<span>Extremely powerful single waves have no effect on ships at sea since the depth of water allows the energy to be distributed over hundreds and thousands of feet. In deep water, the bigger the wave, the faster it moves and the slower the surface changes height. As the wave gets into shallow waters, it slows down and can start to pile up to large heights.</span>

A horizontal 810-N merry-go-round of radius 1.60 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 55 N applied tangentia
Sloan [31]

Answer:

576 joules

Explanation:

From the question we are given the following:

weight = 810 N

radius (r) = 1.6 m

horizontal force (F) = 55 N

time (t) = 4 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity

MI = 0.5 x m x r^2

mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg

MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}

MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}

angular velocity (ω) = a x t

angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI

where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m

a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}

therefore

angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules

An alternating source drives a series RLC circuit with an emf amplitude of 6.04 V, at a phase angle of +30.3°. When the potentia
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

-8.56V

Explanation:

Our values are given by,

e = 6.04 V

Φ = 30.3

VC = 5.32

We can calculate the voltage across the circuit with the emf formula, that is,

e(t) = e* sin(wt)

e(t) = 6.04 * sin(Φ + π)

e(t) = 6.04 * sin(32.5 + 180)

e(t) = -3.245 V

Now, Using Kirchoff Voltage Law,

e(t) - VR- VL - VC = 0

-3.24 - 0 - VL - 5.32 = 0

Finally we have the potential difference across the inductor.

VL = - 8.56 v

What frequency fapproach is heard by a passenger on a train moving at a speed of 18.0 m/s relative to the ground in a direction
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 18.0 m/s

Suppose a train is traveling at 30.0 m/s relative to the ground in still air. The frequency of the note emitted by the train whistle is 262 Hz .

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

f'=f(\dfrac{v+v_{p}}{v-v_{s}})

Where, f = frequency

v = speed of sound

v_{p} = speed of passenger

v_{s} = speed of source

Put the value into the formula

f'=262\times(\dfrac{344+18}{344-30})

f'=302.05\ Hz

Hence, The frequency is 302.05 Hz.
