Answer:
Mass, m = 26.54kg
Explanation:
Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.
Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;
Where;
- Fapp is the applied force
- Fg is the force due to gravitation
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Net force, Fnet = 345
Acceleration, a = 3.2m/s²
<u>To find mass;</u>
Fnet = Fapp + Fg
Fnet = ma + mg
Fnet = m(a+g)
m = Fnet/(a+g)
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8m/s²
Substituting into the equation, we have;
m = 345/(3.2 + 9.8)
m = 345/13
Mass, m = 26.54kg
Answer:
The compass will indicate a turn to the left.
Explanation:
The magnetic compass has a needle pointing towards north. It is used for navigation and it shows direction with respect to the geographical cardinal direction.
As we move to the right of the northerly heading in northern Hemisphere, the direction of needle will move towards left but with a faster rate as now the direction of north is no his left.
This shows the compass if following its direction properly.
Answer: d. I or II
Explanation: A traveling wave has speed that depends on characteristics of a medium. Characteristics like linear density (μ), which is defined as mass per length.
Tension or Force (
) is also related to the speed of a moving wave.
The relationship between tension and linear density and speed is ginve by the formula:

So, for the traveling waves generated on a string fixed at both ends described above, ways to increase wave speed would be:
1) Increase Tension and maintaining mass and length constant;
2) Longer string will decrease linear density, which will increase wave speed, due to their inversely proportional relationship;
Then, ways to increase the wave speed is
I. Using the same string but increasing tension
II. Using a longer string with the same μ and T.
