First, let us derive our working equation. We all know that pressure is the force exerted on an area of space. In equation, that would be: P = F/A. From Newton's Law of Second Motion, force is equal to the product of mass and gravity: F = mg. So, we can substitute F to the first equation so that it becomes, P = mg/A. Now, pressure can also be determined as the force exerted by a fluid on an area. This fluid can be measure in terms of volume. Relating volume and mass, we use the parameter of density: ρ = m/V. Simplifying further in terms of height, Volume is the product of the cross-sectional area and the height. So, V = A*h. The working equation will then be derived to be:

P = ρgh

This type of pressure is called the hydrostatic pressure, the pressure exerted by the fluid over a known height. Next, we find the literature data of the density of seawater. From studies, seawater has a density ranging from 1,020 to 1,030 kg/m³. Let's just use 1,020 kg/m³. Substituting the values and making sure that the units are consistent:

P = (1,020 kg/m³)(9.81 m/s²)(11 km)*(1,000 m/1km)
P = 110,068,200 Pa or 110.07 MPa

You have a two-wheel trailer that you pull behind your ATV. Two children with a combined mass of 77.2 kg hop on board for a ride
lions [1.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of motion and Hook's law.

By Hook's law we know that force is defined as,

F= kx

Where,

k = spring constant

x = Displacement change

PART A) For the case of the spring constant we can use the above equation and clear k so that

k= \frac{F}{x}

k = \frac{mg}{x}

k= \frac{77.2*9.8}{0.0637}

k = 11876.92N/m

Therefore the spring constant for each one is 11876.92/2 = 5933.46N/m

PART B) In the case of speed we can obtain it through the period, which is given by

T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}

Re-arrange to find \omega,

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{2.14}

\omega = 2.93rad/s

Then through angular kinematic equations where angular velocity is given as a function of mass and spring constant we have to

\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m}

m = \frac{k}{\omega^2}

m = \frac{ 11876.92}{2.93}

m = 4093.55Kg

Therefore the mass of the trailer is 4093.55Kg

PART C) The frequency by definition is inversely to the period therefore

f = \frac{1}{T}

f = \frac{1}{2.14}

f = 0.4672 Hz

Therefore the frequency of the oscillation is 0.4672 Hz

PART D) The time it takes to make the route 10 times would be 10 times the period, that is

t_T = 10*T

t_T = 10 *2.14s

t_T = 21.4s

Therefore the total time it takes for the trailer to bounce up and down 10 times is 21.4s

A force can give a certain mass a certain acceleration. if i double the force and double the mass, the acceleration of this obje
leva [86]

The acceleration of this item will remain constant if I double the force and double the mass.

<h3>What does acceleration mean ?</h3><h3 />

The rate at which a moving object's speed and direction change over time. When something moves faster or slower, it is considered to be accelerating. Motion on a circle accelerates even while the speed is constant because the direction is always changing.

  • If an object is accelerating and moving in the appropriate direction, it has positive acceleration. The speeding automobile in the first scenario showed positive acceleration. The car is moving forward and accelerating in the same direction as the acceleration.

If Fg=mg solve for g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:Fg = mg however newtons second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to it's mass times it's acceleration so what allows us to say that Fg = mg because certainly not for every single situation the net force is going to equal to the force of gravity please explain... what allows us to say Fg = mg

What Molecules can be found in the interstellar medium? A. Water, Carbon dioxide, and Hydrogen. B. Oxygen, Nitrogen and ammonia.
Masteriza [31]
The interstellar medium is the matter as well as the radiations that are found in the galaxies occupying the spaces between the star systems.
Interstellar medium is mainly composed of hydrogen that is followed by helium and trace amounts of nitrogen, oxygen and carbon (considered traces when compared to amount of hydrogen).

Therefor, the right choice is:

An organ pipe open at both ends has a length of 0.80 m. If the velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s, what is the frequency of the
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

the frequency of the second harmonic of the pipe is 425 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the open pipe, L = 0.8 m

velocity of sound, v = 340 m/s

The wavelength of the second harmonic is calculated as follows;

L = A ---> N   +  N--->N   +   N--->A

where;

L is the length of the pipe in the second harmonic

A represents antinode of the wave

N represents the node of the wave

L = \frac{\lambda}{4} + \frac{\lambda}{2} + \frac{\lambda}{4} \\\\L = \lambda

The frequency is calculated as follows;

F_1 = \frac{V}{\lambda} = \frac{340}{0.8} = 425 \ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the second harmonic of the pipe is 425 Hz.
