A wave on a string is observed to have a frequency of 3 Hertz. Its wavelength is 6 centimeters.

An unknown substance has a mass of 0.125 kg and an initial temperature of 95.0°C. The substance is then dropped into a calorimet

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

"Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance per unit of mass. The specific heat capacity of a material is a physical property."

Use this equation:

mcΔT = ( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT'

Rearranging the equation to find the specific heat (c) you get this:

c = (( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT') / (mΔT)

c = (( 0.285 (4186) + (0.15)(900)) (32 -25.1)) / ((0.125) (95 - 32))

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C

A block-and-tackle pulley hoist is suspended in a warehouse by ropes of lengths 2 m and 3 m. the hoist weighs 430 n. the ropes,

ICE Princess25 [194]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

For horizontal equilibrium,
T₃ cos38 = T₂ cos 50
0.788 T₃ = 0.6428 T₂
T₃ = 0.8157 T₂ (1)

For vertical equilibrium,
T₂ sin 50 + T₃ sin 38 = 430
0.766 T₂ + 0.6157 T₃ = 430
1.2441 T₂ + T₃ = 698.392 (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
(1.2441 + 0.8157) T₂ = 698.392
T₂ = 339.058 N
T₃ = 0.8157(399.058) = 276.571 N

Answer:
T₂ = 339.06 N
T₃ = 276.57 N

The force of air resistance acts to oppose the motion of an object moving through the air. A ball is thrown upward and eventuall

ozzi

Answer:

For a (1) net force will be greater than the weight of the ball

For b (2) net force will be lesser than the weight of the ball

Explanation:

For (a):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes upward, one thing is for sure, the net force is greater than the weight of the ball, because three forces are applied during upward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is also acting downward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in upward motion

External force to throw ball upward

So

Net Force = Upward force - Air friction - Weight

Since ball is going upward, so net force is greater than both weight and air friction which are pulling ball downward.

For (b):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes downward, one thing is for sure, the net force is lesser than the weight of the ball, because two forces are applied during downward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is acting upward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in downward motion

So

Net Force = Weight - Air friction

Since ball is going downward, so weight is greater than net force which is in this case is air friction which is pulling ball upward.

Find the three longest wavelengths (call them λ1, λ2, and λ3) that "fit" on the string, that is, those that satisfy the boundary

zepelin [54]

If you have a string that is fixed on both ends the amplitude of the oscillation must be zero at the beginning and the end of the string. Take a look at the pictures I have attached. It is clear that our fundamental harmonic will have the wavelength of:
$\lambda_1=\frac{L}{2}$
All the higher harmonics are just multiples of the fundamental:
$\lambda_n=n\lambda_1\\ \lambda_n=n\frac{L}{2}$
Three longest wavelengths are:
$n=3; \lambda_3=\frac{3L}{2}\\
n=2; \lambda_2=L\\
n=1; \lambda_=\frac{L}{2}\\
$
