If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign

Physics
1 answer:
kvasek [131]4 years ago
3 0
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

If the mass of a car is 1,100 kg and its momentum is 22,000 kg<br> m/s, then what is its velocity?
egoroff_w [7]
Momentum = mass*velocity

In variable form, this is the same as p=mv.

Therefore:
22,000=1,100v
v = 20 m/s

Points A, B, and C lie along a line from left to right, respectively. Point B is at a lower electric potential than point A. Poi
arlik [135]

Answer:

Please see below as the answer is self-explanatory.

Explanation:

  • If the potential at B is lower than A, and the potential at C is lower than B, this means that there is an electric field, directed from A to C.
  • If a positively-charged particle is released at rest at point B, it will be accelerated by the electric field  (which is a force per unit charge, so it produces an acceleration) in the same direction than the field (because it is a positive charge) towards point C.

The driver of a stationary car hears a siren of an approaching police car at a frequency of 280Hz. If the actual frequency of th
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The speed of the police car is 294 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the siren in air, f = 280 Hz

speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

Determine the wavelength of the sound in air to the stationary car:

v = fλ

where;

λ is wavelength of the sound

λ = v/f

λ = 343 / 280

λ = 1.225 m

Now, determine the speed at which the police car is approaching the stationary car;

The actual frequency of the police car, F = 240 Hz

V = Fλ

Where;

V is speed of the police car

λ is the distance between the police car and the stationary car, (wavelength)

V = 240 x 1.225

V = 294 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the police car is 294 m/s
