Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of force will be in upward direction making an angle of θ with the vertical .

Reaction force R = mg - F cosθ

Friction force = μR

= .36 (mg - F cosθ )

Horizontal component of applied force

= F sinθ

For equilibrium

F sinθ = .36 (mg - F cosθ)

F sinθ + .36 F cosθ =.36 mg

F (sinθ + .36 cosθ) = .36 mg

F R( cosδsinθ +sinδ cosθ) = .36 mg ( Rcosδ = 1 . Rsinδ= .36 )

F R sin( θ+δ )  = . 36 mg

F = .36 mg / Rsin( θ+δ )

For minimum F , sin( θ+δ ) should be maximum

sin( θ+ δ ) = sin 90

θ+ δ  = 90

Rsinδ / Rcosδ  = .36

δ = 20⁰

θ = 70⁰ Ans

A teacher performing demonstration finds that a piece of cork displaces 23.5 ml of water. The piece of cork has a mass 5.7 g. Wh
Sedbober [7]

Answer: 0.24g/ml

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of water displaced = 23.5 ml

Mass of cork = 5.7 g

Density of the cork = ?

Recall that density is obtained by dividing the mass of a substance by the volume of water displaced.

i.e Density = Mass/volume

Density = 5.7g /23.5ml

Density = 0.24g/ml

Thus, the density of the piece of cork is 0.24g/ml

a crude approximation of voice production is to consider the breathing passages and mouth to be a resonating tube closed at one
prohojiy [21]

The fundamental frequency of the tube is 0.240 m long, by taking air temperature to be 37^oC is 367.42 Hz.

A standing wave is basically a superposition of two waves propagating opposite to each other having equal amplitude. This is the propagation in a tube.

The fundamental frequency in the tube is given by

f=\frac{v_T}{4L}

where, v_T=v\sqrt{\frac{T}{273} }

Since, T=37+273 K = 310 K

v = 331 m/s

\therefore v_T=331\sqrt{\frac{310}{273} } = 352.72 \ m/s

Using this, we get:

f=\frac{352.72}{4(0.240)} \\f=367.42 \ Hz

Hence, the fundamental frequency is 367.42 Hz.

F all of the energy in a falling object's gravitational potential energy store is transferred to its kinetic energy store by the
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The options are not shown, so let's derive the relationship.

For an object that is at a height H above the ground, and is not moving, the potential energy will be:

U = m*g*H

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Now, the kinetic energy of an object can be written as:

K = (1/2)*m*v^2

where v is the velocity.

Now, when we drop the object, the potential energy begins to transform into kinetic energy, and by the conservation of the energy, by the moment that H is equal to zero (So the potential energy is zero) all the initial potential energy must now be converted into kinetic energy.

Uinitial = Kfinal.

m*g*H = (1/2)*m*v^2

v^2 = 2*g*H

v = √(2*g*H)

So we expressed the final velocity (the velocity at which the object impacts the ground) in terms of the height, H.
