What happens when an object is dropped?

Physics

When an object is dropped, tossed, or kicked, as long as it is not laying on the ground, it accelerates downward, because of the force of gravity acting on it.

An engineer wishes to design a curved exit ramp for a toll road in such a way that a car will not have to rely on friction to ro
Dafna11 [192]

To solve this problem we will make a graph that allows us to understand the components acting on the body. In this way we will have the centripetal Force and the Force by gravity generating a total component. If we take both forces and get the trigonometric ratio of the tangent we would have the angle is,

T_x = nsinA = \frac{mv^2}{r}

T_y = ncosA = mg

Dividing both.

tan A = \frac{v^2}{rg}

tan A = \frac{11.7^2}{50*9.8}

A = tan^{-1} (0.279367)

A = 15.608\°

Therefore the angle that should the curve be banked is 15.608°

Resonances of the ear canal lead to increased sensitivity of hearing, as we’ve seen. Dogs have a much longer ear canal—5.2 cm—th
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

B. 1700 Hz, 5100 Hz

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Length of ear canal = 5.2cm = 0.052 m

Speed of sound in warm air = 350 m/s

The ear canal is analogous to a tube that has one open end and one closed end. The frequency of standing wave modes in such a tube is given as:

f(m) = m * (v/4L)

Where m is an odd integer;

v = velocity

L = length of the tube

Hence, the two lowest frequencies at which a dog will have increased sensitivity are f(1) and f(3).

f(1) = 1 * [350/(4*0.052)]

f(1) = 1682.69 Hz

Approximately, f(1) = 1700 Hz

f(3) = 3 * [350/(4*0.052)]

f(3) = 5048 Hz

Approximately, f(3) = 5100 Hz
