A Ferris wheel has radius 5.0 m and makes one revolution every 8.0 s with uniform rotation. A person who normally weighs 670 N i
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The apparent weight of the person as she pass the highest point is  N  =  458.8 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The radius of the Ferris wheel is r = 5.0 \ m

    The period of revolution is T = 8.0 \ s

     The weight of the person is  W  =  670 \ N

   

Generally the speed of the wheel is mathematically represented as

      v =  \frac{2 \pi r}{T }

substituting values

      v =  \frac{2 * 3.142 *  5}{8 }

       v =  3.9 3 \ m/s

The apparent weight (the normal force exerted on her by the bench) at the highest point is mathematically evaluated as

          N  =  mg  - \frac{mv^2}{r}

Where m is the mass of the person which is mathematically evaluated as

     m =  \frac{W}{g}

substituting values

    m =  \frac{670}{9.8}

    m =  68.37 \ kg

So

    N  =  68.37 * 9.8   - \frac{68.37 * {3.93}^2}{5}

    N  =  458.8 \ N

how long does it take an acorn to hit the ground after dropping from the branch of a tree 50.0m high? remember that g=9.8m/s^2
NeX [460]
D = V1( t ) + 1/2g( t )^2
50m = 0m/s( t ) + 1/2(9.8m/s^2)*( t )^2
V1*t cancels out
50m = (4.9m/s^2)*(t)^2
50m/(4.9m/s^2) = t^2
Metres unit cancels out so we are left with s^2
10.204s^2 = t^2
Square root both sides to cancel out square
t = 3.19 s

a nonrelativistic proton is confined to a length of 2.0 pm on the x-axis. what is the kinetic energy of the proton if its speed
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

K = 1.29eV

Explanation:

In order to calculate the kinetic energy of the proton you first take into account the uncertainty principle, which is given by:

\Delta x \Delta p\geq \frac{h}{4\pi}      (1)

Δx : uncertainty of position = 2.0pm = 2.0*10^-12m

Δp: uncertainty of momentum = ?

h: Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 J.s

You calculate the minimum possible value of Δp from the equation (1):

\Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x}=\frac{6.626*10^{-34}J.s}{4\pi(2.0*10^{-12}m)}\\\\\Delta p=2.63*10^{-23}kg.\frac{m}{s}

The minimum kinetic energy is calculated by using the following formula:

k=\frac{(\Delta p)^2}{2m}       (2)

m: mass of the proton = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

k=\frac{(2.63*10^{-23}kgm/s)^2}{2(1.67*10^{-27}kg)}=2.08*10^{-19}J

in eV you have:

2.08*10^{-19}J*\frac{6.242*10^{18}eV}{1J}=1.29eV

The kinetic energy of the proton is 1.29eV

1) How does the frequency of sound affect the speed of sound?
Travka [436]

Changing frequency of sound does not change the speed of the sound.

Explanation:

  • Speed of the sound gets altered when the sound travels from one medium to another.
  • Change in frequency does not affect the speed of the sound and speed is affected by the properties of the medium through which it travels.
  • Therefore, to change the speed of the sound, the properties of the medium needs to be changed.
