What is the SI Unit for amplitude?

1 answer:

4 0

This distance is known as the amplitude of the wave, and is the characteristic height of the wave, above or below the equilibrium position. Normally the symbol A is used to represent the amplitude of a wave. The SI unit of amplitude is the metre (m).

Assuming that Albertine's mass is 60.0 kg , for what value of μk, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.101$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Albertine, m = 60 kg

It can be assumed, the spring constant of the spring, k = 95 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 5 m

A glass sits 19.8 m from her outstretched foot, h = 19.8 m

When she just reach the glass without knocking it over, a force of friction will also act on it. Using the conservation of energy for the spring mass system such that,

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\mu_k mgh$

$\mu_k=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mgh}$

$\mu_k=\dfrac{95\times (5)^2}{2\times 60\times 9.8\times 19.8}$

$\mu_k=0.101$

So, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the waxed floor is 0.101. Hence, this is the required solution.

a volleyball is hit upward with an initial velocity of 7.5 m/s. calculate the displacement of the volleyball when its final velo

Luden [163]

Answer:

The displacement of the volleyball is 2.62 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the volleyball, u = 7.5 m/s

final velocity of the volleyball, v = 2.2 m/s

displacement of the volleyball, d = ?

Apply the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² - 2gd

2gd = u² - v²

$d = \frac{u^{2}-v^{2} }{2g}\\\\d = \frac{7.5^{2}-2.2^{2} }{2*9.8}\\\\d = 2.62 \ m$

Therefore, the displacement of the volleyball is 2.62 m

Which statement about the total velocity of a projectile launched at an angle less than 90° above a flat surface is true?

marissa [1.9K]

The correct answer is B the total velocity is equal at both landing and launch because before your about launch you have 0 velocity then when you have landed you also have 0 velocity. Hope This Helps
