A 43 kg box is being pushed and pulled by

Physics

m_a_m_a [10]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

a = - 0.209 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

We will take the positive forces to the right and the negative forces to the left.

$155-277+113=43*a\\-9=43*a\\a = - 0.209[m/s^{2} ]$

The negative sign means that the box accelerates in a negative direction to the left.

A piano tuner sounds two strings simultaneously. One has been previously tuned to vibrate at 293.0 Hz. The tuner hears 3.0 beats

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Part a)

$f_B = 290 Hz$

Part B)

percentage increase is

$percentage = 1.38$ %

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the beat frequency is

$f_A - f_B = 3$

after increasing the tension the beat frequency is decreased and hence the tension in string B will increase

So we have

$293 - f_B = 3$

$f_B = 290 Hz$

Part B)

percentage increase in the tension of the string will be given as

$f_A - f_B' = 1$

$f_B' = 292 Hz$

now we have

$f = \frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

so we have

$T_1 = C (290)^2$

$T_2 = C(292)^2$

so we have

$\frac{\Delta T}{T} = \frac{292^2 - 290^2}{290^2}$

percentage increase is

$percentage = 1.38$

Earthquakes that originate beneath the ocean floor produce huge tidal waves called _____.

ololo11 [35]

Answer;

-Tsunami

Explanation;

-Tsunami is a series of large ocean waves (or "wave train") of extremely long wavelength and period, usually generated when a gigantic body of water, such as an ocean, is suddenly displaced on a massive scale by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake occurring on or near the sea floor or a volcanic eruption.

-After a sudden displacement of a large water volume by seismic activity (earthquake), the ocean floor is raised or dropped and large tsunami waves can be formed by gravitational forces.

How much would a 15.0 kg object weigh on Neptune?

yan [13]

The gravity on Neptune is 11.15 m/s²
the gravity on earth is 9.81 m/s²
divide the Neptune and earth gravity we get 1.13
which means object on neptune is 1.13 heavier than earth
yield, weigh of the object on neptune is 1.13×15=17.04kg

A beam of protons enter the electric field of magnitude E = 0.5 N/C between a pair of parallel plates. There is a magnetic field

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

0.217 m/s

Explanation:

The protons in the beam passes undeflected when the electric force is equal to the magnetic force:

qE = qvB

where

q is the proton's charge

E is the magnitude of the electric field

v is the speed of the protons

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field

Re-arranging the equation,

$v=\frac{E}{B}$

And by substituting

E = 0.5 N/C

B = 2.3 T

We find

$v=\frac{0.5}{2.3}=0.217 m/s$
