Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) = 9/3 = <em>3 m/s²</em> .

His mass makes no difference.

The value of the force, F₀, at equilibrium is equal to the horizontal

component of the tension in string 2.

Response:

The value of F₀ so that string 1 remains vertical is approximately <u>0.377·M·g</u>

<h3>How can the equilibrium of forces be used to find the value of F₀?</h3>

Given:

The weight of the rod = The sum of the vertical forces in the strings

Therefore;

M·g = T₂·cos(37°) + T₁

The weight of the rod is at the middle.

Taking moment about point (2) gives;

M·g × L = T₁ × 2·L

Therefore;

$T_1 = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}$

Which gives;

$M \cdot g = \mathbf{T_2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})+ \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}$

$T_2 = \dfrac{M \cdot g - \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}{cos(37 ^{\circ})} = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}}}$

F₀ = T₂·sin(37°)

Which gives;

$F_0 = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot sin(37 ^{\circ})}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}} = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot tan(37 ^{\circ})}{2} \approx \mathbf{0.377 \cdot M \cdot g}$

F₀ ≈ <u>0.377·M·g</u>

A piano wire with mass 2.60g and length 84.0 cm is stretched with a tension of 25.0 N. A wave with frequency 120.0 Hz and amplit

likoan [24]

Answer:

Power will be 0.2023 watt

And when amplitude is halved then power will be 0.0505 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass of the Piano wire m = 2.60 gram = 0.0026 kg

Length of wire l = 84 cm = 0.84 m

So mass density $\mu =\frac{m}{l}=\frac{0.0026}{0.84}=0.0031kg/m$

Tension in the wire T = 25 N

Frequency f = 120 Hz

So angular frequency $\omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 120=753.6rad/sec$

And amplitude A = 1.6 mm = 0.0016 m

We have to find the generated power

Power is given by $P=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\mu T}\omega ^2A^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \sqrt{0.0031\times 25}\times 753.6^2\times 0.0016^2=0.2023watt$

From the relation we can see that power $P\ \propto\ A^2$

So if amplitude is halved then power will be $\frac{1}{4}$ times

So power will be equal to $\frac{0.2023}{2}=0.0505watt$

What is the device used to detect and measure current?

dybincka [34]

The Ammeter is used to detect and measure current or amperage. Also a more common tool now used is a multimeter that detects and measures voltage, current, and resistance.

Any questions please just ask. Thank you.

hichkok12 [17]

The toast at this setting will always be the same color because the toaster uses a compensating thermostat. Depending on the setting, the compensating thermostat will be used to regulate the heat settings at different amounts of time. In one setting, the compensating thermostat could go on for much longer than the other setting before shutting off.

what evidence can you cite that the interstellar medium contains both gas and dust? (select all that apply.)

Basile [38]

(a) The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the radiations of photons of wavelength 21 cm.

(b) The gas of interstellar medium can be detected from the absorption lines present in the light from distant stars, which must be caused by a medium of density and temperature other than that of the stars emitting the lights.

<h3>What is interstellar medium?</h3>
