Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev

en at the top of the circle!). If your arm is 0.65 m long (from shoulder to fist) and the distance from the handle to the surface of the water is 19.0 cm, what minimum speed is required?

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s

Could an experiment similar to young's two-slit experiment be performed with sound? how might this be carried out? does it matte
Arada [10]
Young's double slit experiment(YDSE) can be used for any kind of waves such as electromagnetic waves, sound waves, water waves, gravity waves. YDSE is based on interference. In this experiment, we make two waves interfere in order to obtain bright and dark fringes on the screen(in case of light).
You can carry this out with water, would be great if you try this at pond or water reservoir in order to see perfect ripples.

What is pitch related to in terms of sound? Does it affect the speed? If so, how?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Pitch is the impression the listener gets of the <em>frequency</em> of the sound.

The speed of the sound is <em>not</em> related to its pitch/frequency.  

If the speed and frequency were related, that would be a real problem.  Bands, orchestras, and choirs could not exist !  All the instruments in the orchestra could play a note together, at the same time.  But then the higher instruments ... the flute, trumpet, violins, high guitar strings and high piano keys ... would travel to you fast, and the lower instruments ... the trombone, tuba, double bass, bass drum, low guitar strings and the low piano keys ... would travel to you slow.  They all played the note at the same time, but by the time you heard it, it would be all smeared out ... every instrument arriving at your ear at a different time !

How much heat is absorbed by a 67g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 8C to 94C? ___ Joules
Katen [24]
I googled the specific heat capacity for iron so it might be off to the value you might have used, bit it should be close.
