It seems like the question is asking for the frequency.
Given: 
Time period (T) = 2.4 sec

Frequency (f) =? 

We know that the formula for frequency is:

Frequency (f) = 1/time period (T) 

= 1 / 2.4 s 

= 0.42 Hz. is the frequency for this problem.

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. What is the earth's angular speed? What is the speed of a point
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

a) w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

b) v1 = 463.1 m/s

c) v1 = 440.433 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The radius of the earth,  R = 6.37 * 10 ^6 m

- The time period for 1 revolution T = 24 hrs

Find:

What is the earth's angular speed?

What is the speed of a point on the equator?

What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 1/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator?

Solution:

- The angular speed w of the earth can be related with the Time period T of the earth revolution by:

                                  w = 2π / T

                                  w = 2π / 24*3600

                                  w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

- The speed of the point on the equator v1 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                                 v1 = R*w

                                 v1 = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                                 v1 = 463.1 m/s

- The angle θ subtended by a point on earth's surface 1/5 th between the equator and the pole wrt equator is.

                                 π/2  ........... s

                                 x     ............ 1/5 s

                                 x = π/2*5 = 18°    

- The radius of the earth R' at point where θ = 18° from the equator is:

                                R' = R*cos(18)

                                R' = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*cos(18)

                                R' = 6058230.0088 m

- The speed of the point where θ = 18° from the equator v2 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                              v2 = R'*w

                              v2 = (6058230.0088)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                              v2 = 440.433 m/s

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!
Anon25 [30]

In several of the questions you've posted during the past day, we've already said that a wave with larger amplitude carries more energy.  That idea is easy to apply to this question.

650 N boy and a 419 N girl sit on a 150 N porch swing that is 2.0 m long. If the swing is supported by a chain at each end, what
Sergio039 [100]

The tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.

<h3>Principle of moments</h3>

The Principle of Moments states that when a body is in equip, the sum of clockwise moment about a point is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moment about the same point.

The formula for calculating moment is given below:

  • Moment = Force × perpendicular distance from the pivot

<h3>Calculating the tension in the chains</h3>

From the principle of moments:

Let tension in chain 1 be T1 and tension in chain 2 be T2.

T1 + T2 = 150 + 650 + 419

T1 + T2 =1219

Taking all distances from chain 1,

Sum of Moments = 0

419 × 0.5 + 150 × 0.85 + 650 × 0.9 = T2 × 1.7

T2 = 922/17

T2 = 542.35 N

Then, T1 = 1219 - 542.35

T1 = 676.65 N

Therefore, the tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.
