Settlers are trying to determine the value of g on a distant planet. They throw a wrench downward from a height of 3 m. If the i

nitial speed of the wrench is 2 m/s, and the speed right before impact is 10 m/s, what is the value of g?

<h2>Value of g on the distant planet is 16 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Here initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

Final velocity, v = 10 m/s

Displacement, s = 3 m

We need to find acceleration, a.

Substituting

               v² = u² + 2as

               10² = 2² + 2 x a x 3

                6a =  96

                  a = 16 m/s²

Value of g on the distant planet is 16 m/s²

A car of mass m, traveling at constant speed, rides over the top of a round hill. How do the normal force of the road on the car
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The normal force will be lower than the gravitational force acting on the car. Therefore the answer is N < mg, which is <em>option B</em>.

Explanation:

Over a round hill, the centripetal force acting toward the the radius of the hill supports the gravitational force (mg) of the car. This notion can be expressed mathematically as follows:

At the top of a round hill

Normal force = Gravitational force - centripetal force

At the foot of a round hill

Normal Force = centripetal force + Gravitational force

if you use the compound pulley, you will need to pull twice the distance but with less force. the force you need is equal to one
algol13

Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort

2. A 1.30-m long gas column that is open at one end and closed at the other end has a fundamental resonant frequency 80.0 Hz. Wh
Elina [12.6K]

To solve this problem, it will be necessary to apply the concepts related to the fundamental resonance frequency in a closed organ pipe.

This is mathematically given as

f_n (2n+1)(\frac{v}{4L})

For fundamental frequency n is 0, then,

f_0 = \frac{v}{4L}

When,

v = Velocity of sound

L = Length,

Rearranging to find the velocity,

v = f_0 (4L)

v = (80Hz)(4)(1.3m)

v = 416m/s

Therefore the speed of sound in this gas is 416m/s

What role does the somatic nervous system play?
kodGreya [7K]

Explanation:

The somatic nervous system coordinates the voluntary control of movement in the body system.

The nervous system is made up of the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.

The peripheral nervous system is made up of the nerves that branches into the body from the spinal cord.

  • It consist of the somatic nervous system and the autonomous nervous system.
  • The somatic nervous system controls the voluntary actions of movement in the body.
  • It coordinates the reflex arc.

Please help if you have the time
Alex777 [14]

We know, length of segment wave is half the wavelength .

Let, wavelength of wave is \lambda.

So, length of segment will be \dfrac{\lambda}{2} .

Now, it is given that the string vibrates in four segments.

So,

L = 4\times \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\L = 2\lambda\\\\\lambda = 1\ m

Speed can be given by :

speed = wavelength \times frequency\\\\speed = 1\times 120\  m/s\\\\speed = 120\ m/s

Therefore, the wave speed in the string is 120 m/s.
