The speed of the wave in the string is 83.4 m/s

Explanation:

For a standing wave in a string, the speed of the wave is given by the equation:

v=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{m/L}}

where

L is the length of the string

T is the tension in the string

m is the mass of the string

In this problem, we have:

L = 0.72 m

m = 4.2 g = 0.0042 kg

T = 84.1 N

Solving the equation, we find the speed of the wave:

v=\frac{1}{2(0.72)}\sqrt{\frac{84.1}{0.0042/0.72}}=83.4 m/s

A dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The  angle is  \theta  =  15.48^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The distance of the dartboard from the dart is  d  =  3.66  \ m

     The time taken is  t =  0.455 \ s

   

The  horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

      u_x =  ucos \theta

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

  so

      distance =  velocity \ in \ the\  x-direction  *  time

substituting values

      3.66 =   ucos  \theta *  (0.455)

 =>   ucos \theta =  8.04  \ m/s

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

         t  =  \frac{2usin \theta }{g}

=>    usin \theta =  \frac{g  * t}{2 }

       usin \theta =  \frac{9.8  * 0.455}{2 }

      usin \theta = 2.23

=>   tan \theta =  \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta }  =  \frac{2.23}{8.04}

       \theta  =  tan^{-1} [0.277]

      \theta  =  15.48^o

A meteorologist plans to release a weather balloon from ground level, to be used for high-altitude atmospheric measurements. The
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

563.86 N

Explanation:

We know the buoyant force F = weight of air displaced by the balloon.

F = ρgV where ρ = density of air = 1.29 kg/m³, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and V = volume of balloon = 4πr/3 (since it is a sphere) where r = radius of balloon = 2.20 m

So, F = ρgV = ρg4πr³/3

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

F =  1.29 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 4π × (2.20 m)³/3

= 1691.58 N/3

= 563.86 N

Un cable está tendido sobre dos postes colocados con una separación de 10 m. A la mitad del cable se cuelga un letrero que provo
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.

What is the significance of the fact that the gravitational constant, G, is a very small number and that Coulomb’s constant, k,
valina [46]
Both are constants used in the definition of Forces (gravitational and electric,respectively)

Since those constants are proportional to the magnitude of the forces:

Having a small gravitational constant explains why there is no apparent force of attraction with objects of considerable low mass (they would need to have great value of mass for the equation to give an apreciable force)

Electrical interactions are usually strong, and thus require an appropiate constant to depict the phenomenon. We deal in this case with charges really small, but the forces are in different order of magnitude.
