Sound waves traveling through air are indeed longitudinal waves with compressions and rarefactions. As sound passes through air (or any fluid medium), the particles of air do not vibrate in a transverse manner.

A block of mass 2.5kg is pressed against a spring and compresses the spring to a length of
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

10.032 N.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtainedb

Mass (m) = 2.5 Kg

Final length = 10.0 cm

Original length = 21.4 cm

Spring constant (K) = 88 N/m

Force (N) =?

Next, we shall determine the compression of the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Final length = 10.0 cm

Original length = 21.4 cm

Compression (e) =?

e = Original length – final length

e = 21.4 – 10

e = 11.4 cm

Next, we shall convert 11.4 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

11.4cm = 11.4 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

10 cm = 0.114 m

Finally, we shall determine the force. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Compression (e) = 0.114 m

Spring constant (K) = 88 N/m

Force (N) =?

F = Ke

F = 88 × 0.114

F = 10.032 N

Thus, the force in the spring is 10.032 N

If I've understood it correctly, the right one should look like this: In most cultures, the difference between the majority viewpoint and the minority viewpoint is that the majority group is made to feel normal and the minority group is made to feel divergent.

A constant torque of 26.6 N · m is applied to a grindstone for which the moment of inertia is 0.162 kg · m2 . Find the angular s
ozzi

Answer:

156.1 rad/s = 24.8 rev/s

Explanation:

Torque = Momentum of inertial × radial acceleration = Iα

τ = 26.6 N.m

I = 0.162 kg.m²

26.6 = 0.162 × α

α = 164.2 rad/s²

Using equations of motion,

θ = 11.8 rev = 11.8 × 2π = 74.2 rad

w₀ = 0 rad/s (since the grindstone starts from rest)

w = ?

α = 164.2 rad/s²

w² = w₀² + 2(α)(θ)

w² = 0² + (2×164.2)(74.2)

w = 156.1 rad/s = 24.8 rev/s

Hope this Helps!!!

Suppose astronomers built a 20-meter telescope. How much greater would its light-collecting area be than that of the 10-meter Ke
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

4 times greater

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Calculate light-collecting area of a  20-meter telescope (A₁) by using area of a circle.

Area of circle = π*r² =\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

Where d is the diameter of the circle = 20-m

A_{1} = \frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

A_{1} = \frac{\pi (20^{2})}{4}

A₁ = 314.2 m²

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate light-collecting area of a  10-meter Keck telescope (A₂)

A_{2} = \frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

Where d is the diameter of the circle = 10-m

A_{2} = \frac{\pi (10^{2})}{4}

A₂ = 78.55 m²

<u>Step 3</u>: divide A₁ by A₂  

= \frac{314.2 m^2}{78.55 m^2}

= 4

Therefor,  the 20-meter telescope light-collecting area would be 4 times greater than that of the 10-meter Keck telescope.

A half circle arc with its center at the origin has a linear charge density of λ = 12 nC/m along the arc. The radius of the arc
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge density is  λ = 12 nC/m

And radius 3cm

r=0.03m.

The charge density of a along a circular arc is given as

λ= Q/πr

Then, Q=πrλ

Q=π×0.03×12×10^-9

Q=1.131×10^-9 C

Q=1.131 nC

Then, electric field along x axis is symmetrical and if cancels out

Now, Ey is in the negative direction

Electric field is given as,

Ey=-2kQ/πr²

K is constant =9×10^9Nm²/C²

Ey=-2×9×10^9×1.131×10^-9/(π ×0.03²)

Ey=7200 N/C.

The direction is negative direction of y axis, check attachment for diagram.

b. Electric potential at the origin is given as

V=Ed

d=r=0.03

V=7200×0.03

V=216V
