Answer:

It isn't safe for the truck to cross the bridge because the pressure exerted by the truck on the bridge is greater than the maximum tolerable pressure for the bridge, 562.5 Pa > 450 Pa.

Explanation:

Pressure is expressed in Force/Area.

So, for the truck, force exerted = 54000 N

Area covered = 30 × 3.2 = 96 m²

Pressure exerted by the truck = 54000/96 = 562.5 Pa

The pressure exerted by the truck on the bridge is greater than the maximum tolerable pressure for the bridge, 562.5 > 450, hence, it isn't safe for the truck to cross the bridge.

Answer:

a. 5.23 m/s² b. 44.23 N

Explanation:

a. What is the centripetal acceleration of the  hammer?  

The centripetal acceleration a = rω² where r = radius of circle and ω = angular speed.

Now r = length of chain = 1.4 m and ω = 0.595 rev/s = 0.595 × 2π/s = 3.74 rad/s.

So a = rω²

= 1.4 m × (3.74 rad/s)²

= 5.23 m/s²

b. What is the tension in the chain?

The tension in the chain, T = ma where m = mass of hammer = 8.45 kg and a = centripetal acceleration of hammer = 5.23 m/s². This tension is the centripetal force on the hammer.

So, T = 8.45 kg × 5.23 m/s²

= 44.23 N

A certain tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 215 Hz while each tip of its two prongs has an amplitude of 0.832 mm. (a) What
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of vibration, f = 215 Hz

Amplitude, A = 0.832 mm

(a) Let T is the period of this motion. It is given by the following relation as :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{215}

T=4.65\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b) Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

It can be given by :

v=f\times \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{215\ Hz}

\lambda=1.59\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

What gravitational attraction does the moon have on the earth? (mass of earth is 6 x
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The moon's gravitational pull on the Earth is the main cause of the rise and fall of ocean tides. The moon's gravitational pull causes two bulges of water on the Earth's oceans—one where ocean waters face the moon and the pull is strongest and one where ocean waters face away from the moon and the pull is weakest.

A 75 kg soccer player jumps vertically upwards and heads the 0.45 kg ball as it is descending vertically with a speed of 24 m/s.
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

31.66 m/s

Explanation:

mass of player, M = 75 kg

mass of ball, m = 0.45 kg

initial velocity of player, U = + 4 m/s

initial velocity of ball, u = - 24 m/s

Let the final speed of player is V and the ball is v.

use conservation of momentum

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

75 x 4 - 0.45 x 24 = 75 x V + 0.45 x v

289.2 = 75 V + 0.45 v    .... (1)

As the collision is perfectly elastic, coefficient of restitution,e = 1

So, e=\frac{v_{1}-v_{2}}{u_{2}-u_{1}}

V - v = u - U

V - v = -24 - 4 = - 28

V = v - 28, put this value in equation (1), we get

289.2 = 75 (v - 28) + 045 v

289.2 = 75 v - 2100 + 0.45 v

2389.2 = 75.45 v

v = 31.66 m/s

Thus, the velocity of ball after collision is 31.66 m/.
