Answer:

v=3200m/s

Explanation:

The velocity (speed) of a sound wave (any wave in fact) is related to its frequency and wavelength by the equation v=\lambda f. This is easy to remember since it's a distance divided by a time because frequency is the inverse of the period.

Since for sound traveling through the given solid object we have that f=400Hz and \lambda=8m, the speed of sound will be:

v=\lambda f=(8m)(400Hz)=3200m/s

k0ka [10]

Answer:

A. F=107.6nN

B. Repulsive

Explanation:

According to coulombs law, the force between two charges is express as

F=(Kq1q2) /r^2

If the charges are of similar charge the force will be repulsive and if they are dislike charges, force will be attractive.

Note the constant K has a value 9*10^9

Hence for a charge q1=7.10nC=7.10*10^-9, q2=4.42*10^-9 and the distance r=1.62m

If we substitute values we have

F=[(9×10^9) ×(7.10×10^-9) ×(4.42×10^-9)] /(1.62^2)

F=(282.4×10^-9)/2.6244

F=107.6×10^-9N

F=107.6nN

B. Since the charges are both positive, the force is repulsive

A capacitor is to be constructed to have a capacitance of 100uF.The area of the plates is 6.om by 0.030m and the relative permit
lara [203]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

The area of the plates is 6 m by 0.030 m, Therefore the area = 6 m × 0.03 m =  0.18 m²

the relative permittivity of dielectric (εr) is 7.0

Permittivity of free space (εo) = 8.854 × 10^(-12)

capacitance of 100uF

potential difference (V) of 12V

d = separation between plate

The capacitance (C) of a capacitor is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_o \epsilon_r A }{d}\\ 100*10^{-6}=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{d}\\ d=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{100*10^{-6}}=1.11*10^{-7}\ m

The electric field between plates is given as:

E = V /d

E = 12 / 1.11*10^{-7}=10.75*10^7\ V/m

How do you calculate the net force when there are multiple forces in different directions?​
Artyom0805 [142]

To find F_{net} we need to use vector addition and use the x and y components. First we subtract vector 2 from vector 5 which results in a vector with a  length of 3 pointing directly east, then we use the distance formula to find the length of the net force F_{net} = \sqrt{(3)^2+(4)^2} \\  which gives F_{net} = 5. We now have a magnitude but we also need a direction, since vector 4 and vector 5 are perpendicular. Using \theta = \tan^{-1} (\frac{4}{3})   where tan^-1(y/x) we get an angle of 53 degrees. The resultant force vector is 5 distance with an angle of 53 degrees north east.

Water of density 1000 kg/m3 falls without splashing at a rate of 0.373 L/s from a height of 40.5 m into a 0.64 kg bucket on a sc
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

       F_scale = 20.18 N

Explanation:

The scale reading corresponds to two factors, the first the weight of the water in the container and the second the force of the liquid that is falling at the moment of reading.

* Let's find the amount of liquid in the container for a time of t = 2.93 s

Let's use a direct proportion rule. If 0.373 l falls in one second at t = 2.93 s, how many liters are there

        V_{water} = 2.93 s (0.373 l / 1s) = 1.09 l

        V_{water} = 1.09 10⁻³ m³

the amount of water is

       ρ = m / V

       m = ρ V

       m = 1000 1.09 10⁻³

       m = 1.09 kg

so the weight of the liquid in the container for this time is

       W = mg

       W = 1.09 9.8

       W = 10.68 N

* Let's look for the force of the falling jet

Let's use Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the container and the subscript 2 is for the water at a height h

        P₁ + 1/2 ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + 1/2  ρ g v₂² + ρ g y₂

In this case, the water falls freely, so the external pressure is atmospheric.

         P₂ = P_{atm}

since they indicate that the water falls, we assume that its initial velocity is zero v₂ = 0

let's use kinematics to find the speed of a drop when it reaches the container y = 0

         v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

         v = \sqrt{0 -2 g ( 0-y_o)}

let's calculate

         v = √(2 9.8 40.5)

         v = 28.17 m / s

this is the speed in the container v₁ = 28.17 m / s

the height from where it falls is y₂ = 40.5 and reaches the container y₁ = 0

we substitute in Bernoulli's equation

         P₁ +1/2 ρ g v₁² + 0 = P_{atm} + 0 + ρ g y₂

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂

         P₁ = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂ - ½ ρ g v₁²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 1000 9.8 40.5 - ½ 1000 28.17²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 3.97 10⁵ - 3.69 10⁵

         P₁ = 1.28 10⁵ Pa

The definition of Pressure is

         P = F / A

         F = P A

We must suppose a time to carry out the reading suppose an average time of the modern equipment t = 0.1 s, in this time how much is now arriving

          m₂ = 0.373 0.2 = 0.0746 l = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³

the volume is V = A l

if the length of l = 1 m

A = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³ = 7.45 10⁻⁵ m²

the force of this jet is

            F = P A

            F = 1.28 10⁵  7.46 10⁻⁵

            F = 9.5 N

with these data let's use the equilibrium equation

           F_ scale -W - F = 0

           F_scale = W + F

           F_scale = 10.682 + 9.5

           F_scale = 20.18 N
