Which direction (toward the sun/away from the sun) is the North Pole pointing when it is summer for the Southern Hemisphere?

1 answer:

5 0

The Seasons. When the North Pole tilts most toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere experiences summer. This occurs when the Earth is farthest away from the sun, and begins around June 21-22. ... This brings about winter in the Southern Hemisphere, called the Winter Solstice.

Find the first three harmonics of a string of linear mass density 2. 00 g/m and length 0. 600 m when the tension in it is 50. 0

gavmur [86]

The first three harmonics of the string are 131.8 Hz, 263.6 Hz and 395.4 Hz.

<h3>Velocity of the wave</h3>

The velocity of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = √T/μ

where;

T is tension
μ is mass per unit length = 2 g/m = 0.002 kg/m

v = √(50/0.002)

v = 158.1 m/s

<h3>First harmonic or fundamental frequency of the wave</h3>

f₀ = v/λ

where;

λ is the wavelength = 2L

f₀ = v/2L

f₀ = 158.1/(2 x 0.6)

f₀ = 131.8 Hz

<h3>Second harmonic of the wave</h3>

f₁ = 2f₀

f₁ = 2(131.8 Hz)

f₁ = 263.6 Hz

<h3>Third harmonic of the wave</h3>

f₂ = 3f₀

f₂ = 3(131.8 Hz)

f₂ = 395.4 Hz

Thus, the first three harmonics of the string are 131.8 Hz, 263.6 Hz and 395.4 Hz.

Each blade of a fan has a radius of 11 inches. If the fan’s rate of turn is 1440o /sec, find the following. (a) The angular spee

notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) 24.43 radians per second

b) 268.73 inches per second

Explanation:

a) The angular speed of the fan on Celsius degrees/second is 1400, so we should convert that value to radians using the fact that 2π rad = 360 °C:

$\omega = 1400\frac{C}{s}=1400\frac{C}{s}*\frac{2\pi\,rad}{360\,C}$

$\omega = 1400\frac{C}{s}=24.43\frac{rad}{s}$

b) Linear speed on a point of the blade is related with angular speed of the fan by the equation

$v=\omega r$

with v linear speed, ω angular speed and r the radius of the blades. So:

$v=(24.43\frac{rad}{s})(11 in)$

Radians isn't really a unity; it is dimensionless so we can put it or not. So:

$v=268.73\frac{in}{s}$

A 1300 kg car traveling with a speed of 3.5 m/s executes a turn with a 8.5 m radius of curvature.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1.4 m/s/s (2.s.f)

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:

$a=\frac{v^{2} }{r}$ , where v is velocity and r is the radius.

In the question we are given the information that the car has a mass of 1300kg, a velocity of 2.5m/s, and a turn radius of 8.5m which are all the values we need. Therefore we can simply substitute in the values to solve the question:

$a=\frac{3.5^{2} }{8.5} \\a=1.4$

Therefore the centripetal acceleration of the car is 1.4m/s/s. (2.s.f)

Hope this helped!
