A 3500 N is force is applied to a spring that has a spring of constant of k= 14000 N/m. How far from equilibrium will the spring

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

F= -K × x

So,

$x = \frac{-F}{K}$

Now

$x = \frac{-3500}{14000} \\\\$

= -0.250m

= 25.0 cm

Hence, the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

A uniform solid disk with a mass of 24.3 kg and a radius of 0.364 m is free to rotate about a frictionless axle. Forces of 90.0

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

a. $-12.7 Nm$

b. $-7.9 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

I have attached an illustration of a solid disk with the respective forces applied, as stated in this question.

Forces applied to the solid disk include:

$F_1 = 90.0N\\F_2 = 125N$

Other parameters given include:

Mass of solid disk, $M = 24.3kg$

and radius of solid disk, $r = 0.364m$

a.) The formula for determining torque ( $T$ ), is $T = r * F$

Hence the net torque produced by the two forces is given as a summation of both forces:

$T = T_{125} + T_{90}\\= -r(125)sin90 + r(90)sin90\\= 0.364(-125 + 90)\\= -12.7 Nm$

b.) The angular acceleration of the disk can be found thus:

using the formula for the Moment of Inertia of a solid disk;

$I_{disk} = {\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2$

where $M$ = Mass of solid disk

and $r$ = radius of solid disk

We then relate the torque and angular acceleration ( $\alpha$ ) with the formula:

$T = I\alpha \\-12.7 = ({\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2)\alpha \\\alpha = -{\frac{12.7}{1.61}} = -7.9 rad/s^2$

Communication with submerged submarines via radio waves is difﬁcult because seawater is conductive and absorbselectromagnetic wa

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

D. 4000 km

Explanation:

f = Frequency of wave that is being transmitted = 76 Hz

$\lambda$ = Wavelength of wave that is being transmitted

v = The velocity of electromagnetic waves through air = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Velocity of a wave is given by

$v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{76}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3947368.42105\ m=3947.36842105 km\approx 4000\ km$

Hence, the approximate wavelength of the waves is 4000 km

The speed of a wave changes depending on the temperature of the medium. What do you think is the reason for this?

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: Because of the different wave speed from light and sound. Explanation: There is a major difference between the speed wave of light and sound, light travels at 186, 282 miles per second, and sound can travel at different speeds and its significantly slower so it is easier to measure it
