A crane lifts a 1,750 kg mass using a steel cable whose mass per unit length is 0.88 kg/m. What is the speed of transverse waves

on this cable?

Answer:

139.6m/s

Explanation:

Calculate the tension first, T=m*g

mass(m): 1750kg, gravity(g): 9.8m/s^2

T= 1750*9.8

=17150N

Then calculate the wave speed using the equation v = √ (T/μ)

v= √(17150N)/(0.88kg/m)

=139.6m/s

A person kicks a ball, giving it an initial velocity of 20.0 m/s up a wooden ramp. When the ball reaches the top, it becomes air

Bess [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

initial velocity of the ball = 20 m/s

angle of ramp = 22°

ball travel at a distance = 5 m

a) for friction less

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 - mgh$

$v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$

$v = \sqrt{u^2- 2 g h cos 22^0}$

$v = \sqrt{20^2- 2\times 9.8 \times 5 cos 22^0 }$

v = 17.58 m/s

b) considering the friction

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 - mgh-\mu_kmgl$

$v^2 = u^2 - 2gh-2\mu_kmgl$

$v = \sqrt{u^2- 2 g h cos 22^0-2\mu_kgl}$

$v = \sqrt{20^2- 2\times 9.8 \times 5 cos 22^0-2\times 0.15\times 9.8 \times 5 }$

v = 17.16 m/s

Your brother is insisting that you’ll never hear a sound produced behind a barrier wall at the end of your yard you notice that

Tresset [83]

Answer

D.Diffraction

Explanation

Diffraction is a property that is experienced by waves when they come across a barrier when they are in motion.

The ways tends to curve behind the barrier. This is called diffraction of waves.

Now, sound is a wave and it also experience diffraction. . So the brother will be able to hear the sound due to diffraction

NEWTONS SECOND LAW LAB REPORT

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

Explanation:

here this may help.
