Answer:

Ub = 221.99m/s

Explanation:

(Ma x Ua)+(Mb x Ub) = (Ma + Mb)V

(331 x 3.87)+(208 x Ub) = (331 + 208)88

(1257.8) + (208 x Ub) = 47432

(208 x Ub) = 47432 - 1257.8

(208 x Ub) = 46174.2

Ub = 46174.2/208 = 221.99m/s

Ub = 221.99m/s

A ball of mass m and weight mg is held at rest by two strings. One string makes an angle θ with the vertical. The other is horiz

malfutka [58]

Answer:

W = M g weight of ball

T cos θ = W balancing vertical forces

T sin θ = F balancing horizontal forces

tan θ = F / W dividing equations

F = W tan θ when θ equals zero F equals zero

Help greatly appreciated.

Answer:

If Kepler’s laws define the motion of the planets, Newton’s laws define motion. Thinking on Kepler’s laws, Newton realized that all motion, whether it was the orbit of the Moon around the Earth or an apple falling from a tree, followed the same basic principles. “To the same natural effects,” he wrote, “we must, as far as possible, assign the same causes.” Previous Aristotelian thinking, physicist Stephen Hawking has written, assigned different causes to different types of motion. By unifying all motion, Newton shifted the scientific perspective to a search for large, unifying patterns in nature. Newton outlined his laws in Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (“Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy,”) published in 1687.

Law I. Every body perseveres in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed theron.

In essence, a moving object won’t change speed or direction, nor will a still object start moving, unless some outside force acts on it. The law is regularly summed up in one word: inertia.

Law II. The alteration of motion is ever proportional to the motive force impressed; and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed.

Newton’s second law is most recognizable in its mathematical form, the iconic equation: F=ma. The strength of the force (F) is defined by how much it changes the motion (acceleration, a) of an object with some mass (m).

Law III. To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and directed to contrary parts.

As Newton himself described: “If you press a stone with your finger, the finger is also pressed by the stone.”

Find the intensity of a 55 dB sound given I 0=10^-12W/m^2

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

Explanation:

β(dB)=10 × $log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_{0} })$

$I_{0}$ = $10^{-12}$ W/ $m^{2}$

β=55 dB

Therefore plugging into the equation the values,

55=10 $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

5.5= $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

$10^{5.5}$ = $\frac{I}{10^{-12} }$

316227.76× $10^{-12}$ = I

I= 3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

It takes 5.0 seconds for a wave with a wavelength of 2.5 m to travel past your location. What’s the period of the wave. What is

Anna35 [415]

(a) Period of the wave
The period of a wave is the time needed for a complete cycle of the wave to pass through a certain point.
So, if an entire cycle of the wave passes through the given location in 5.0 seconds, this means that the period is equal to 5.0 s: T=5.0 s.

(b) Frequency of the wave
The frequency of a wave is defined as
$f= \frac{1}{T}$
since in our problem the period is $T=5.0 s$ , the frequency is
$f= \frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.2 Hz$

(c) Speed of the wave
The speed of a wave is given by the following relationship between frequency f and wavelength $\lambda$ :
$v=f \lambda = (0.2 Hz)(2.5 m)=0.5 m/s$

How can you tell if something has a lot of kinetic energy? How can you tell if something only has a little bit of kinetic energy

dezoksy [38]

Based on the equation KE = 1/2(m)(v^2), Kinetic Energy can be measured based on velocity. If an object has a large velocity, it have a larger kinetic energy than if the velocity is small.
