Answer:

Option (e)

Explanation:

A body executing SHM moves to and fro or back and forth  about its mean position.

When the particle is at mean position, its velocity is maximum and when it is at extreme position its velocity is zero.

So, when it is at maximum distance:

a.

The acceleration is maximum.

b.

The potential energy is maximum.

c.

The total mechanical energy is non zero.

d.

The kinetic energy is zero.

e. The speed is zero. Correct

1. A huge spool of wire, 10,000 meters long, weighs 81.34 N. You cut off a meter or so and tie it between two posts, 0.660 m apa
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The beat frequency is 6.378 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of wire = 10000 m

Weight = 81.34 N

Distance = 0.660 m

Tension = 52 N

Frequency = 196 Hz

We need to calculate the mass of the wire

Using formula of weight

W= mg

m = \dfrac{W}{g}

Put the value into the formula

m=\dfrac{81.34}{9.8}

m=8.3\ kg

The mass per unit length of the wire

m_{l}=\dfrac{m}{l}

Put the value into the formula

m_{l}=\dfrac{8.3}{10000}

m_{l}=8.3\times10^{-4}\ kg/m

We need to calculate the frequency in the wire

Using formula of frequency

f_{w}=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m_{l}}}

Put the value into the formula

f_{w}=\dfrac{1}{2\times0.660 }\sqrt{\dfrac{52}{8.3\times10^{-4}}}

f_{w}=189.62\ Hz

We need to calculate the beat frequency

Using formula of beat frequency

f_{b}=f_{in}-f_{w}

Put the value into the formula

f_{b}=196-189.622

f_{b}=6.378\ Hz

Hence, The beat frequency is 6.378 Hz.

Runner A is initially 6.0 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 9.0 km/h due east. Runner B is initia
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

From the data we know that runner A and runner B are 11 km apart from the start because (6+5) km

So the runner from the east direction has distance as unknown km, rate= 9 k/h ; time= d/r=x/9 hr

So runner towards the west will be

distance = 11-x, rate= 8 k/h, time = d/r = (11-x)/8

So equating east and west time we have

x/9= (11-x)/8

8x=99-9x

17x=99

x=5.92 km

That is the distance covered by runner towards the east and he will meet the runner toward the west at

6-5.92=0.08 km west of the flagpole.

During aerobic activity, if your heart rate is lower than the lower limit, you are ___________________.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Not pushing yourself hard enough is the answer since your heart rate doesn't even hit your lower minimum.
Pushing yourself to the limit is at your max heart rate.
Just at the right spot is at your max heart rate.
Pushing yourself too hard is above your max heart rate.

A train rolls past a stationary observer. To him, the train is moving at a speed of 23m/s west, and a woman on the train is movi
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.7 seconds.

Explanation:

Woman's velocity relative to train (23 m/s - 22.4 m/s) = 0.6 m/s

Distance woman wants to travel = 13m

To find how long she will take to move 13m relative to the train, take the distance she wants to travel divided by her velocity relative to the train.

(13m)/(0.6 m/s) = 21.6667 seconds or 21.7 seconds.  

Therefore, it will take the woman 21.7 seconds to move 13m.
