Dominic is the star discus thrower on South's varsity track and field team. In last year's regional competition, Dominic whirled

the 1.6 kg discus in a circle with a radius of 1.1m, ultimately reaching a speed of 52 m/s before launch. Determine the net force acting upon the discus in the moments before launch.

Answer:

The net force is 3933.1 N

Explanation:

Centripetal force (F) = mv^2/r

m is the mass of the discus = 1.6 kg

v is the speed of the discus = 52 m/s

r is the radius of the circle = 1.1 m

F = 1.6×52^2/1.1 = 3933.1 N

How are volcanoes distributed
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Volcanic activity is widespread over the earth, but tends to be concentrated in specific locations. Volcanoes are most likely to occur along the margins of tectonic plates, especially in subduction zones where oceanic plates dive under continental plates. As the oceanic plate subducts beneath the surface, intense heat and pressure melts the rock. Molten rock material, magma, can then ooze its way toward the surface where it accumulates at the surface to create a volcano. Volcanic activity can be found along the Mid-ocean ridge system as well. Here, oceanic plates are diverging and magma spreads across the ocean floor, ultimately being exposed at the surface. Crustal spreading long the ridge is partly responsible for the volcanic activity of Iceland. It is also thought that a "hot spot" lies beneath the island that contributes to volcanism.

One string of a certain musical instrument is 70.0 cm long and has a mass of 8.79 g . It is being played in a room where the spe
Svetach [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of linear mass density, and the expression of the wavelength with which we can find the frequency of the string. With these values it will be possible to find the voltage value. Later we will apply concepts related to harmonic waves in order to find the fundamental frequency.

The linear mass density is given as,

\mu = \frac{m}{l}

\mu = \frac{8.79*10^{-3}}{70*10^{-2}}

\mu = 0.01255kg/m

The expression for the wavelength of the standing wave for the second overtone is

\lambda = \frac{2}{3} l

Replacing we have

\lambda = \frac{2}{3} (70*10^{-2})

\lambda = 0.466m

The frequency of the sound wave is

f_s = \frac{v}{\lambda_s}

f_s = \frac{344}{0.768}

f_s = 448Hz

Now the velocity of the wave would be

v = f_s \lambda

v = (448)(0.466)

v = 208.768m/s

The expression that relates the velocity of the wave, tension on the string and linear mass density is

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu}

T= \mu v^2

T = (0.01255kg/m)(208.768m/s)^2

T = 547N

The tension in the string is 547N

PART B) The relation between the fundamental frequency and the n^{th} harmonic frequency is

f_n = nf_1

Overtone is the resonant frequency above the fundamental frequency. The second overtone is the second resonant frequency after the fundamental frequency. Therefore

n=3

Then,

f_3 = 3f_1

Rearranging to find the fundamental frequency

f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}

f_1 = \frac{448Hz}{3}

f_1 = 149.9Hz

two identical small charged spheres are a certain distance apart, and each one initially experiences an electrostatic force of m
alexdok [17]
The electrostatic force is directly proportional to the product of the charges, by Coulomb's law.

F α Qq

If the charges are now half the initial charges: 

<span>F α (1/2)Q *(1/2)q
</span>
F α (1/4)Q<span>q

The new force when the charges are each halved is (1/4) the first initial force experienced at full charge.</span>
