A 330 kg piano slides 3.6 m down a 28o incline and is kept from accelerating by a man who is pushing back on it parallel to the

incline. The effective coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.4. Calculate:
a. the force exerted by the man
b. the work is done by the man on the piano
c. the work is done by the friction force
d. the work is done by the force of gravity
e. the net work done on the piano.

Answer:

a. 652.68N

b. -2349.65J

c. -3116.12J

d. 5465.77J

e. Zero

Explanation:

a. According to equilibrium of forces, the force of gravity is equal to the sum of the frictional force and force exerted by the man in the opposite direction (since they're both resistant forces).

Fg = Fm + Fr

Fm = Fg - Fr

Fm = mgsin(28°) - umgcos(28°)

u = coefficient of frictional force.

Fm = 330*9.8*sin28 - 0.4*330*9.8*cos28

Fm = 1518.27 - 865.59

Fm = 652.68N

b. Work done by man is:

Wm = -Fm * d

Wm = -652.68 * 3.6

Wm = -2349.65J

c. Work done by friction force:

W(Fr) = -Fr * d

W(Fr) = -865.59 * 3.6

W(Fr) = -3116.12J

d. Work done by gravity:

Wg = Fg * d

Wg = 1518.27 * 3. 6

Wg = 5465.77J

e. Net work done on the piano is:

Work done by friction + work done by gravity + work done by man

= -3116.12 + 5464.77 + (-2349.65)

= 0J

A 7 ft tall person is walking away from a 20 ft tall lamppost at a rate of 5 ft/sec. Assume the scenario can be modeled with rig
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the shadow length of a person is 2.692 ft/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Height of a person, H = 20 ft

Height of a person, h = 7 ft

Rate = 5 ft/s

Now,

From Fig.1:

b = person's distance from the lamp post

a = shadow length

Also, from the similarity of the triangles, we can write:

\frac{a + b}{20} = \frac{a}{7}

a = \frac{7}{13}b

Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t t:

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\frac{db}{dt}

Now, we know that:

Rate = \frac{db}{dt} = 5\ ft/s

Thus

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\times 5 = 2.692\ ft/s

The frequency of the musical note F#3 is 1.85x102 hertz. What is its period?
g100num [7]

The period of the musical note is \text { 5. } 4 \times 10^{-3} seconds.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The frequency is defined as the number of oscillations or a complete cycle of wave occurred in a given time interval. So the frequency is inversely proportional to the time period. Thus the mathematical representation of frequency with time period is

               \text {Frequency}=\frac{1}{\text {Time period }}

As the frequency is given as 1.85 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{Hz}, the time period can be found as

               \text { Time period }=\frac{1}{\text { Frequency }}

Thus,

               \text { Time period }=\frac{1}{1.85 \times 10^{2}}=5.4 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{s}

Thus the time period for the frequency of the musical note is \text { 5. } 4 \times 10^{-3} seconds.
