Cousin Throckmorton is playing with the clothesline. One end of the clothesline is attached to a vertical post. Throcky holds th

e other end loosely in his hand, so that the speed of waves on the clothesline is a relatively slow 0.700 m/s . He finds several frequencies at which he can oscillate his end of the clothesline so that a light clothespin 40.0 cm from the post doesn't move. What are these frequencies?

Answer:

The  frequencies are  f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the wave is  v  =  0.700 \  m/s

   The  length of vibrating  clothesline is  L  =  40.0 \  cm = 0.4 \ m

Generally the fundamental frequency is  mathematically represented as

        f =  \frac{v}{2 L  }

=>     f =  \frac{ 0.700 }{2 *  0.4   }

=>     f =  0.875 \  Hz

Now  this other frequencies of vibration experience by the clotheslines are know as harmonics and they are obtained by integer multiple of  the fundamental frequency

So  

   The  frequencies are mathematically represented as

       f_n  =  n  * f

=>     f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Where  n  =  1, 2, 3 ....

Mary walked north from her home to Sheila's home, which is 4.0 kilometers away. Then she turned right and walked another 3.0 kil
bixtya [17]
The answer is speed: 4.7 km/h, velocity: 3.3 km/h.

Distances and time are given:
d1 =  4 km
d2 = 3 km
d3 = 5 km
t = 1.5 h

The speed can be expressed as a distance (d) divided by time (t). The average speed (s) is total distance travelled divided by time:
s = (d1 + d2)/t = (4+3)/1.5 = 7/1.5 = 4.7 km/h

The average velocity (v) is total displacement (d₁) from the starting point divided by time. Since Mary's starting point was home, and she walked to the supermarket, which is 5.0 kilometers from her own home, her displacement is 5 km:
v = d₁/t = 5/1.5 = 3.3 km/h

A man pulls a sled at a constant velocity across a horizontal snow surface. if a force of 80 n is being applied to the sled rope
balandron [24]
A constant velocity implies the two forces must be equal and opposite.
Friction acts horizontal to the ground, therefore we must find the force applied to the sled rope that acts horizontal to the ground.
Do this by resolving:
Force = 80cos53
The force opposing this is equal, and so also = 80cos53 = 48 N (2 sig. fig.)

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity
dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.

A 50 Ohm resistance causes a current of 5 milliamps to flow through a circuit connected to a battery. What is the power in the c
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:0.00125 watts

Explanation:

resistance=50 ohms

Current=5 milliamps

Current=5/1000 milliamps

Current =0.005 amps

power=(current)^2 x (resistance)

Power=(0.005)^2 x 50

Power=0.005 x 0.005 x 50

Power=0.00125 watts
