A refrigerator is being pulled up a ramp with a horizontal force P, which acts at the top corner. The refrigerator has a mass of

75 kg, acting through point G. The ramp is inclined at 20º, and the coefficient of static friction is 0.3 between the refrigerator and the ramp.
(a) Find the force P required to move the refrigerator.
(b) Does the refrigerator tip or slide?

Answer:

(a) P = 459.055 N.

(b) the refrigerator tips.

Explanation:

Given, the angle of ramp is 20°.

When the weight of refrigerator is resolved in directions parallel and perpendicular to ramp, 75×g×sin(20°) and 75×g×cos(20°).

⇒ normal contact force is 75×g×cos(20°).

⇒ frictional force is 0.3×75×g×cos(20°) = 207.414 N

so, total opposite force is 207.414 + 75×g×sin(20°) = 459.055 N.

so, the force needed is P = 459.055 N

And as the moment due to both opposite force and P force are in same direction the refrigerator tips rather than just sliding.

A.

We’ll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.

B.

We won’t see the bell move, but we’ll hear it ring.

C.

We’ll see the bell move and hear it ring.

D.

We won’t see the bell move or hear it ring.

E.

We’ll see the sound waves exit the vacuum pump.

Explanation:

so, the answer to the question is

A.

We'll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.

The speed of sound is 346 m/s. If a sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 Hz, what would its wavelength be?​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

6.29 meters.

Explanation:

, where v is the speed of wave and f is the frequency of wave.

We are given that ,

The speed of sound is 346 m/s.

i..e v=346 m/s

A sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 H.

i..e f=55

the wavelength would be 6.29 meters.
