Paul’s 10 kg baby sister Susan sits on a mat. Paul pulls the mat across the floor using a rope that is angled 30° above the floo

r. The tension is a constant 30 N and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. Use work and energy to find Susan’s speed after being pulled 3.0 m.

Answer:

The speed of Susan is 2.37 m/s

Explanation:

To visualize better this problem, we need to draw a free body diagram.

the work is defined as:

W=F*d*cos(\theta)

here we have the work done by Paul and the friction force, so:

W_p=F_p*d*cos(0)\\F_p=30N*cos(30^o)=26N\\W_p=26*3*(1)=78J

W_f=F_f*d*cos(180)\\F_f=\µ*(10*9.8-30N*sin(30^o))=16.6N\\W_p=16.6*3*(-1)=50J

Now the change of energy is:

W_p-W_f=\frac{1}{2}m*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(78J-50J)}{10kg}}\\v=2.37m/s

What is the speed of a transverse wave in a rope of length 3. 1 m and mass 86 g under a tension of 380 n?
Nitella [24]

117 m/sec is the speed of a transverse wave in a rope of length 3. 1 m and mass 86 g under a tension of 380 n.

The wave speed v is given by

v= √τ/μ

​where τ is the tension in the rope and μ is the linear mass density of the rope.

The linear mass density is the mass per unit length of rope :

μ= m / L = (0.086 kg)/(3.1 m)=0.0277 kg/m.

v= \sqrt{ \frac{380 N}{0.0277 kg/m}}  = 117.125 m/sec (approx. 117 m/sec

In physics, a transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave's advance. This is in contrast to a longitudinal wave which travels in the direction of its oscillations. Water waves are an example of transverse wave.

Transverse waves commonly occur in elastic solids due to the shear stress generated; the oscillations in this case are the displacement of the solid particles away from their relaxed position, in directions perpendicular to the propagation of the wave. These displacements correspond to a local shear deformation of the material. Hence a transverse wave of this nature is called a shear wave. Since fluids cannot resist shear forces while at rest, propagation of transverse waves inside the bulk of fluids is not possible.

The texture of obsidian is best described as glassy.Why does obsidian contain few or no mineral grains? by the way I put it unde
Brrunno [24]

hi, so the material that would normally form mineral crystals does not have time to form a crystalline structure because of very rapid cooling after volcanically erupting into the air or onto the surface. Obsidian is a volcanic glass.
