What happens to the energy of a wave as it moves away from its source?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

As the particles move further away from their normal position (up towards the wave crest or down towards the trough), they slow down.

Explanation:

This means that some of their kinetic energy has been converted into potential energy – the energy of particles in a wave oscillates between kinetic and potential energy. Hope that this helps you and have a great day :)

A small box is held in place against a rough vertical wall by someone pushing on it with a force directed upward at 27 ∘ above t
ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Applied force, F = 18 N

Coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.4

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μs = 0.3

θ = 27°

Let N be the normal reaction of the wall acting on the block and m be the mass of block.

Resolve the components of force F.

As the block is in the horizontal equilibrium, so

F Cos 27° = N

N = 18 Cos 27° = 16.04 N

As the block does not slide so it means that the syatic friction force acting on the block balances the downwards forces acting on the block .

The force of static friction is μs x N = 0.4 x 16.04 = 6.42 N   .... (1)

The vertically downward force acting on the block is mg - F Sin 27°

                                                      = mg - 18 Sin 27° = mg - 8.172    ... (2)

Now by equating the forces from equation (1) and (2), we get

mg - 8.172 = 6.42

mg = 14.592

m x 9.8 = 14.592

m = 1.49 kg

Thus, the mass of block is 1.5 kg.

A centrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,500 rev/min, clockwise (when viewed from above). When swit
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, \omega_i=3500\ rev/min=366.5\ rad/s

When it switched off, it comes o rest, \omega_f=0

Number of revolution, \theta=46=289.02\ rad

We need to find the magnitude of angular acceleration. It can be calculated using third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-(366.51)^2}{2\times 289.02}\\\\\alpha =-232.38\ rad/s^2  

So, the magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
