18. A person pulls horizontally with a force of 64 N on a 14-kg box. There is a force of friction between the box and the floor

of 36 N. Find the acceleration of the box in m/s2.

since force=massxacceleration
therefore acceleration=force/mass
the resultant force=the acting force on the object-the frictional force
the resultant force=64-36=28N
therefore the acceleration=28/14=2m/sec^2

An organ pipe open at both ends has two successive harmonics with frequencies of 220 Hz and 240 Hz. What is the length of the pi

Harman [31]

Answer:

The length is $l = 8.6 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are $f_1 = 220 \ Hz$ , $f_2 = 240 \ Hz$

The speed of sound in the air is $v_s = 343 \ m/s$

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

$f_n = \frac{n v }{2l}$

Here n defines the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

$220 = \frac{n v}{2l}$

and

$240 = \frac{(n+1) v}{2l}$

So

$\frac{(n + 1 ) v}{2l} - \frac{n v}{2l} = 240-220$

=> $\frac{v}{2l} = 20$

=> $l = 8.6 \ m$

A body of mass 5 kg has a velocity<br><br><br>20 MS <br><br>-1 its Momentum is

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Momentum is 100 kg.m/s

Explanation:

given

mass, m = 5 kg

velocity, v = 20 m/s

To find : momentum (P)

We know that momentum is given by equation:

p = mv

= 5 kg x 20 m/s

= 100 kg.m/s
