<span>In physics, a surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media, usually as a gravity wave between two fluids with different densities. A surface wave can also be an elastic (or a seismic) wave, such as with a Rayleigh or Love wave.

A block of weight 1200N is on an incline plane of 30° with the horizontal, a force P is applied to the body parallel to the plan
pshichka [43]

Answer:

a)  P = 807.85 N,  b)  P = 392.15 N,  c)  P = 444.12 N

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.

Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight

         sin θ = Wₓ / W

         cos θ = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin θ

         W_y = W cos θ

         Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N

          W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N

Y axis  

      N- W_y = 0

      N = W_y = 1039.23 N

Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement

a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static

       P -Wₓ -fr = 0

       P = Wₓ + fr

as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic

      fr = μ N

      fr = 0.20 1039.23

      fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

       P = 600+ 207.85

       P = 807.85 N

b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static

        P + fr -Wx = 0

       fr = μ N

       fr = 0.20 1039.23

        fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

        P =  Wₓ -fr

        P = 600 - 207,846

        P = 392.15 N

c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic

         P - Wₓ + fr = 0

         P = Wₓ - fr

         fr = 0.15 1039.23

         fr = 155.88 N

         P = 600 - 155.88

         P = 444.12 N

Water cycle
tatuchka [14]
Type into google: " water cycle" and this comes up.... put it in to your own words. This is very easy.


the cycle of processes by which water circulates between the earth's oceans, atmosphere, and land, involving precipitation as rain and snow, drainage in streams and rivers, and return to the atmosphere by evaporation and transpiration.

Kelli weighs 425 N, and she is sitting on a playground swing that hangs 0.36 m above the ground. Her mom pulls the swing back an
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

V = 3.54 m/s

Explanation:

Using the conservation of energy:

E_i = E_f

so:

wh = \frac{1}{2}mV^2

where w is te weigh of kelly, h the distance that kelly decends, m is the mass of kelly and V the velocity in the lowest position.

So, the mass of kelly is:

m = 425N/9.8 = 43.36 Kg

and h is:

h = 1m-0.36m =0.64m

then, replacing values, we get:

(425N)(0.64m) = \frac{1}{2}(43.36kg)v^2

Solving for v:

V = 3.54 m/s

The values of these two forces are equal. Your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you. When you and the Earth fall toward each other, your acceleration is greater than the Earth's acceleration, because your mass is less than the Earth's mass.
