A 13 kg hanging sculpture is suspended by a 95-cm-long, 5.0 g steel wire. When the wind blows hard, the wire hums at its fundame

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

$f=81.96 \ Hz$

Explanation:

Givens

$L=95cm$

$m_{sculpture} =13kg$

$m_{wire}=5g$

The frequency is defined by

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

Where $v$ is the speed of the wave in the string and $\lambda$ is its wave length.

The wave length is defined as $\lambda = 2L = 2(0.95m)=1.9m$

Now, to find the speed, we need the tension of the wire and its linear mass density

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }$

Where $\mu=\frac{0.005kg}{0.95m}= 5.26 \times 10^{-3}$ and the tension is defined as $T=m_{sculpture} g=13kg(9.81 m/s^{2} )=127.53N$

Replacing this value, the speed is

$v=\sqrt{\frac{127.53N}{5.26 \times 10^{-3} } }=155.71 m/s$

Then, we replace the speed and the wave length in the first equation

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}\\f=\frac{155.71 m/s}{1.9m}\\ f=81.96Hz$

Therefore, the frequency is $f=81.96 \ Hz$

A student attaches a rope to his

erastova [34]

The choices are:

a. Normal Force

b. Gravity Force

c. Applied Force

d. Friction Force

e. Tension Force

f. Air Resistance Force

Answer:

The answer is letter e, Tension Force.

Explanation:

Force refers to the "push" and "pull" of an object, provided that the object has mass. This results to acceleration or a change in velocity. There are many types of forces such as <em>Normal Force, Gravity Force, Applied Force, Friction Force, Tension Force and Air Resistance Force.</em>

The situation above is an example of a "tension force." This is considered the force that is being applied to an object by strings or ropes. This is a type force that allows the body to be pulled and not pushed, since ropes are not capable of it. In the situation above, the tension force of the rope is acting on the bag and this allows the bag to be pulled.

Thus, this explains the answer.

When you jump from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. By doing this, you make the time o

dsp73

Answer:

c. about 1/10 as great.

Explanation:

While jumping form a certain height when we bend our knees upon reaching the ground such that the time taken to come to complete rest is increased by 10 times then the impact force gets reduced to one-tenth of the initial value when we would not do so.

This is in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change in velocity is directly proportional to the force applied on the body.

Mathematically:

$F\propto\frac{d}{dt} (p)$
