While moving in, a new homeowner is pushing a box across the floor at a constant velocity. The coefficient of kinetic friction b

etween the box and the floor is 0.43. The pushing force is directed downward at an angle θ below the horizontal. When θ is greater than a certain value, it is not possible to move the box, no matter how large the pushing force is. Find that value of θ.

Answer:

\theta = 66.7 degree

Explanation:

since force is applied downwards at some angle with the horizontal

so here we will have

F_n = mg + Fsin\theta

now we know that the box will not move if applied force is balanced by frictional force on it

so we will have

Fcos\theta = \mu F_n

F cos\theta = \mu (mg + F sin\theta)

F(cos\theta - \mu sin\theta) = \mu mg

F = \frac{\mu mg}{cos\theta - \mu sin\theta}

so here we can say

cos\theta - \mu sin\theta > 0

tan\theta = \frac{1}{\mu}

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{1}{\mu}

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{0.43})

\theta = 66.7 degree

A musical note has a frequency of 512 Hz. If the wavelength of the note is 0.685 m, what is the speed of the sound of that note?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

350.72 m/s

Explanation:

Formula for velocity of wave is;

v = fλ

Where;

v is speed

f is frequency

λ is wavelength

We are given;

f = 512 Hz

λ = 0.685 m

Thus;

v = 512 × 0.685

v = 350.72 m/s
