Answer:

Frequency = 3 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency is a measure of Hertz. Recall that Hertz is the unit expressing cycles/second, where one second is the denominator of the fraction for simplicity. If there are 12 waves every four seconds, and one wave represents one cycle, dividing 12 waves by 4 seconds will give the answer of 3 waves (or cycles) per one second.

A 800 kg safe is 2.1 m above a heavy-duty spring when the rope holding the safe breaks. The safe hits the spring and compresses

stellarik [79]

Answer:

k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m

Explanation:

First we need to find the force applied by safe pn the spring:

F = Weight of Safe

F = mg

where,

F = Force Applied by the safe on the spring = ?

m = mass of safe = 800 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

F = (800 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

F = 7840 N

Now, using Hooke's Law:

F = kΔx

where,

K = Spring Constant = ?

Δx = compression = 46 cm = 0.46 m

Therefore,

7840 N = k (0.46 m)

k = 7840 N/0.46 m

The sensitivity of a measuring instrument is the value of the smallest quantity that can be read or estimated with it. What is t

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The smallest part of a millimeter that can be read with a digital caliper with a four digit display is 0.02mm. Thus, it has to be converted to centimetre. So, divide by 10, we then have 0.02/10= *0.002cm* not mm.

A 0.0600-kilogram ball traveling at 60.0 meters

Vikki [24]

The momentum of ball is given by:

$\Delta Q=mv \\ \Delta Q=6*10^{-2}*60 \\ \Delta Q=3.6kg*m/s$

Since both have the same momentum, we have:

$\Delta Q=MV \\ 3.6=10^{-2}V \\ \boxed {V=360m/s}$

Number 3
