Shoo the fly flaps its wings back and forth 140 times each second. The frequency of the wing flapping is ____ Hz.

Physics
1 answer:
ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

140 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency is the reciprocal of period hence f=1/T

Here, the frequency is 140 times per second hence the period will be 1/140= 0.0071428571428 s

Rounded off to 3 significant figures then the period is 0.00714 s or 0.714 ms

Otherwise, the frequency is already given as 140 cycles per second which is equivalent to 140 Hz

Elena (60.0 kg) and Madison (65.0 kg) are ice-skating at the Rockefeller ice rink in New Yok city. Their friend Tanner sees Elen
Bas_tet [7]

1. +72.0 kg m/s

The momentum of an object is given by:

p = mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

Taking "to the right" as positive direction, for Elena we have

m = 60.0 kg is the mass

v = +1.20 m/s is the velocity

So, Elena's momentum is

p_e=(60.0 kg)(+1.20 m/s)=+72.0 kg m/s

2. -162.5 kg m/s

Here Madison is moving in the opposite direction of Elena (to the left), so her velocity is

v = -2.50 m/s

while her mass is

m = 65.0 kg

Therefore, her momentum is

p_m= (65.0 kg)(-2.50 m/s)=-162.5 kg m/s

3. -90.5 kg m/s

The total momentum of Elena and Madison is equal to the algebraic sum of their momenta; taking into account the correct signs, we have:

p=p_e + p_m = +72.0 kg m/s - 162.5 kg m/s =-90.5 kg m/s

4. 0.72 m/s to the left

We can find the final speed of Elena and Madison by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the final momentum must be equal to the initial momentum (before the collision).

The initial momentum is the one calculated at the previous step:

p_i = -90.5 kg m/s

while the final momentum (after the collision) is given by

p_f = (m_e + m_m) v

where

m_e is Elena's mass

m_m is Madison's mass

v is their final velocity

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

p_i = p_f\\p_i = (m_e + m_m) v

So we can find v:

v=\frac{p_i}{m_e + m_m}=\frac{-90.5 kg m/s}{60.0 kg+65.0 kg}=-0.72 m/s

and the direction is to the left, since the sign is negative.

If a car changes ita velocity from 32km/hr to 54km/hr in 8.0 seconds, what is its acceleration
Andrews [41]
Firstly, let's convert the velocities in km/hr to m/s
32*1000/3600=8.89m/s
54*1000/3600=15m/s
From the formula, acceleration=V-U/t
15-8.89/8=0.76m/s²
hope this helps.

The charges Q1=Q and Q2=4Q that are a distance d apart, repel each other with a force of 1.60 N. What would be the force between
gladu [14]

Answer:

50.4 N

Explanation:

Q1 = Q

Q2 = 4 Q

Distance = d

The force is given by

F = \frac{KQ_{1}Q_{2}}{d^{2}}

1.60 = \frac{4KQ^{2}}{d^{2}}    .... (1)

Now,

Q3 = 2 Q

Q4 = 7 Q

distance = d/3

F' = \frac{9KQ_{3}Q_{4}}{d^{2}}

F' = \frac{126KQ^{2}}{d^{2}}   .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1), we get

F' / 1.60 = 126 / 4

F' = 50.4 N

Thus, the force is 50.4 N.

How does the lever arm change if you decrease the angle of the force?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The lever arm could decrease or increase depending of the initial angle.

Explanation:

The lever arm d is calculated by:

d = rsin(θ)

where r is the radius and θ the angle between the force and the radius.

So, the increse or decrees of d depends of the sin of the angle θ, if the initial angle is greather than 90° and the angle decrease to an angle closer to 90°, the lever arm will increase but if the initial angle is 90° or lower and the angle decrease, the lever arm will decrease.
