A man pushing a mop across a floor causes it to undergo two displacements. The first has a magnitude of 146 cm and makes an angl

e of 124° with the positive x axis. The resultant displacement has a magnitude of 137 cm and is directed at an angle of 32.0° to the positive x axis. Find the magnitude and direction of the second displacement.

Answer:

B = 191.26 cm

θ = -14.73°

Explanation:

given,

magnitude of the first displacement(A) = 146 cm

at an angle of 124°

resultant magnitude = 137 cm

and angle made with x-axis by the resultant(R) = 32.0°

component of A in X and Y direction

A x = A cos θ  = 146 cos 120° = -73 cm

A y = A sin θ = 146 sin 120° = 126.4 cm

now component of resultant in x and y direction

R x = 137 cos 35°

    = 112.2 cm

R y = 137 sin 35°

     = 78.6 cm

resultant is the sum of two vectors

R = A + B

R x = A x + B x

B x =  112.2 - (-73) = 185.2 cm

B y = R y - A y

B y = 78.6 - 126.4 = -47.8 cm

magnitude of B

B = \sqrt{B_x^2+B_y^2}

B = \sqrt{185.2^2+-47.8^2}

B = 191.26 cm

angle\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{-47.8}{185.2}

θ = -14.73°

1.Predict the frequency of a tuning fork that emits a sound with a wavelength of 0.385 m.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

1.) Frequency F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

Explanation:

1.) Given that the wavelength = 0.385m

The speed of sound = 343 m / s

To predict the frequency, let us use the formula V = F λ

Where (λ) = wavelength = 0.385m

343 = F × 0.385

F = 343/0.385

F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Given that the frequency = 384Hz

Using the formula again

V = F λ

λ = V/F

Wavelength (λ) = 343/384

Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

The two questions can be solved with the use of formula

A bumper cart has a mass of 200 kg and has a protective bumper around it that behaves like a spring. The spring constant is 5000
34kurt
Part A:
For this part we’re assuming all the kinetic energy of the moving bumper car is converted into elastic potential energy in the spring since the car is brought to rest. Therefore you can find the total kinetic energy to get your answer:

KE = ½ mv^2
KE = ½ (200)(8)^2
KE = 6400 J

Part B:
Now you can use Hooke’s law to find the force:

F = kx
F = (5000)(0.2)
F = 1000 N
