A child lies on his back and raises his head up off the floor. When doing so, the total tension force in his neck muscles is 51.

0 N. The same child now is sliding feet first down a water slide. The slide makes a circular curve, where the outside wall of the slide is vertical but the curve itself is in the horizontal plane, and the radius of the curve is 2.40 m. While sliding along this curve, the child's speed is 3.35 m/s. The child raises his head from the wall of the slide and holds it steady, looking forward. At this moment, what is the total tension (in N) in the child's neck muscles

Answer:

The total tension in the child's neck muscle, T = 56.51 N

Explanation:

Let m = mass of the child's neck

Radius of the curve, r = 2.40 m

The child's speed, v = 3.35 m/s

The tension force on the child's neck when he raises his head up off the floor, T_{f} = 51.0 N

The tension force on the child's neck when he raises his head from the wall of the slide, T_{s} = ?

T_{f} = mg\\g = 9.8 m/s^2\\51 = m * 9.8\\m = 51/9.8\\m = 5.2 kg

Since he makes a circular turn in water, the radial acceleration can be given by the equation:

a_{r} = \frac{v^{2} }{r} \\a_{r} = \frac{3.35^{2} }{2.4}\\a_{r} = 4.68 m/s^2

T_{s} = ma_{r} \\T_{s} = 5.2 * 4.68\\T_{s} = 24.336 N

The total tension in the child's neck muscle till be calculated as:

T = \sqrt{T_{f} ^{2} + T_{s} ^{2} } \\T = \sqrt{51 ^{2} + 24.336^{2} }\\T = \sqrt{2601 + 592.24 }\\T = 56.51 N

Which two points on the wave shown in the diagram below are in phase with each other?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

4. B and D

Explanation:

Two points along a transverse wave (such as the one in the figure) are said to be in phase when:

- the vertical position of the two points is the same

- The oscillation of the wave is going in the same way for both points

Basically, we say that two points are in phase when they are separated by a complete cycle (one complete oscillation) of the wave.

For this wave, we see that point B and C have same displacement, but they are not in phase since in B the oscillation is going down while in C is going up.

Instead, B and D are in phase, because they are separated by one complete cycle: both points have same displacement and the oscillation is going in the same way for both of them.

A copper rod of cross-sectional area 11.6 cm2 has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture, which
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

0.686 g of ice melts each second.

Solution:

As per the question:

Cross-sectional Area of the Copper Rod, A = 11.6\ cm^{2} = 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\ m^{2}

Length of the rod, L = 19.6 cm = 0.196 m

Thermal conductivity of Copper, K = 390\ W/m.^{\circ}C

Conduction of heat from the rod per second is given by:

q = \frac{KA\Delta T}{L}

where

\Delta T = 100^{\circ} - 0^{\circ} = 100^{\circ}C = temperature difference between the two ends of the rod.

Thus

q = \frac{390\times 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\times 100}{0.196} = 228.48\ J/s

Now,

To calculate the mass, M of the ice melted per sec:

M = \frac{q}{L_{w}}

where

L_{w} = Latent heat of fusion of water = 333 kJ/kg

M = \frac{228.48}{333\times 10^{3}} = 6.86\times 10^{- 4}\ kg = 0.686\ g

We can block light by placing obstacles in its path, but it’s much more difficult to block sound. Why?
Olin [163]
Sound spreads through some kind of medium. Most of the time the medium is usually air. Sound can go through walls, like when you are playing really loud music and the neighbors tell you its to loud, you can't block it because it can travel through objects. Light does not need a medium to travel with. if you put a light in a room with no windows and no cracks, and you seal off the door the light can't escape that room, but if you did the same thing with sound it would travel trough the walls.
