To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second Law as well as to the expression of mass as a function of Volume and Density.

From Newton's second law we know that

F= ma

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

At the same time we know that the density is given by,

\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = \rho V

Our values are given as,

g = 9.8m/s^2

m =0.459 kg

D=0.242 m

Therefore the Force by Weight is

F_w = mg

F_w = 0.459kg * 9.8m/s^2 = 4.498N

Now the buoyant force acting on the ball is

F_B=\rho V g

The value of the Volume of a Sphere can be calculated as,

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.242/2)^3

V = 0.007420m^3

\rho_w = 1000kg/m^3 \rightarrow Normal conditions

Then,

F_B=0.007420*(1000)*(9.8) = 72.716 N

Therefore the Force net is,

F_{net} = F_B -F_w

F_{net} = 72.716N - 4.498N =68.218 N

Therefore the required Force is 68.218N

A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched, string. the amplitude of this wave is 0.0885 m, it's frequency is
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

(a) 0.177 m

(b) 16.491 s

(c) 25 cycles

Explanation:

(a)

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the  wave = 2A ............ Equation 1

Where A = amplitude of the wave.

Given: A = 0.0885 m,

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = (2×0.0885) m

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = 0.177 m.

(b)

T = 1/f ...................... Equation 2.

Where T = period, f = frequency.

Given: f = 4.31 Hz

T = 1/4.31

T = 0.23 s.

If 1 cycle pass through the stationary observer for 0.23 s.

Then, 71.7 cycles will pass through the stationary observer for (0.23×71.7) s.

= 16.491 s.

(c)

If  1.21 m contains  1 cycle,

Then, 30.7 m will contain (30.7×1)/1.21

= 25.37 cycles

Approximately 25 cycles.

a 1 m length of string is wrapped around a solid disk, of mass .25 kg and a radius of .30m, mounted on a frictionless axle. the
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 rad/s

Explanation:

∑τ = Iα

Fr = Iα

For a solid disc, I = ½ mr².

Fr = ½ mr² α

α = 2F / (mr)

α = 2 (20 N) / (0.25 kg × 0.30 m)

α = 533.33 rad/s²

The arc length is 1 m, so the angle is:

s = rθ

1 m = 0.30 m θ

θ = 3.33 rad

Use constant acceleration equation to find ω.

ω² = ω₀² + 2αΔθ

ω² = (0 rad/s)² + 2 (533.33 rad/s²) (3.33 rad)

ω = 59.6 rad/s

Rounding to one significant figure, the angular velocity is 60 rad/s.

Briefly explain how a resonance tube works​
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

As the tines of the tuning fork vibrate at their own natural frequency, they created sound waves that impinge upon the opening of the resonance tube. These impinging sound waves produced by the tuning fork force air inside of the resonance tube to vibrate at the same frequency.

A 8.00-kg object is hung from the bottom end of a vertical spring fastened to an overhead beam. The object is set into vertical
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

109.32 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the hung object, m = 8 kg

Period of oscillation of object, T = 1.7 s

Force constant, k = ?

Recall that the period of oscillation of a Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

T = 2π √(m/k), where

T = period of oscillation

m = mass of object and

k = force constant if the spring

Since we are looking for the force constant, if we make "k" the subject of the formula, we have

k = 4π²m / T², now we go ahead to substitute our given values from the question

k = (4 * π² * 8) / 1.7²

k = 315.91 / 2.89

k = 109.32 N/m

Therefore, the force constant of the spring is 109.32 N/m
