G = 10 N/kg or 10 m/s2
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) U_{g} = 40\,J, b) \eta = 70\,\%, c) v = 20\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The initial potential energy is:

U_{g} = (0.2\,kg)\cdot \left(10\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (20\,m)

U_{g} = 40\,J

b) The efficiency of the bounce is:

\eta = \left(\frac{14\,m}{20\,m} \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta = 70\,\%

c) The final speed of Danielle right before reaching the bottom of the hill is determined from the Principle of Energy Conservation:

K = U_{g}

U_{g} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot U_{g}}{m} }

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (40\,J)}{0.2\,kg} }

v = 20\,\frac{m}{s}

A box is moved 2m across the floor with a force of 16n. How much work was done?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 Work done on the box = 32 J

Explanation:

Work done = Force x Displacement.

Force applied on the box = 16 N

Displacement of box = 2 meter.

Work done on the box = Force applied on the box x  Displacement of box

                                       = 16 x 2 = 32 Nm = 32 J

Work done on the box = 32 J

For a home sound system, two small speakers are located so that one is 52 cm closer to the listener than the other. For what val
Veseljchak [2.6K]

We want a sound wave with a wavelength of 0.52 meters or a natural fraction thereof. We'll work in MKS.

w = 0.52/n

That's length.  We have speed 344 meters/second so w corresponds to a frequency of

f = 344 / w = n (344/.52)

f = 661.5 n  Hertz

I don't really agree with how they're saying it, but all the fundamental talk is probably trying to tell us n=1,

Answer: 661.5 Hertz

Any multiple of that will also produce constructive interference; we can go to about n=30 before we're out of the audio range.
