Answer:

a) A = 3 cm,  b)  T = 0.4 s,   f = 2.5 Hz,

2) A standing wave the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains

Explanation:

a) in an oscillatory movement the amplitude is the highest value of the signal in this case

          A = 3 cm

b) the period of oscillation is the time it takes for the wave to repeat itself in this case

          T = 0.4 s

the period is the inverse of the frequency

         f = 1 /T

         f = 1 /, 0.4

         f = 2.5 Hz

2) a traveling wave is a wave for which as time increases the displacement increases, in the case of a transverse wave the oscillation is perpendicular to the displacement and in the case of a longitudinal wave the oscillation is in the same direction of the displacement.

A standing wave occurs when a traveling wave bounces off some object and there are two waves, one that travels in one direction and the other that travels in the opposite direction. In this case, the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains.

A 1.5-kg block slides at rest starts sliding down a snow-covered hill Point A, which has an altitude of 10 m. There is no fricti
damaskus [11]

Answer:

the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of the block slides = 1.5 - kg

height = 10 m

Force constant  = 200 N/m

distance of rough surface patch = 20 m

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15

In order to determine the speed of the block when it reaches point B.

We consider the equation for the energy conservation in the system which can be represented by:

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=gh

v^2=2 \times g \times   h

v^2=2 \times 9.8 \times   10

v=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times   10

v=\sqrt{196

v = 14 m/s

Thus; the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s

Is velocity ratio of a machine affected by applying oil on it?Explain with reason.​
disa [49]
Factors affecting friction

The intensity of friction depends on following factors: i) The area involved in friction. ii) The pressure applied on the surfaces. Force = Pressure ´ Area Frictional force will increase, if the area of contact will increase or if pressure applied on the surface increased.

Methods to reduce friction

i) Polish the contact surface. ii) Put oil or grease so that it fills in the small gaps of the flat parts. iii) Use ball bearings to reduce area of contact between rotating parts.

Lubrication

Following methods can be used to reduce friction: Oil is either thin or viscous. It depends upon SAE No. of oil. (SAE means Society of Automotive Engineers). If we use very viscous oil, it does not reach all the parts. Very thin oil will flows away easily and gets wasted. Grease is used in such cases. It is generally used around ball-bearing. Normal grease or oil is never used where there is high pressure, high temperature and high speed. Special lubricants are used in such cases. In cold season the oil becomes thick and in hot season it becomes thin. Therefore selection of lubrication also depends on the season. It is always advisable to refer operating manual of the equipment before selecting the lubricant.
