A spider can tell when its web has captured, say, a fly because the fly's thrashing causes the web threads to oscillate. A spide

r can even determine the size of the fly by the frequency of the oscillations. Assume that a fly oscillates on the capture thread on which it is caught like a block on a spring. What is the ratio of oscillation frequency for a fly with mass m to a fly with mass 2.00 m?

Answer:

Ratio of oscillation frequency is 1.41

Explanation:

Given

m2=2.00m

m1=m

The angular frequency is given as

w=\sqrt{\frac{K}{m} }\\ where \\T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} }

For two different masses m1 and m2

\frac{w_{1} }{w_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{(\frac{K}{m1} )}{(\frac{K}{m2} )} }\\\frac{w_{1} }{w_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{m2}{m1} }\\   \frac{w_{1} }{w_{2}}=\sqrt{2}\\ so\\ratio=1.41

1.20 Newton force is working on a 250 gram object. What is the acceleration?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The answer is B

Explanation:

250g = 0.25kg

F = m × a

a = F/m

= 1.2/0.25

= 4.8m/s²

Force f⃗ =−10j^n is exerted on a particle at r⃗ =(7i^+5j^)m. part a what is the torque on the particle about the origin?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Torque, \tau=0i+0j-70k

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the particle, F=-10j\ N

Position of the particle, r=(7i+5j)\ m

We need to find the torque on the particle about the origin. It is equal to the cross product of position and the force. Its formula is given by :

\tau=r\times F

\tau=(7i+5j)\times (-10j)

The cross product of vectors is given by :

\tau=\begin{pmatrix}0&0&-70\end{pmatrix}

or

\tau=0i+0j-70k

So, the torque on the particle about the origin 0i+0j-70k. Hence, this is the required solution.

Your dog ran 400 kilometers due north. Your dog then turned around and ran 300 kilometers due south. What was your dog's displac
Leno4ka [110]
400 km - 300 km = 100 km, since the dog stopped only 100 km away from where he had originally started out.

A 10 kg box is pushed with a force of 20N. What is the box's acceleration?
Rasek [7]
The following formula gives the connection between the force, the mass and the acceleration:
F=ma
In our case we know the force and the mass. F=20N and m=10kg
a=F/m
a=20m/s^2/10=2<span>m/s^2</span>
