The correct answer is f= 260 Hz

Answer:

260 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a sound wave is  defined as the number of oscillation which is given in cycles per time. Frequency (f) is given  by the formula ;

f = \frac{1}{T} and it is measured in Hertz(Hz)

Given that;

a vibration is caused by a struck string in piano at  260 cycles and Time (T) = 1 seconds

Frequency (f) can be determined as; 260 cycles × 1 seconds

= 260 Hertz (Hz)

Hence, the frequency of the sound wave is 260 Hertz (Hz).

Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on asmooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of18.0 m. Simult
zlopas [31]

Answer:

8.505 m

Explanation:

Let V1 and V2 be velocities of puck A and B respectively

Since A and B move in the same direction, so the relative velocity will be V1+V2=3.5+3.9=7.4m/s

Or

Vr=7.4 m/s

Distance=S= 18 m

Time =t=?

S=Vr×t

==> t=S/Vr

==> t= 18/7.4=2.43 sec

At this time both will strike together

<em><u>Distance by puck A</u></em>

<em>V1=3.5 m/s</em>

Time=t= 2.43 sec

Distance covered=d=?

d=V1×t=3.5×2.43=8.505 m

So, puck A will cover 8.505 meters before collision

The string constrains the rotational and translational motion of the falling cylinder, given that it doesn't slip. what is the r
Sindrei [870]
<span>Answer: First we need to find the acceleration. torque on cylinder τ = T * r where T is the string tension; T = m(g - a) where a is the acceleration of the cylinder. Then τ = m(g - a)r But also τ = Iα. For a solid cylinder, I = ½mr², and if the string doesn't slip, then α = a / r, so τ = ½mr² * a/r = ½mra. Since τ = τ, we have m(g - a)r = ½mra → m, r cancel, leaving g - a = ½a g = 3a/2 a = 2g/3 where g, of course, is gravitational acceleration. We know that v(t) = a*t, so for our cylinder v(t) = 2gt / 3 ◄ linear velocity and ω = v(t) / r = 2gt / 3r ◄ angular velocity</span>

How does mass effect the speed of a forced object​
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

the bigger the mass, the smaller the acceleration and the smaller speed

Explanation:

this can be proven from the formula F = ma

F = m×speed/time

Or a practical example is that of a heavy object and a light object if pushed with the same force, it'll be observed that the small object moves faster or with a greater speed than the heavy object

A 76g ball is attached to a string that is 1.5m long. It is spun so that it completes two full rotations every second. What is t
Marat540 [252]

The centripetal acceleration = 236.63 m/s²

The force = 17.98 N

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 76 g = 0.076 kg

r = 1.5 m

f = 2 rps = 2 rotation per second

Required

The centripetal acceleration

The Force tension

Solution

Centripetal force is a force acting on objects that move in a circle in the direction toward the center of the circle  

\large {\boxed {\bold {F = \frac {mv ^ 2} {R}}}

F = centripetal force, N  

m = mass, Kg  

v = linear velocity, m / s  

r = radius, m  

The speed that is in the direction of the circle is called linear velocity  

Can be formulated:  

\tt \displaysyle v = 2 \pi.r.f

r = circle radius  

f = rotation per second (RPS)  

The linear velocity : 2 x 3.14 x 1.5 x 2 =18.84 m/s

The centripetal acceleration : ac = v²/R = 236.63 m/s²

The force : F = m x ac = 0.076 x 236.63 = 17.98 N

A man stands on a cliff that 10m above the sea. He throws a stone vertically upwards with velocity 5ms^-1. The stone eventually
ladessa [460]
Do you remember the general equation for the distance covered
by a moving object ?  There are not many perfect opportunities to
use it in all its glory, but I think this is one of them.

Position =
(starting distance) + (starting speed) (time) + (1/2) (acceleration) (time)²

H = starting position + (starting speed x t) + 1/2 A t²

Here's how we can use it, with some careful definitions:

-- Let's say the surface of the sea is zero height.
Then 'H' ... the position at the end ... is zero, when it plunks into the water, and
the starting, original position of the stone is +10 on the cliff in the man's hand.

--  Starting speed is +5 ... 5 m/s upward, when he tosses it.

-- Acceleration is 9.8 m/s² downward ... the acceleration of gravity.

I think this is going to work out just beautifully !

0 = (5) + 5t - 1/2 (9.8) t²

-4.9 t² + 5t + 5 = 0  That's the whole thing right there. Look how gorgeous that is !

Solve it for 't' with the quadratic equation,
A = -4.9
B = 5
C = 5

When you solve a quadratic with the formula, you always get two roots.
If it's a real-world situation, one of them might not make sense.  That's
the result in this case.

The two roots are

t = - 0.622 second
and
t = + 1.642 second

The first one isn't useful, because it means 0.622 second <u>before</u> the man
tossed the stone up.

So our answer is:  We hear the 'plunk' <em>1.642 second</em> after the upward toss.
