How often would you push someone on a swing to create a frequency of .4 hertz

Physics

Wewaii [24]3 years ago

The unit "Hertz" means "per second".

Anything happening with a frequency of 0.4 Hz is happening 0.4 per second.

Technically, you must push the swing 0.4 times per second.
But since it's very hard to push 0.4 of one time, you have to be
able to figure out that you should push once every 2.5 seconds.

     (1 push / 2.5 sec)  =  (1/2.5) push/sec  =  0.4 per sec  =  0.4 Hz .

A rock is thrown horizontally out of a window with a velocity of 20.0 m/s. If the window is 8.50m above the ground, how far
vladimir1956 [14]

The distance from the base of the building the rock will land is 26.4 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 20 m/s
  • Height (h) = 8.50 m
  • Distance (s) =?
<h3>Determination of the time to reach the ground </h3>
  • Height (h) = 8.50 m
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

8.5 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

8.5 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 8.5 / 4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(8.5 / 4.9)

t = 1.32 s

<h3>How to determine the distance </h3>
  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 20 m/s
  • Time (t) = 1.32 s
  • Distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 20 × 1.32

s = 26.4 m

Is it possible to have a net torque when all of the forces sum to zero? Explain.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

When two equal magnitude forces are acting on the rod in opposite direction

Then the net force on the system is always zero in that case

so we will have

F - F = 0

now for the system net torque due to these forces is given by

\tau = F(r_1) + F(r_2)

here we know that

r_1, r_2 = distance of the forces from reference about which torque is measured

so here we can say that net force is zero on the system while torque is not zero

in all such case object will rotate about a fixed position with change angular speed
