Answer:

Distance between two adjacent wave crests = 24m

Explanation:

Distance= speed × time

Distance traveled by waves in 60 seconds (15 crests)= 15 × distance

15 × distance = 6,0 (meters/second) × 60 seconds

distance = (360 meters) / 15 = 24 meters (between two adyacent waves)

Answer:

Approximately 8.4 \times 10^{2}\; \rm N, assuming that g = 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

Let m and a denote the mass and acceleration of Spiderman, respectively.

There are two forces on Spiderman:

  • Downward gravitational attraction from the earth: W = m \cdot g.
  • Upward tension force from the strand of web F(\text{tension}).

The directions of these two forces are exactly opposite of one another. Besides, because Spiderman is accelerating upwards, the magnitude of F(\text{tension}) (which points upwards) should be greater than that of W (which points downwards towards the ground.)

Subtract the smaller force from the larger one to find the net force on Spiderman:

(\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W.

On the other hand, apply Newton's Second Law of motion to find the value of the net force on Spiderman:

(\text{Net Force}) = m \cdot a.

Combine these two equations to get:

m \cdot a = (\text{Net Force}) = F(\text{tension}) - W.

Therefore:

\begin{aligned}& F(\text{tension})\\ &= m \cdot a + W \\ &= m \cdot (a + g)\\ &= 76\; \rm kg \times \left(1.3\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2} + 9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right)\\ &\approx 8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N\end{aligned}.

By Newton's Third Law of motion, Spiderman would exert a force of the same size on the strand of web. Hence, the size of the force in the strand of the web should be approximately 8.4\times 10^{2}\; \rm N (downwards.)

If I work out rotational energy to be 102.2J which equals kg.M/s^2, and I hadn't factored time into it, would that be Joules per
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

0.057 joules is needed to create the total rotational energy each second.

Explanation:

The energy rate is the ratio of total energy to time, which coincides with the definition of power at constant rate:

\dot W = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t}

\dot W = \frac{102.2\,J}{\left(30\,min\right)\cdot \left(60\,\frac{s}{min} \right)}

\dot W = 0.057\,\frac{J}{s}

\dot W = 0.057\,W

0.057 joules is needed to create the total rotational energy each second.

Answer:

Elastic potential energy, E=2.35\times 10^{-8}\ J

Explanation:

Charge, q=9.4\times 10^{-10}\ C

Potential, V = 50 V

It is required to find the electric potential energy in a capacitor stored in it. The formula of the electric potential energy in a capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}qV\\\\E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.4\times 10^{-10}\times 50\\\\E=2.35\times 10^{-8}\ J

So, the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor is 2.35\times 10^{-8}\ J
