Imagine a right triangle where the legs represent the horizontal and vertical lengths of the string and the hypotenuse represents the length of the string.
Let us assign some values:
x = horizontal length in feet
50 = vertical length in feet
L = length of the string in feet
Because we are modeling these quantities with a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to relate them with the following equation:
L² = x² + 50²
We want to find an equation for the change of L over time, so first differentiate both sides with respect to time t then solve for dL/dt:
2L(dL/dt) = 2x(dx/dt)
dL/dt = (x/L)(dx/dt)
First let's solve for x at the moment in time described in the problem using the Pythagorean theorem:
L² = x² + 50²
Given values:
L = 100ft
Plug in and solve for x:
100² = x² + 50²
x = 86.6ft
Now let's find dL/dt. Given values:
x = 86.6ft, L = 100ft, dx/dt = 4ft/sec
Plug in and solve for dL/dt:
dL/dt = (86.6/100)(4)
dL/dt = 3.46ft/sec
No it does not! As it is not moving?!
Answer:
Infrasound
but the longer the wavelength of a soundwave, the more it diffracts
Explanation:
It's D.
Weight always points downward.
The normal force always points perpendicular to the surface.
Friction opposes motion, so it points in the direction opposite the direction in which the block is moving.
