Answer: (a) 99.5℅ submerged

(B) 96.9℅ submerged

Explanation:

For 995 kilograms per cubic meter, It'll be the 995Kg/m3 density given, divided by the density of fresh water, which is one times ten to the three kilograms per cubic meter, and this works out to 99.5 percent submerged.

If the same person with the same density was floating in salt water, salt water has a slightly higher density of 1027 kilograms per cubic meter, this works out to 96.9 percent submerged.

What is the difference in the speed of the generator with a small magnet and a generator with a large magnet?

Delvig [45]

With a small magnet with a generator it will be taken up quickly because how small it is while with a big generator it would take more force for it for the generator to attach because the larger the magnet that heavier it will be because it is attached to the North Pole magnet

f the magnitude of the acceleration of a propeller blade's tip exceeds a certain value amaxamax, the blade tip will fracture. If

Luden [163]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w= \sqrt[4]{\frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2} - \alpha ^2}$

Explanation:

Generally the acceleration experienced by the propeller blade's is broken down into

The Radial acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a_r = \frac{v^2}{r} = w^2r$

And the Tangential acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a_r = \alpha r$

The net acceleration is evaluated as

$a = \sqrt{a_r^2 + a_t^2}$

Now since angular speed varies directly with angular acceleration so when acceleration is maximum the angular velocity is maximum also and this point if the propeller blade's tip exceeds it the blade would fracture

So at maximum angular acceleration we a have

$a_{max} = \sqrt{a_r^2 + a_t^2}$

$a_{max}^2 = a_r^2 + a_t^2$

$a_{max}^2 = (w^2r)^2 + (\alpha r)^2$

$a_{max}^2 = r^2 w^4 + r^2 \alpha ^2$

$a_{max}^2 = r^2 (w^4 + \alpha^2 )$

$w^4 +\alpha ^2 = \frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2}$

$w^4 = \frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2} - \alpha ^2$

$w= \sqrt[4]{\frac{a_{max}^2}{r^2} - \alpha ^2}$

Describe the sequence of mechanical energy events that lets you hear the

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Starting from the beginning.

There is a radio signal that is received by the radio.

The radio interprets the signal and produces a current in response to it.

That current goes to a membrane that oscillates producing sound, the oscillation of the membrane is the first mechanical energy event here.

These oscillations can travel in material mediums, for example, the air. Then there is a production of waves (soundwaves) that travel in the air (second event).

Those waves now hit the wall that separates you and your neighbor, as the wall is made of a material, the soundwaves can travel through it, but they will be dispersed (a part of the waves rebounds on the wall, and another part is dissipated as the wave travels through the wall), there is also a transmitted part of the wave, that is now in your house. (this change of medium will be the third event). Now only the lower frequencies survive, this is why the sound is "muffled".

Those remaining frequencies now travel in your house, and when they reach your ear, your ear sends a signal to your brain and your brain interprets them as sound. The wave interacting with your ear will be the fourth and last mechanical energy event.
