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

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The work done on the athlete is approximately 2.09 J

Explanation:

From the definition of the work done by a variable force:

\displaystyle{\int_{x_i}^{x_j}F(x)dx}

and substituting with the function of our problem:

\displaystyle{\int_{0}^{0.19}(140x-190x^2)dx\approx2.09\mathrm{J}}

If a cup of coffee has temperature 95∘C95∘C in a room where the temperature is 20∘C,20∘C, then, according to Newton's Law of Coo
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

T = 76.39°C

Explanation:

given,

coffee cup temperature = 95°C

Room temperature= 20°C

expression

T( t ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}

temperature at t = 0

T( 0 ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-0}{50}}

T(0) = 95°C

temperature after half hour of cooling

T( t ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}

t = 30 minutes

T( 30 ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-30}{50}}

T( 30 ) = 20 + 75 \times 0.5488

T(30) = 61.16° C

average of first half hour will be equal to

T = \dfrac{1}{30-0}\int_0^30(20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}})\ dt

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20t - \dfrac{75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}}{\dfrac{1}{50}})]_0^30

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20t - 3750e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}]_0^30

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20\times 30 - 3750 e^{\dfrac{-30}{50}} + 3750]

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[600 - 2058.04 + 3750]

T = 76.39°C

Which statement is true about gravitational forces?
Readme [11.4K]
Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (<span>Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . . 

</span>\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}
<span>
Hope this helps.
