Answer:

W=1055N

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first do a drawing of the situation so we can visualize theh problem better. (See attached picture)

In this problem, we will ignore the board's weight. As we can see in the free body diagram of the board, there are only three forces acting on the system and we can say the system is in vertical equilibrium, so from this we can say that:

\sum F=0

so we can do the sum now:

F_{1}+F_{2}-W=0

when solving for the Weight W, we get:

W=F_{1}+F_{2}

and now we can substitute the given data, so we get:

W=410N+645N

W=1055N

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?
fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as V_1, the relation with the final volume as

V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1

V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1

V_2 = 1.00163V_1

Initial temperature = 21.1\°C

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)

Where \gamma is the volume coefficient of copper 5.1*10^{-5}/C

1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))

1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)

0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761

T = 53.0608\°C

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m

Explanation:

When an electromagnetic wave passes through the interface between two mediums, it undergoes refraction, which means that it bents and its speed and its wavelength change.

In particular, the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a certain medium is related to the index of refraction of the medium by:

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 is the wavelength in a vacuum (air is a good approximation of vacuum)

n is the refractive index of the medium

In this problem:

\lambda_0 = 5.89\cdot 10^{-7} m is the original wavelength of the wave

n = 1.47 is the index of refraction of corn oil

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in corn oil is:

\lambda=\frac{5.89\cdot 10^{-7}}{1.47}=4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction
satela [25.4K]
a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes.  This one isn't bad.  The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No.  That's silly. 
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity. 

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.

What is the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 45 Hertz and a wavelength of 3 meters?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Explanation:

By using v=( f )x( lambda )

v= 45 s^-1 x 3 m

Therefore v = 135 ms^-1
