Answer:

Wavelength of sound in meters = 1.348 m

Explanation:

Given

speed of sound = 34500 cms^{-1} = 345 ms^{-1} (since 1 cm = 0.01m)

frequency of sound = 256 Hz = 256s^{-1}

Wavelength of sound in meters = ?

We know that all waves have same relationship among speed s, frequency f and wavelength λ, which is given by the equation

            v = fλ

Wavelength λ = v/f

                       = 345 ms^{-1} / 256s^{-1}

                       =1.348 m

Hence wavelength of sound in meters = 1.348 m

an athlete in a hammer-throw event swings a 7.0-kilogram hammer in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of 12 meters per seco
Semenov [28]

Answer:

ac = 72 m/s²

Fc = 504 N

Explanation:

We can find the centripetal acceleration of the hammer by using the following formula:

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}

where,

ac = centripetal acceleration = ?

v = constant speed = 12 m/s

r = radius = 2 m

Therefore,

a_c = \frac{(12\ m/s)^2}{2\ m}

<u>ac = 72 m/s²</u>

<u></u>

Now, the centripetal force applied by the athlete on the hammer will be:

F_c = ma_c\\F_c = (7\ kg)(72\ m/s^2)

<u>Fc = 504 N</u>

Light from two lasers is incident on an opaque barrier with a single slit of width 4.0 x 10^-4 m. One laser emits light of wavel
Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm

b) y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm

Explanation:

The formula of Young's Double Slit experiment will be used here:

y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\

where,

y = distance between dark spots = ?

λ = wavelength

L = distance of screen = 2 m

d = slit width = 4 x 10⁻⁴ m

a) FOR λ = 480 nm = 4.8 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(4.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm</u>

<u></u>

a) FOR λ = 640 nm = 6.4 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(6.4\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm</u>

A box rests on top of a flat bed truck. The box has a mass of m = 16.0 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the box an
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1) 1.31 m/s2

2) 20.92 N

3) 8.53 m/s2

4) 1.76 m/s2

5) -8.53 m/s2

Explanation:

1) As the box does not slide, the acceleration of the box (relative to ground) is the same as acceleration of the truck, which goes from 0 to 17m/s in 13 s

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{17 - 0}{13} = 1.31 m/s2

2)According to Newton 2nd law, the static frictional force that acting on the box (so it goes along with the truck), is the product of its mass and acceleration

F_s = am = 1.31*16 = 20.92 N

3) Let g = 9.81 m/s2. The maximum static friction that can hold the box is the product of its static coefficient and the normal force.

F_{\mu_s} = \mu_sN = mg\mu_s = 16*9.81*0.87 = 136.6N

So the maximum acceleration on the block is

a_{max} = F_{\mu_s} / m = 136.6 / 16 = 8.53 m/s^2

4)As the box slides, it is now subjected to kinetic friction, which is

F_{\mu_s} = mg\mu_k = 16*9.81*0.69 = 108.3 N

So if the acceleration of the truck it at the point where the box starts to slide, the force that acting on it must be at 136.6 N too. So the horizontal net force would be 136.6 - 108.3 = 28.25N. And the acceleration is

28.25 / 16 = 1.76 m/s2

5) Same as number 3), the maximum deceleration the truck can have without the box sliding is -8.53 m/s2

The object represented by this graph is moving
Vinil7 [7]

The object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.

Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the figure, x-axis is representing increase in the time and y-axis is presenting increase in the distance from bottom to up. But the line in the graph which is plotted is decreasing from high distance to small distance with increase in time. So this indicates that as the time is increasing, the distance is decreasing.

And the object is moving toward the origin as the distance of the object motion is found to decrease with increase of time as per the graph. But the slope of the graph is found to be almost constant, this indicates that the velocity of the object is constant. Thus, the object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.
