Is Newton's third law of motion relevant to dropping an egg

1 answer:

8 0

Newton's third law states, that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the third law of motion is relevant to the egg being dropped, as the forces for gravity are pulling downwards, the air drag is pushing up on the egg. As well as the force of the ground when the egg lands.

Resistance increases with the length of the wire

Marta_Voda [28]

If the length of the wire increases, then the amount of resistance will also increase.

1. Take a long piece of wire and cut it 10 pieces. Those pieces should all be different sizes, one should be 5___ (units in meter, cm, inches, etc.), and the next should be 5 ___ (units in meter, cm, inches, etc.) more than the one before.
2. Take one piece of wire and measure the resistance using ___ and record the results in the data table.
3. Repeat the previous step with all the pieces of wire.
4. Compare and contrast the results you have found.

I hope this helps a bit :)

In lab, your instructor generates a standing wave using a thin string of length L = 1.65 m fixed at both ends. You are told that

erik [133]

Answer:

On the standing waves on a string, the first antinode is one-fourth of a wavelength away from the end. This means

$\frac{\lambda}{4} = 0.275~m\\\lambda = 1.1~m$

This means that the relation between the wavelength and the length of the string is

$3\lambda/2 = L$

By definition, this standing wave is at the third harmonic, n = 3.

Furthermore, the standing wave equation is as follows:

$y(x,t) = (A\sin(kx))\sin(\omega t) = A\sin(\frac{\omega}{v}x)\sin(\omega t) = A\sin(\frac{2\pi f}{v}x)\sin(2\pi ft) = A\sin(\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}x)\sin(\frac{2\pi v}{\lambda}t) = (2.45\times 10^{-3})\sin(5.7x)\sin(59.94t)$

The bead is placed on x = 0.138 m. The maximum velocity is where the derivative of the velocity function equals to zero.

$v_y(x,t) = \frac{dy(x,t)}{dt} = \omega A\sin(kx)\cos(\omega t)\\a_y(x,t) = \frac{dv(x,t)}{dt} = -\omega^2A\sin(kx)\sin(\omega t)$

$a_y(x,t) = -(59.94)^2(2.45\times 10^{-3})\sin((5.7)(0.138))\sin(59.94t) = 0$

For this equation to be equal to zero, sin(59.94t) = 0. So,

$59.94t = \pi\\t = \pi/59.94 = 0.0524~s$

This is the time when the velocity is maximum. So, the maximum velocity can be found by plugging this time into the velocity function:

$v_y(x=0.138,t=0.0524) = (59.94)(2.45\times 10^{-3})\sin((5.7)(0.138))\cos((59.94)(0.0524)) = 0.002~m/s$

A ball of moist clay falls 15.0 m to the ground. It is in contact with the ground for 20.0 ms before stopping. (a) What is the m

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground or moving down

Explanation:

Vf² - Vo² = 2gS

where

Vf = velocity of clay as it hits the ground

Vo = initial velocity of clay = 0

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2 (constant)

S = distance travelled by clay = 15 m

Substituting appropriate values,

Vf² - 0 = 2(9.8)(15)

Vf = 17.15 m/sec.

Formula to use is,

V - Vf = aT

where

V = velocity of clay when it stops = 0

Vf = 17.15 m/sec (as determined above)

a = acceleration

T = 20 ms

Put the values to find acceleration

a=(V-Vf)/T

a=(0-17.15)/20

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground

Suppose that the Sun started shrinking in size, without losing any mass. What would be the effect of the Sun's change on the orb

adell [148]

Answer:

F = G M m / R^2 gravitational force on planet of mass m.

None of these quantities change in the given hypothesis so

there will be no change in the orbit of mass m
