Which of the following is best described as an inclined plane twisted into a spiral?

Question 4. A tuning fork ‘A’ produces 6 beats/sec with another fork ‘B’ of un-known frequency. On

8090 [49]

Clever problem.

We know that the beat frequency is the DIFFERENCE between the frequencies of the two tuning forks. So if Fork-A is 256 Hz and the beat is 6 Hz, then Fork-B has to be EITHER 250 Hz OR 262 Hz. But which one is it ?

Well, loading Fork-B with wax increases its mass and makes it vibrate SLOWER, and when that happens, the beat drops to 5 Hz. That means that when Fork-B slowed down, its frequency got CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A ... their DIFFERENCE dropped from 6 Hz to 5 Hz.

If slowing down Fork-B pushed it CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A, then its natural frequency must be ABOVE Fork-A.

The natural frequency of Fork-B, after it gets cleaned up and returns to its normal condition, is 262 Hz. While it was loaded with wax, it was 261 Hz.

A piece of wood 400N in weight and 50cm X 30cm X 20cm in size lies on 50cm X 20cm face. Calculate the pressure exerted by it.

Serga [27]

Answer:

P = 4000 [Pa]

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the relationship between Force and the area where the body rests.

The support area is equal to:

$A=50*20=1000[cm^{2} ]$

But we must convert from square centimeters to square meters.

$1000[cm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2}m^{2} }{100^{2}m^{2} }=0.1[m^{2} ]$

And the pressure is:

$P=\frac{F}{A} \\P=400/0.1\\P=4000[N/m^{2} ]or 4000[Pa]$

A policeman is chasing a criminal across a rooftop at 10 m/s. He decides to jump to the next building which is 2 meters across f

valina [46]

Answer:

They will meet at a distance of 7.57 m

Given:

Initial velocity of policeman in the x- direction, $u_{x} = 10 m/s$

The distance between the buildings, $d_{x} = 2.0 m$

The building is lower by a height, h = 2.5 m

Solution:

Now,

When the policeman jumps from a height of 2.5 m, then his initial velocity, u was 0.

Thus

From the second eqn of motion, we can write:

$h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$2.5 = \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times t^{2}$

t = 0.707 s

Now,

When the policeman was chasing across:

$d_{x} = u_{x}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$d_{x} = 10\times 0.707 + \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 0.5 = 9.57 m$

The distance they will meet at:

9.57 - 2.0 = 7.57 m

An Alaskan rescue plane traveling 41 m/s drops a package of emergency rations from a height of 192 m to a stranded party of expl

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a)The package strikes 256.2 m in the ground relative to the point directly below where it was released

b) The horizontal component will not change it remains same as 41 m/s

c) Vertical component of velocity = 61.41 m/s

Explanation:

a) Consider the vertical motion of plane,

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Displacement, s = 192 m

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

192 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

t = 6.26 seconds

Now we need to find horizontal distance traveled in 6.26 seconds by the package.

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 41 m/s

Time, t = 6.26 s

Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 41 x 6.26 + 0.5 x 0 x 6.26²

s = 256.52 m

The package strikes 256.2 m in the ground relative to the point directly below where it was released

b) The horizontal component will not change it remains same as 41 m/s

c) We have equation of motion, v = u+ at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Time, t = 6.26 s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting

v = u+ at

v = 0 + 9.81 x 6.26 = 61.41 m/s

Vertical component of velocity = 61.41 m/s

Coiling wire around an iron core and applying an electric current through the wire creates a temporary magnet called an electrom

Serggg [28]

Answer:

C) Use a battery with more voltage.

Explanation:

The equation for the magnetic field around a coil is given by,

B = μ₀NI

where,

B = Magnetic flux density

μ₀ = permeability

N = number of turns per meter

I = Current in the wire

So when using a higher voltage battery, more current passes through the battery as resistance of the wire remains the same.
