-- Well first of all, the waves are transverse waves. The fibers in the rope, and the hand that generates the waves, are moving up and down, but the wave is moving to the right, towards the wall. These directions are perpendicular.

-- Later on, after the waves reflect from the wall and travel back toward the hand, there are going to be standing waves on the rope. But this is probably beyond the scope of the question.

Which FBD would represent a car moving right with a motor force of 250 N, and force of friction of 750N, a weight of 8500N and a

babymother [125]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Given that

Motor force is 250 N

Force of friction is 750 N

Weight is 8500 N

And, the normal force is 8500 N

Now based on the above information

Here length of the rector shows the relative magnitude forward force i.e. 250 N i..e lower than the frictional force i.e. backward and weight i.e. 8500 would be equivalent to the normal force

klasskru [66]

Solar panels convert light energy from sunlight into electricity energy , Metalloid is most likely used in solar panels The answer is : A metalloid is used because it is a semiconductor and can become more conductive when more light shines on it. Metalloids are shiny, semiconductive and they are brittle.

A 27-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 640 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocit

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

F = - 3.56*10⁵ N

Explanation:

To attempt this question, we use the formula for the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.

I = F t = Δp

Next, we try to find the time that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), so we say

v = d / t

t = d / v

Given that

m = 26 g = 26 10⁻³ kg

d = 50 mm = 50 10⁻³ m

t = d/v

t = 50 10⁻³ / 600

t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s

F t = m v - m v₀

This is so, because the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative

F = m (v-vo) / t

F = 26*10⁻³ (-500 - 640) / 8.33*10⁻⁵

F = - 3.56*10⁵ N

The negative sign is as a result of the force exerted against the bullet

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g

djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) m = 69.0 kg

b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law

F = m a

m = F / a

m = 60.0 / 0.870

m = 69.0 kg

b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved

p₀ = p_f

m v = M v '

v ’= $\frac{m}{M} \ v$

so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.

One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.
