Answer:

elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

Explanation:

The relationship between these two forces can be found with Newton's second law.

$F_{e}$ - W = m a

K x - m g = m a

We see that elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

If a harmonic movement is desired, an extra force that increases the elastic force is applied, but to begin the movement this force is eliminated, in general , if the relationship between this external and elastic force is desired, the only requirement is that it be small for harmonic movement to occur

Ocean waves pass through two small openings, 20.0 m apart, in a breakwater. You're in a boat 70.0 m from the breakwater and init

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

λ = 5.65m

Explanation:

The Path Difference Condition is given as:

δ= $(m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{lamda}{n}$ ;

where lamda is represent by the symbol (λ) and is the wavelength we are meant to calculate.

m = no of openings which is 2

∴δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

n is the index of refraction of the medium in which the wave is traveling

To find δ we have;

δ= $\sqrt{70^2+(33+\frac{20}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{70^2+(33-\frac{20}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66+20}{2})^2}-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66-20}{2})^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{86}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{46}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+43^2}-\sqrt{4900+23^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+1849}-\sqrt{4900+529}$

δ= $\sqrt{6749}-\sqrt{5429}$

δ= 82.15 -73.68

δ= 8.47

Again remember; to calculate the wavelength of the ocean waves; we have:

δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

δ= 8.47

8.47 = $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

λ = $\frac{8.47*2}{3}$

λ = 5.65m

How do you tell a stars life expectancy based on an hr diagram?

e-lub [12.9K]

The X-axis of the H-R Diagram indicates the star's surface temperature in degrees Kelvin. The Y-axis, on the other hand, indicates luminosity, or brightness.

Main sequence refers to a roughly diagonal, slightly S-curved line stretching between the upper-left and lower-right corners on which main sequence stars chart. They maintain a predictable relationship between luminosity and temperature: the brighter, the hotter. The upper-right quadrant of the H-R diagram is home to newly discovered red giants while the lower-left quadrant of the H-R Diagram belongs almost exclusively to white dwarfs.

Why is it important to be able to trace the pole connection on a meter back to the same type of pole at the electrical source?

lozanna [386]

Answer:

Explanation:

A grounded wire is sometimes strung along the tops of the towers to provide lightning protection.

In areas where the neutral is grounded or earthed, it is essential to endure that the neutral and the live or hot wires are not confused for each other.

When this happens, the fuses on the transformer will not operate unless the fault is very close to the transformer. The fuses in the consumer's intake box, will not operate.

A 10 kg rock that has been dropped from a 60 meter high cliff experiences an average force of air resistance of 30 N. Calculate

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4086 J

Explanation:

The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff

Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance

$mgh-Fh= 0.5mv^{2}= KE$

Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be

KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J
