A common pickup for an electric guitar consists of a coil of wire around a small permanent magnet, as described in Figure 25.5.

Why will this type of pickup fail with nylon strings?
Physics

Guitar pickups are tiny coils with magnets inside them and they work via  the principal of electromagnetic inductance. The metal strings vibrate within the magnetic field of the pickup which generates an electrical current. Since nylon is not a metal, it will not cause <span>fluctuations in that magnetic field. Hope this answer helps.</span>

What is the momentum of a compact car that is 750 kg and is travelling 30 m/s?
MakcuM [25]
The formula for momentum is p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity.

To solve for p, plug in 750 kg for mass and 30 m/s for velocity. • is a multiplication symbol

p = mv
p = 750kg • 30m/s
p = 22500 kg•m/s

A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.89 m above the ground at an angle of 62 ∘ with an initial speed of 29 m/s headin
KatRina [158]

consider the motion in Y-direction

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Sin62 = 25.6 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel

Y = vertical displacement = - 0.89 m

using the equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

- 0.89 = (25.6) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 5.3 sec


consider the motion along the horizontal direction :

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Cos62 = 13.6 m/s

a = acceleration = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 5.3 sec

X = horizontal displacement =?

using the equation

X = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

X = (13.6) (5.3) + (0.5) (0) t²

X = 72.1 m


d = distance traveled by the center fielder to catch the ball = 107 - x = 107 - 72.1 = 34.9 m

t = time taken = 5.3 sec

v = speed of center fielder

using the equation

v = d/t

v = 34.9/5.3

v = 6.6 m/s

Halleys comet has period of 75.3 years. Using Kepler’s third law, find it’s semimajor axis expressed in astronomical units?
natta225 [31]

Answer: 17.83 AU

Explanation:

According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion <em>“The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.  </em>

T^{2}\propto a^{3}  (1)

Talking in general, this law states a relation between the <u>orbital period</u> T of a body (moon, planet, satellite, comet) orbiting a greater body in space with the <u>size</u> a of its orbit.

However, if T is measured in <u>years</u>, and a is measured in <u>astronomical units</u> (equivalent to the distance between the Sun and the Earth: 1AU=1.5(10)^{8}km), equation (1) becomes:

T^{2}=a^{3}  (2)

This means that now both sides of the equation are equal.

Knowing T=75.3years and isolating a from (2):

a=\sqrt[3]{T^{2}}=T^{2/3}  (3)

a=(75.3years)^{2/3}  (4)

Finally:

a=17.83AU  (5)
