the ball. The thrown ball is an example of projectile, which would move over a certain distance.

With respect to the measure to be used in the competition, the appropriate SI unit is meter. This is the measure of length or distance covered.

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?
strojnjashka [21]
I know that its not the second law. I'm almost positive its the first one. Please let me know if I'm wrong. This sentence makes no sense when you put it with the third law. So, the first law is my guess...
