A diver dives off of a raft - what happens to the diver? the raft? how does this relate to newton's third law? action force: ___
kondaur [170]
<span>Actually newtons third law says for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, Hence here in this case, the diver diving of a raft is the action, after which surely reaction should come in the form where the raft and the driver will rebound with same speed back, and hence here the action force is diving and reaction force is rebounding from the diving place, with same intensity.</span>

Find the frequency of a wave with the wavelength 3.5 m and the speed is 50 m/s. <br>​
Andru [333]

Answer:

8.57 Hz

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Wavelength (λ) = 3.5 m

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Frequency (f) =?

The velocity, wavelength and frequency of a wave are related according to the equation:

Velocity = wavelength × frequency

v = λ × f

With the above formula, we can simply obtain the frequency of the wave as follow:

Wavelength (λ) = 3.5 m

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Frequency (f) =?

v = λ × f

30 = 3.5 × f

Divide both side by 3.5

f = 30 / 3.5

f = 8.57 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 8.57 Hz

A truck is hauling a 300-kg log out of a ditch using a winch attached to the back of the truck. Knowing the winch applies a cons
torisob [31]

Answer:

0.1 s

Explanation:

The net force on the log is F - f = ma where F = force due to winch = 2850 N, f = kinetic frictional force = μmg where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction between log and ground = 0.45, m = mass of log = 300 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and a = acceleration of log

So F - f = ma

F - μmg = ma

F/m - μg = a

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = F/m - μg

a = 2850 N/300 kg - 0.45 × 9.8 m/s²

a = 9.5 m/s² - 4.41 m/s²

a = 5.09 m/s²

Since acceleration, a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of log = 0 m/s (since it was a rest before being pulled out of the ditch), v = final velocity of log = 0.5 m/s and t = time taken for the log to reach a speed of 0.5 m/s.

So, making t subject of the formula, we have

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (v - u)/a

t = (0.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/5.09 m/s²

t = 0.5 m/s ÷ 5.09 m/s²

t = 0.098 s

t ≅ 0.1 s

If the kinetic and potential energy in a system are equal, then the potential energy increases. What happens as a result?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The Kinetic Energy decreases. The Total Energy stays the same

Explanation:

The TE stays the same, so if PE increases then KE will decrease.
