Answer:

Our answer will be 4 hours.

Explanation:

It takes 24 hours to complete a circle(360° rotation)

Hence to complete 1/6th of complete circle it will take 24/6= 4 hours

Exact in integers= 4 hrs. Hence our answer will be 4 hours.

calculate the value of net force acting on given body?5N acting towards right & 15N force acting towards left on the brick.(
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The net force acting on the body is 10N directed to the left.

Explanation:

   Magnitude of force to the right = 5N

   Magnitude of force to the left  = 15N

Net force acting on the object and in what direction;

Solution:

It is the vector sum of all forces acting on a body. This net force is the single force that will replace the forces acting on a body;

  For the problem;

   Net force  = Force to the left + Force to the right

 Let us take left to be negative and right to be positive;

    Force to the left  = -15N

    Net force  = -15N + 5N  = -10N

The net force acting on the body is 10N directed to the left.

You wiggle a string,that is fixed to a wall at the other end, creating a sinusoidalwave with a frequency of 2.00 Hz and an ampli
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}

k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m

b) Hence, the wave function is:

f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)

c) for x=3m you have:

f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)

d) the speed of the medium:

\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)
