Alice drops a rock to a well. She hears the splash of the rock 4.1s later. The speed of sound is 340m/s. How deep is the well

Answer:

697 m

Explanation:

From the question above,

Note: Alice hears the splash of the rock in the well through the help of echo.

Applying,

v = 2x/t........................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound, x = depth of the well, t = time.

make x the subject of the formula in equation 1

x = vt/2................... Equation 2.

Given: v = 340 m/s, t = 4.1 s

Substitute these values into equation 2

x = 340(4.1)/2

x = 697 m.

Problem: The frequency of an FM radio station is 89.3 MHz. Calculate its period. Part B: From the Library, select the general eq
vekshin1

Answer:

Time period, T=1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s

Explanation:

We have,

The frequency of an FM radio station is 89.3 MHz.

It is required to find the period of the wave.

The reciprocal of frequency is called time period of a wave. It can be given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{89.3\times 10^{6}\ Hz}\\\\T=1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s

So, the period of the wave is 1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s.

Mechanical advantage what does this mean for a simple machine
lyudmila [28]
Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. Ideally, the device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force. The model for this is the <span>law of the lever.</span> Machine components designed to manage forces and movement in this way are called mechanisms. An ideal mechanism transmits power without adding to or subtracting from it. This means the ideal mechanism does not include a power source, and is frictionless and constructed from rigid bodies that do not deflect or wear. The performance of a real system relative to this ideal is expressed in terms of efficiency factors that take into account friction, deformation and wear.

The box is pushed to the right with a force of 40 Newtons and it just begins to move what is the maximum static frictional force
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The maximum static frictional force is 40N.

Explanation:

When an object of mass M is on a surface with a coefficient of static friction μ, there is a minimum force that you need to apply to the object in order to "break" the coefficient of static friction and be able to move the object (Called the threshold of motion, once the object is moving we have a coefficient of kinetic friction, which is smaller than the one for static friction).

This coefficient defines the maximum static friction force that we can have.

So if we apply a small force and we start to increase it, the static frictional force will be equal to our force until it reaches its maximum, and then we can move the object and now we will have frictional force.

In this case, we know that we apply a force of 40N and the object just starts to move.

Then we can assume that we are just at the point of transition between static frictional force and kinetic frictional force (the threshold of motion), thus, 40 N is the maximum of the static frictional force.
