In transverse waves, the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of energy transport? True or false?

The sensor in the torso of a crash test dummy records the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the dummy.If the du

Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions

As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.

So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors

so we can say

$F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}$

here given that

$F_1 = 130.0 N$

$F_2 = 4500.0 N$

now we will plug in all data in the above equation

$F_{net} = \sqrt{4500^2 + 130^}$

$F_{net} = 4501.9 N$

so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor

Answer:

Tension= 21,900N

Components of Normal force

Fnx= 17900N

Fny= 22700N

FN= 28900N

Explanation:

Tension in the cable is calculated by:

Etorque= -FBcostheta(1/2L)+FT(3/4L)-FWcostheta(L)= I&=0 static equilibrium

FTorque(3/4L)= FBcostheta(1/2L)+ FWcostheta(L)

Ftorque=(Fcostheta(1/2L)+FWcosL)/(3/4L)

Ftorque= 2/3FBcostheta+ 4/3FWcostheta

Ftorque=2/3(1350)(9.81)cos55° + 2/3(2250)(9.81)cos 55°

Ftorque= 21900N

b) components of Normal force

Efx=FNx-FTcos(90-theta)=0 static equilibrium

Fnx=21900cos(90-55)=17900N

Fy=FNy+ FTsin(90-theta)-FB-FW=0

FNy= -FTsin(90-55)+FB+FW

FNy= -21900sin(35)+(1350+2250)×9.81=22700N

The Normal force

FN=sqrt(17900^2+22700^2)

FN= 28.900N

What happens to light when it travels from air into water

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Water is more dense than air. When water goes through a denser thing, the light is "bent" more towards the "normal" which is a straight, vertical line.

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below

siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

$W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J$

Power is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds$

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds
