A cord is attached to the box and run through a pulley directly above the box, so that the cord is vertical. The free end of the

cord is then connected to a hanging weight. Calculate the force exerted by the ground on the box (in lb), if the hanging weight is 10.5 lb.

Answer:

The answer is given here would be a simplified equation, seeing as there are some missing variables in the question.

<u>F1 = T- 46, 674.656 gm/s² </u>

Explanation:

<em>Note: Once we have the mass of the second object and/or acceleration of the cord, we can solve for the force of the ground acting on the box.</em>

To calculate the force caused by gravity on the basic pulley system we use the following equation:

F2 = M2 x g; where g= gravitational acceleration (a constant equal to 9.8 m/s²). The mass M2 = 10.5 lb = 4762.72g

∴ F2 = 4762.72g x 9.8 m/s²

= 46, 674.656 gm/s² or 46, 674.656 N

But since this F2 is acting in a downlowrd direction, it would be negative.

Tension of the cord, T = Mass, x × acceleration. ( x is in the pulley diagram)

⇒ F1 = T - F2

<u>F1 = T- 46, 674.656 gm/s² </u>

The true statement about the wave is that, the wave has traveled 97. 2 cm in 1 second.

In Physics, we define a wave as a disturbance along a medium that transfers energy. The wavelength of a wave is the distance covered by the wave while the frequency of the wave is the number of cycles of the wave completed per second.

The period of the wave is the inverse of the frequency of the wave. It is defined as the time taken for the wave to complete a cycle and it is measured in seconds.

The wave formula is given as;

v = λf

v = velocity of the wave (distance traveled by the wave in one second)

λ = wavelength of the wave

f = frequency of the wave

So;

λ = 32.4 cm

f =  3 hertz

v = 32.4 cm × 3 hertz

v = 97. 2 cms-1

Hence, the true statement about the wave is that, the wave has traveled 97. 2 cm in 1 second.

Two families meet at the park at 10:00am. Each family uses a different way of transportation to get there. The Gonzalez family l
pav-90 [236]

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.
