You did 150 joules of work lifting a 120-newton backpack.

Physics

NNADVOKAT [17]4 years ago

In the given question, we already know
Work done = 150 joules
Force = 120 Newton
Now we know from the study of physics that
Distance (D) = Work done / Force
(a) To find the height upto which the backpack has been lifted,
D = Work done / Force
   = 150 / 120
   = 15 / 12
   = 5 / 4
   = 1.25
So the backpack was lifted to a height of 1.25 metres.
(b) Now we have the find the weight of the backpack in pounds
We know that 1 pound = 4.448 Newton
So if
4.448 Newton = 1 pound
Then
120 Newton = (120 / 4.448) pounds
                   = 26.978 pounds
So the backpack weighed 26.98 pounds.

A race car was is moving at a constant speed of 35 m/s. A security car was
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Final speed of security car v = 65 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of race car u1 = 35m/s

Speed of security car u2 = 5 m/s

Acceleration = 5 m/s²

Find:

Final speed of security car v

Computation:

Assume, they chase S meter

So

S = u1t + [1/2]at²

S = 35t

S = u2t + [1/2]at²

so,

35t = 5t +  [1/2](5)t²

t = 12 s

So

v = u + at

v = 5 + 5(12)

Final speed of security car v = 65 m/s

the speed of a train is decreased in a uniform rate from 96 km/h to 48km/h through a distance of 800m. calculate the distance co
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

1066.67 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 96 km/h = 26.67 m/s

v = 48 km/h = 13.33 m/s

Δx = 800 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(13.33 m/s)² = (26.67 m/s)² + 2a (800 m)

a = -0.333 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 26.67 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -0.333 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (26.67 m/s)² + 2 (-0.333 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 1066.67 m

Round as needed.

a standing wave in a pipe with both ends open has a frequency of 348. hz. the next higher harmonic has a frequency of 522. hz.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

A pipe open at both ends would have an antinode at each end and its length would be λ/ 2

The next such points would be λ and 3 λ / 2

The ratio of 522 / 348 is 1.5 so the harmonic at 348 is one wavelength and the next harmonic is 3 λ / 2 at 1 1/2 wavelengths

348 hz would occur at one wavelength

f λ = v = f L       where the length of the pipe is one wavelength

if we use 331 as the speed of sound then

L = 331 / 348 = .95 m for the length of the pipe
