If four vertical cables are holding up a rectangular, 100- Newton sign, how much tension is on each cable?

We may balance the forces in order to calculate the tension.
We know that there are no horizontal forces being applied. Next, the vertical forces are:
Weight (W) which is acting downwards
Tension in each wire (T) which is acting upwards
Because the sign is stationary, the downward force must equal the upward force. So we may write:
Weight = 4 * tension
W = 4T

100 = 4T
T = 25 N

The tension in each wire is 25 Newtons

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular wa
Mila [183]

Answer: 3 radians/meter.

Explanation:

The general sinusoidal function will be something like:

y = A*sin(k*x - ω*t) + C

Where:

A is the amplitude.

k is the wave number.

x is the spatial variable

ω is the angular frequency

t is the time variable.

C is the mid-value.

The rule that we can use to solve this problem, is that the argument of the sin( ) function must be in radians (or in degrees)

Then if x is in meters, the wave-number must be in radians/meters, so when these numbers multiply the "meters" part is canceled.

Then for the case of the function:

y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Where x is in meters, the units of the wave number (the 3) must be in radians/meters. Then the angular wave number is 3 radians/meter.

A certain piece of metal (density 9.45 grams per cubic centimeter) has the shape of a hockey puck with a diameter of 13 cm and a
atroni [7]

Answer:

0.0195 m

Explanation:

\rho _{p} = density of hockey puck = 9.45 gcm⁻³ = 9450 kgm³

d_{p} = diameter of hockey puck = 13 cm = 0.13 m

h_{p} = height of hockey puck = 2.8 cm = 0.028 m

\rho _{m} = density of mercury = 13.6 gcm⁻³ = 13600 kgm³

d = depth of puck below surface of mercury

According to Archimedes principle, the weight of puck is balanced by the weight of mercury displaced by puck

Weight of mercury displaced = Weight of puck

\rho _{m} (0.25)(\pi d_{p}^{2} d ) g = \rho _{p} (0.25)(\pi d_{p}^{2} h_{p} ) g\\\rho _{m} ( d ) = \rho _{p} ( h_{p} )\\(13600) d = (9450) (0.028)\\d = 0.0195 m
