A playground slide is in the form of an arc of a circle with a maximum height of 3.0 m, with a radius of 8.5 m, and with the gro

und tangent to the circle. Dr. Ritchey’s 12 kg daughter starts from rest at the top of the slide and has a speed of 4.5 m/s at the bottom. a. What is the length of the slide? b. What average frictional force acts on the child over this distance?

Answer:

a) s \approx 6.676\,m

Explanation:

a) Let assume that the ground is not inclined, since the bottom of the playground slide is tangent to ground. Then, the length of given by the definition of a circular arc:

s = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot R

s=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (8.5\,m)

s \approx 6.676\,m

The bottom of the slide has a height of zero. The physical phenomenon around Dr. Ritchey's daughter is modelled after Principle of Energy Conservation. The child begins at rest:

U_{g,A} = K_{B} + W_{fr}

m\cdot g \cdot h_{A} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{B}^{2} + f\cdot s

The average frictional force is cleared within the expression:

f = \frac{m\cdot (g\cdot h_{A}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot v_{B}^{2})}{s}

f = \frac{(12\,kg)\cdot [(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3\,m)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.5\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} ]}{6.676\,m}

f = 34.684\,N

Which instrument produces the sound of a single frequency?
notka56 [123]
NO musical instrument produces a 'pure' tone with only a
single frequency in it.

EVERY instrument produces more or less harmonics (multiples)
in addition to the basic frequency it's playing.

The percussion instruments (drums etc) are the richest producers
of bunches of different frequencies.

Fuzzy electric guitars are next richest.

The strings and brass instruments are moderate producers of
harmonics ... I can't remember which is greater than the other.

Then come the woodwinds ... clarinet, oboe, etc.

The closest to 'pure' tones of single frequency are the sounds
made by the flute and piccolo, but even these are far from 'pure'.

The only way to get a true single-frequency sound is from an
electronic 'sine wave' generator.
