A 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,

and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

Answer:

3.6 KJ

Explanation: Given that a 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m, and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

The workdone = the energy.

There are two different energies in the scenario - the potential energy (P.E ) and the kinetic energy ( K.E )

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 × 9.8 × 1.6

P.E = 1097.6 J

P.E = 1.098 KJ

K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 70 × 8.5^2

K.E = 2528.75 J

K.E = 2.529 KJ

The non conservative workdone = K.E + P.E

Work done = 1.098 + 2.529

Work done = 3.63 KJ

Therefore, the non conservative workdone is 3.6 KJ approximately

In a two-slit experiment using coherent light, the distance between the slits and the screen is 1.10 m, and the distance between
Paul [167]

Answer:

D) 763 nm

Explanation:

Calculation for the wavelength of light

Using this formula

Wavelength of light=Delta Y*Distance / Length

Where,

Delta Y represent the 2nd order bright fringe

Length represent the distance between both the slits and the screen

Distance represent the Distance between the slits

Let note that cm to m = (4.2) x 10^-2 and mm to m= ( 0.0400x 10^-3)

Now Let plug in the formula

Wavelength of light=[(4.2 x 10^-2m)(0.0400 x 10^-3m) / 2(1.1m)]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light=[(0.042m) (0.0004m)/2.2m]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =(0.0000168m/2.2m)*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =7.63 *10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =763 nm

Therefore the Wavelength of light will be 763 nm

What frequency fapproach is heard by a passenger on a train moving at a speed of 18.0 m/s relative to the ground in a direction
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 18.0 m/s

Suppose a train is traveling at 30.0 m/s relative to the ground in still air. The frequency of the note emitted by the train whistle is 262 Hz .

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

f'=f(\dfrac{v+v_{p}}{v-v_{s}})

Where, f = frequency

v = speed of sound

v_{p} = speed of passenger

v_{s} = speed of source

Put the value into the formula

f'=262\times(\dfrac{344+18}{344-30})

f'=302.05\ Hz

Hence, The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

Sapting Leng You have a string with a mass of 13.7 q. You stretch the string with a force of 8.39 N, giving it a length of 1.87
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

a)  \lambda=0.935\ \textup{m}

b) f=36.19\approx 36\ \textup{Hz}

Explanation:

Given:

String vibrates transversely fourth dynamic, thus n = 4

mass of the string, m = 13.7 g = 13.7 × 10⁻¹³ kg

Tension in the string, T = 8.39 N

Length of the string, L = 1.87 m

a) we know

L= n\frac{\lambda}{2}

where,

\lambda = wavelength

on substituting the values, we get

1.87= 4\times \frac{\lambda}{2}

or

\lambda=0.935\ \textup{m}

b) Speed of the wave (v) in the string is given as:

v =f\lambda

also,

v=\sqrt\frac{T}{(\frac{m}{L})}

equating both the formula for 'v' we get,

f\lambda=\sqrt\frac{T}{(\frac{m}{L})}

on substituting the values, we get

f\times 0.935=\sqrt\frac{8.39}{(\frac{13.7\times 10^{3}}{1.87})}

or

f=\frac{33.84}{0.935}

or

f=36.19\approx 36\ \textup{Hz}

A light, flexible cable is wrapped around a solid cylinder with mass 3.3 kg and a radius of 0.8 meters. The cylinder rotates on
kari74 [83]

Answer:

9.16rad/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,m_1=3.3 kg

Radius,r=0.8 m

m_2=4.9 kg

Height,h=2.9 m

We have to find the angular acceleration of the cylinder.

According to question

4.9g-T=4.9a

Tr=I\alpha

Where

\alpha=\frac{a}{r}

Tr=\frac{1}{2}m_1ra

T=\frac{1}{2}m_1a=\frac{1}{2}(3.3)a

Substitute the value

4.9g-\frac{1}{2}(3.3a)=4.9a

4.9\times 9.8=4.9a+\frac{3.3a}{2}

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

48.02=a(4.9+1.65)=6.55a

a=\frac{48.02}{6.55}=7.33m/s^2

Angular acceleration,\alpha=\frac{a}{r}=\frac{7.33}{0.8}=9.16rad/s^2
