A worker pushes a crate horizontally across a warehouse floor with a force of 245 N at an angle of 55 degrees below the horizont

aev [14]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

For exerted by the worker = 245 N

angle made with horizontal = 55°

we need to calculate Force which is not used to move the crate = ?

Movement of crate is due to the horizontal component of the force.

Crate will not move due to vertical force acting on the it.

$F_y = F sin \theta$

$F_y = 245\times sin 55^0$

$F_y =200.69$

hence, worker's force not used to move the crate is equal to 200.69

The correct answer is option A

Answer:

The amplitude of the eardrum's oscillation is 6.65×10^-13 m.

Explanation:

Given data:

The sound has a frequency of 262 Hz

The sound level is 84 dB

The air density is 1.21 kg/m^3

The speed of sound is 346 m/s

Solution:

As, Intensity of sound is given by,

I = Io×10^(s/10 db)

I = 2×π^2×ρ×v×f^2×Sm^2

Thus,

Sm = √(Io×10^(s/10 db)) / √( 2×π^2×ρ×v×f^2)

Now, put the values,

Sm = √( 10^-12 × 10^(84/10) ) / √( 2×(3.14)^2×1.21×346×(262)^2 )

Sm = √(2.51×10^-4 / 5.66×10^8)

Sm = √0.443×10^-12

Sm = 6.65×10^-13 m.

A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of a=3jm/s^2 and an initial velocity of Vi=5im/s.

-BARSIC- [3]

Given the particle's acceleration is

$\vec a(t) = \left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\vec\jmath$

with initial velocity

$\vec v(0) = \left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\imath$

and starting at the origin, so that

$\vec r(0) = \vec 0$

you can compute the velocity and position functions by applying the fundamental theorem of calculus:

$\vec v(t) = \vec v(0) + \displaystyle \int_0^t \vec a(u)\,\mathrm du$

$\vec r(t) = \vec r(0) + \displaystyle \int_0^t \vec v(u)\,\mathrm du$

We have

• velocity at time <em>t</em> :

$\vec v(t) = \left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\imath + \displaystyle \int_0^t \left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\,\vec\jmath\,\mathrm du \\\\ \vec v(t) = \left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\imath + \left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\,\vec\jmath \\\\ \boxed{\vec v(t) = \left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\imath + \left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\,\vec\jmath}$

• position at time <em>t</em> :

$\vec r(t) = \displaystyle \int_0^t \left(\left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\imath + \left(3\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u\,\vec\jmath\right) \,\mathrm du \\\\ \boxed{\vec r(t) = \left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\,\vec\imath + \frac12 \left(3\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\,\vec\jmath}$
