A packing crate is sitting at rest on an inclined loading ramp. How does the magnitude of the force of static friction compare t

o the other forces acting on the crate?

As a crate is resting on the inclined surface of the ramp we have following forces on the crate

1. Weight of the crate vertically downwards

2. Normal force due to ramp perpendicular to the surface

3. static friction force along the ramp upwards

so here we know that crate is at rest

so we can say that

normal force is balanced by component of weight of crate

so we have

N = mg cos\theta

also we can say that friction force is balanced by another component of weight of the crate

F_f = mg sin\theta

so friction force is less than the weight of the crate and it will act opposite to it

A balloon filled with helium gas at 1.00 atm occupies 15.6 L. Will the volume of the balloon increase or decrease in the upper a
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The volume of the balloon increases in the upper atmosphere.

Explanation:

p1= 1 atm

p2= 0.15 atm

V1= 15.6 L

V2= ?

p1*V1= p2 * V2

V2= (p1/p2)*V1

V2= 104 L

Two identical loudspeakers are some distance apart. A person stands 5.80 m from one speaker and 3.90 m from the other. What is t
NikAS [45]

Answer:

f = 632 Hz

Explanation:

As we know that for destructive interference the path difference from two loud speakers must be equal to the odd multiple of half of the wavelength

here we know that

\Delta x = (2n + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}

given that path difference from two loud speakers is given as

\Delta x = 5.80 m - 3.90 m

\Delta x = 1.90 m

now we know that it will have fourth lowest frequency at which destructive interference will occurs

so here we have

\Delta x = 1.90 = \frac{7\lambda}{2}

\lambda = \frac{2 \times 1.90}{7}

\lambda = 0.54 m

now for frequency we know that

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{343}{0.54} = 632 Hz

A hydraulic turbine is used to generate power by using the water in a dam. The elevation difference between the free surfaces up
Serjik [45]

Answer:

0.906

Explanation:

Let g = 9.81 m/s2. We can calculate the rate of change in potential energy when m = 201kg of water is falling down a distance of h = 131m per second

\dot{E_p} = \dot{m}gh = 201*9.81*131 = 258307 J/s (W) = 258.307 kW

So the efficiency of the water turbine is the ratio of output power over input power:

\frac{234}{258.307} = 0.906
