As they vibrate, they pass the disturbance of energy to the particles next to them, which passes the energy to the particles next to them, and so on.
Energy travels down the spring and reflected like the motion of a mass on a spring.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Particle motion is the superposition of a large component due to the fluid drag toward the filter barrier and a random component due to Brownian motion.

The particles of the medium just vibrate in place. As they vibrate, they pass the unsettling influence of energy to the particles beside them, which passes the energy to the particles by them, etc.

Energy goes down the spring and reflected like the movement of a mass on a spring.

A ball is dropped from the top of a tower 40 m high. What is its velocity when it has covered 20 m? What would be its velocity w

stellarik [79]

Given :

Height from which ball is dropped , h = 40 m .

Acceleration due to gravity , g= 10 m/s² .

Initial velocity , u = 0 m/s .

To Find :

Velocity when ball covered 20 m and velocity when it hit the ground .

Solution :

Now , height when ball covered 20 m distance is , 40 - 20 = 20 m .

By equation of motion :

$v^2=u^2+2gh\\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 20}\ m/s\\\\v=20\ m/s$

Now , distance covered when body reaches ground is , 40 m .

Putting value h = 40 m in above equation , we get :

$v=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 40}\ m/s\\\\v=20\sqrt{2}\ m/s$

Hence , this is the required solution .

Answer:

<em>The coefficient of static friction = 0.392</em>

Explanation:

When the tire starts to skirt, The net force on the car is equal to the maximum friction.

F = μR................ Equation 1

R = mg.............. Equation 2

F = ma ............ Equation 3

Substituting equation 2 and 3 into Equation 1

ma = μmg.

a = μg

μ = a/g................................... Equation 4

Where F = frictional Force, μ = Coefficient of frictional force, R = normal reaction. a = total acceleration of the car. g = acceleration due to gravity.

<em>Note: The tangential acceleration is perpendicular to the radius. The total acceleration is</em>

a = √(a₁² + a₂²)........................ Equation 4

Where a₁ = tangential acceleration of the tire, a₂ = centripetal acceleration of the car.

a₁ = 2.96 m/s²

a₂ = v²/R..................... Equation 5

Where v = speed of the car = 36.1 m/s, R = radius of the circular part traveled by the car = 532 m

Substituting into equation 5

a₂ = 36.1²/532

a₂ = 1303.21/532

a₂ = 2.45 m/s².

Therefore,

a = √(2.45²+2.96²)

a = √(6.0025 + 8.7612)

a = √14.764

a = 3.84 m/s².

Substituting into equation 4

μ = 3.84/9.8

<em>μ = 0.392.</em>

<em>Thus the coefficient of static friction = 0.392</em>
