Answer:

Maximum acceleration of the truck is 5.25 m/s^2

Explanation:

To find the maximum acceleration the truck first we need to calculate friction between truck and wood. Because of wood is not moving, coefficient of c_{s} need to be used for it. Then the formula will be:

F_{s}=c_{s}*200*9.8*cos(20)\\F_{s}=0.9*200*9.8*0.94\\F_{s}=1657.62

1657.62 Newton is the friction.

So force against friction need to be at most 1657.62 N. Then equation will be:

F_{s}=F_{a}+F_{m}\\1657.62=200*9.8*sin(20)+200*a*cos(20)\\1657.62=670.36+187.94*a\\987.26=187.94*a\\a=5.25

Maximum acceleration of the truck need to be 5.25 m/s^2

The energy of a photon of light is __________ proportional to its frequency and __________ proportional to its wavelength.
icang [17]

Answer:

D) directly, inversely

Explanation:

The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

Wavelength is the is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave.

 Mathematically, frequency is related to wavelength and velocity using;

             Energy   =  h x f

                      where h is the Planck's constant

                                  f is the frequency

         

                   Since c  = f ∧

where f is the frequency of the wave

           ∧ is the wavelength of the wave

           c is the speed of light

So;

                 f  = c/∧

  Therefore;

                E  = \frac{h c}{wavelength}

From the equation, we see an inverse relationship between E and wavelength and a direct one with frequency.

A uniform string of length 0.50 m is fixed at both ends. Find the
kozerog [31]

Answer:

configuration of string:

Node - Antinode - Node    or N-A-N

This is 1/2 wavelength since a full wavelength is N-A-N-A-N

f (fundamental) = V / wavelength

F0 = 300 m/s / 1 m = 100 / sec

F1 = 300 m/s / .5 m = 600 / sec

Each increase is a multiple of the fundamental since the wavelength

increases by 1/2 wavelength to keep nodes at both ends of the string

A solid 200-g block of lead and a solid 200-g block of copper are completely submerged in an aquarium filled with water. Each bl
finlep [7]

Answer:

B. The buoyant force on the copper block is greater than the buoyant force on the lead block.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of lead block, m₁ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

mass of copper block, m₂ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

density of water, ρ = 1 g/cm³

density of lead block, ρ₁ = 11.34 g/cm³

density of copper block, ρ₂ = 8.96 g/cm³

The buoyant force on each block is calculated as;

F_B = mg(\frac{density \ of \ fluid}{density \ of \ object} )

The buoyant force of lead block;

F_{lead} = 0.2*9.8(\frac{1}{11.34} )\\\\F_{lead} = 0.173  \ N

The buoyant force of copper block

F_{copper} = 0.2*9.8(\frac{1}{8.96})\\\\F_{copper} = 0.219  \ N

Therefore, the buoyant force on the copper block is greater than the buoyant force on the lead block
