A 500 kg table with 4 legs rests on solid flat ground. I place 3 books on the center of the table with masses of 10 kg, 20 kg an

d 30 kg respectively. What is the normal force between the ground and one leg of the table?

Answer:

1,373.4 N

Explanation:

The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.

Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg

Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg

This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg

Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N

Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N

A tuning fork with a frequency of 335 Hz and a tuning fork of unknown frequency produce beats with a frequency of 5.3 when struc
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

Unknown fork frequency is either

335 + 5.3 = 340.3 Hz

or

335 - 5.3 = 329.7 Hz

After we modify the known fork, the unknown fork frequency equation becomes either

(335 - x) + 8 = 340.3

(335 - x)  = 332.3

x = 2.7 Hz

or

(335 - x) + 8 = 329.7

(335 - x) = 321.7

x = 13.3 Hz

IF the unknown fork frequency was 340.3 Hz,

THEN the 335 Hz fork was detuned to 335 - 2.7 = 332.3 Hz

IF the unknown fork frequency was 329.7 Hz,

THEN the 335 Hz fork was detuned to 335 - 13.3 = 321.7 Hz

Engineers and science fiction writers have proposed designing space stations in the shape of a rotating wheel or ring, which wou
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

a. The station is rotating at 1.496 \frac{rev}{min}

b. the rotation needed is 2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}

Explanation:

We know that the centripetal acceleration is

a_{c}= \omega ^2 r

where \omega is the rotational speed and r is the radius. As the centripetal acceleration is feel like an centrifugal acceleration in the rotating frame of reference (be careful, as the rotating frame of reference is <u>NOT INERTIAL,</u> the centrifugal force is a fictitious force, the real force is the centripetal).

<h3>a. </h3>

The rotational speed  is :

2.7 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110  \ m

\omega ^2 = \frac{2.7 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}

\omega  = \sqrt{ 0.02454 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }

\omega  = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s}

Knowing that there are 2\pi \ rad in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

\omega  = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s}  \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}

\omega  = 1.496 \frac{rev}{min}

<h3>b. </h3>

The rotational speed needed is :

9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110  \ m

\omega ^2 = \frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}

\omega  = \sqrt{ 0.08909 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }

\omega  = 0.2985 \frac{rad}{s}

Knowing that there are 2\pi \ rad in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

\omega  = 0.2985 \frac{rev}{min}  \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}

\omega  = 2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}

Design an experimental set up to show that white light is made up of different colours of light​
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Issac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight. He tried to split the colours of the spectrum of white light further by using another similar prism. However, he could not get any more colours. He then placed a second identical prism in an inverted position with respect to the first as shown.

This allowed all the colours of the spectrum to pass through the second prism. He found a beam of white light emerging from the other side of the second prism. This observation gave Newton the idea that the sunlight is made-up of seven colours.
