A 97.6-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =

0.555.

Answer:

$v=6.65m/sec$

Explanation:

From the Question we are told that:

Mass $m=97.6$

Coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu k=0.555$

Generally the equation for Frictional force is mathematically given by

$F=\mu mg$

$F=0.555*97.6*9.8$

$F=531.388N$

Generally the Newton's equation for Acceleration due to Friction force is mathematically given by

$a_f=-\mu g$

$a_f=-0.555 *9.81$

$a_f=-54455m/sec^2$

Therefore

$v=u-at$

$v=0+5.45*1.22$

$v=6.65m/sec$

If the second harmonic of a certain string is 42 Hz, what is the fundamental frequency of the string?

sdas [7]

Data:
$f_{2} = 42 Hz$
n (Wave node)
V (Wave belly)
L (Wave length)
<span>The number of bells is equal to the number of the harmonic emitted by the string.
</span>
$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$

Wire 2 → 2º Harmonic → n = 2

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{2} = \frac{2V}{2L} 
$
$2V = f_{2} *2L$
$V = \frac{ f_{2}*2L }{2}$
$V = \frac{42*2L}{2}$
$V = \frac{84L}{2}$
$V = 42L$

Wire 1 → 1º Harmonic or Fundamental rope → n = 1

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{1V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$

If, We have:
V = 42L
Soon:
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{42L}{2L}$
$\boxed{f_{1} = 21 Hz}$

Answer:

<span>The fundamental frequency of the string:
</span>21 Hz

The driver of a 1000 kg car traveling at a speed of 16.7 m/s applies the brakes. If the brakes provide a force of - 8000 N to st

RSB [31]

Answer:

Given:

m=1000kg

u= 16.7m/s

v=0m/s

F=8000N

Required:

s=?

Solution:

F=m × a

8000N=1000kg × a

a=8m/s^2

Since it decelerate a= -8m/s^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

s=v^2 - u^2 / 2a

s= 0 - (16.7m/s)^2 / 2 × -8m/s^2

s= -278.89/-16

s= 17.43m

The car travels approximately 17.43m before it stops

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now here we can say

$m_1 = 10 g$

$v_{1i} = 0$

$m_2 = 550 g$

$v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s$

now here we can say

$10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}$

$192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}$

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})$

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5$

now by solving the two equation

$56v_{2f} = 189$

$v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s$

also we know that

$v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s$

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s

A molecular cloud fragments as it collapses because Choose one: A. the interstellar wind is stronger in some places than others.

kondaur [170]

The cause for a molecular cloud forming fragments when it collapses is indicated correctly by option D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.

Molecular cloud:

A molecular cloud, also known as a stellar nursery, is a specific kind of interstellar cloud, whose density and size allow the development of molecules, absorption nebulae, and H II regions. In contrast, some regions of the interstellar medium mostly consist of ionized gas.

Molecular clouds are cold, dense areas of space where stars form. The cloud collapses into a proto-star when the gravitational force pulling it in outweighs the internal pressure pushing it in.

When a molecular cloud collapses, it is observed that the density varies from place to place with the variation increasing with collapse. As a result, the collapse is characterized by fragmentation of the cloud.

Thus the correct option is: D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.
