A 7 cm thick and 20 cm long wedge is used to pierce a 3cm long log of diameter 20cm what is the velocity ratio of the wedge

Physics
1 answer:
stiks02 [169]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The velocity ratio of the wedge is 0.15

Explanation:

Use the following formula to calculate the velocity ratio

Velocity Ratio = Distance Moved by effort / Distance moved by Load

Where

Distance Moved by effort = 3cm

Distance moved by Load = 20 cm

Placing values in the formula

Velocity Ratio = 3cm / 20 cm

Velocity Ratio = 0.15

MAXImum [283]

Answer:21.18 m

Explanation:

Given

initial speed u=10 m/s

height of building h=22 m

time taken to complete 22 m

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

initial vertical velocity =0

22=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

t=\sqrt{\frac{22\times 2}{g}}

t=2.11 s

Horizontal Distance moved

R=u_x\times t

R=10\times 2.11

R=21.18 m

HELPPPP I DONT HAVE ENOUGH WRITTEN <br> Describe the process of sea floor spreading.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading is a geologic process in which tectonic plates—large slabs of Earth's lithosphere—split apart from each other. ... As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense

An object moving at a constant speed of 25 m/s is making a turn with a radius of curvature of 7 m (this is the radius of the "ki
prisoha [69]

Answer:

- 278.34 kg m/s^2

Explanation:

The rate of the change of momentum is the same as the force.

The force that an object feels when moviming in a circular motion is given by:

F = -mrω^2

Where ω is the angular speed and r is the radius of the circumference

Aditionally, the tangential velocity of the body is given as:

v = rω

The question tells us that

v = 25 m/s

r = 7m

mv = 78 kg m/s

Therefore:

m = (78 kg m/s) / (25 m/s) = 3.12 kg

ω = (25 m/s) / (7 m) = 3.57 (1/s)

Now, we can calculate the force or rate of change of momentum:

F = - (3.12 kg) (7 m)(3.57 (1/s))^2

F = - 278.34 kg m/s^2

If we double the frequency of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion, which of the following statements about that system ar
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

a. The angular frequency is doubled.

e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Explanation:

Angular frequency is given as;

ω = 2πf

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{(2f_1)} \\\\\omega _1 = \frac{\omega _2}{2}\\\\\omega _2 = 2\omega _1

Thus, the angular frequency will be doubled.

Amplitude in simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement.

Frequency is related to period in simple harmonic motion as given in the equation below;

f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f_1T_1= f_2T_2\\\\T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled;

T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{2f_1} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_1}{2}

Thus, the period will be reduced to one-half of what it was.
