A force acts on a 9.90 kg mobile object that moves from an initial position of to a final position of in 5.40 s. Find (a) the wo

horrorfan [7]

Given that,

Mass of object = 9.90 kg

Time =5.40 s

Suppose the force is (2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k) N, initial position is (2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k) m and final position is (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k) m.

We need to calculate the displacement

Using formula of displacement

$s=r_{2}-r_{1}$

Where, $r_{1}$ = initial position

$r_{2}$ = final position

Put the value into the formula

$s= (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)-(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)$

$s= -6.80i+6.20j-0.1k$

(a). We need to calculate the work done on the object

Using formula of work done

$W=F\cdot s$

Put the value into the formula

$W=(2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k)\cdot (-6.80i+6.20j-0.1k)$

$W=-13.6+55.8-0.53$

$W=41.67\ J$

(b). We need to calculate the average power due to the force during that interval

Using formula of power

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

Where, P = power

W = work

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$P=\dfrac{41.67}{5.40}$

$P=7.71\ Watt$

(c). We need to calculate the angle between vectors

Using formula of angle

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{r_{1}r_{2}}{|r_{1}||r_{2}|})$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{(-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)\cdot(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)}{7.54\times6.778})$

$\theta=79.7^{\circ}$

Hence, (a). The work done on the object by the force in the 5.40 s interval is 41.67 J.

(b). The average power due to the force during that interval is 7.71 Watt.

(c). The angle between vectors is 79.7°

What type of waves are sound waves, and how do they<br> transfer energy?

klemol [59]

Answer:

Sound wave types - longitudinal waves

Longitudinal waves - Vibrating string the creates sound in the way it moves.

Explanation:

Longitudinal waves have particles of the medium that are displaced in a parallel direction to energy transport.

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz
