Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the angular velocity is constant.

The actual weight is W = 549N

The ride apparent weight is

W' = 1.5N

Apparent weight at the top of the ride?

Using newton second law of motion

ΣF = m•ar

ar is the radial acceleration

N — W = —m•ar

N = W —m•ar

N = mg —m•ar

N = m(g—ar)

The apparent weight is equal to the normal

W'(top) = N = m(g—ar)

W'(top) = m(g—ar)

W'(top) = mg —m•ar

We know that the actual weight is

W=mg

Also, the apparent weight is

W' = m•ar

Then

W'(top) = Actual weight - apparent

W'(top) = 549—1.5

W'(top) = 547.5 N

In a discussion person A is talking 1.2 dB louder than person B, and person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A. What is th
liberstina [14]

Answer: 3.84dB

Explanation:

Since person A is talking 1.2dB louder than B, we will have

A = 1.2B... (1)

Similarly, person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A, we have

C = 3.2A... (2)

From equation 1, B = A/1.2... (3)

To get the ratio of the sound intensity of person C to the sound intensity of person B, we will divide equation 2 by 3 to give

C/B = 3.2A/{A/1.2}

C/B = 3.2A×1.2/A

C/B = 3.2×1.2

C/B = 3.84dB

If wavelength and speed of a wave are 4 m and 332 m/s respectively, calculate its frequency<br>​
Furkat [3]

Explanation:

<em>Given </em>

<em>wavelength </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>m</em>

<em>speed </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>m/</em><em>s</em>

<em>frequency </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>?</em>

<em>We </em><em>know </em><em>we </em><em>have </em><em>the </em><em>formula </em>

<em>wavelength</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>speed </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>frequency </em>

<em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>frequency </em>

<em>frequency </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em>/</em><em>4</em>

<em>Therefore </em><em> </em><em>frequency </em><em>is </em><em>8</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>Hertz </em><em>.</em>

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 2.5 kV and then moves perpendicularly through a uniform 0.60
Bumek [7]

Answer:

1.2cm

Explanation:

V=(2ev/m)^1/2

=(2*1.6*10^19 x2500/ 1.67*10^27)^1/2

=6.2x10^5m/s

Radius of resulting path= MV/qB

= 1.67*10^-27x6.92*10^6/1.6*10^-16 x0.6

=0.012m

=1.2cm
