Answer:

<em>Fx = 121.24lb</em>

<em>F = 140lb</em>

Explanation:

Since we are not given the angles subtended by the force, we can assume it to be 30 degrees.

The y component of the force expressed by the formula:

Fy = Fsintheta

Given the y-component of the force F to bee 70lb

70lb =  Fsintheta

Get magnitude of the force

F = 70/sin theta

F = 70/sin 30

F = 70/0.5

F = 140lb

Get the x-component of the force

Fx = Fcos theta

Fx = 140cos 30

Fx = 140(0.8660)

Fx = 1,212.4lb

<em>Hence the  x-component of the force sis 121.24lb</em>

<em></em>

<em>Note that the angle used was assumed. Other values can as well be used</em>

When the bug is stationary and creating waves, how does the frequency of the wave some distance away from the bug compare with t
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The frequency is the same

Explanation:

When a wave is created by a source which is vibrating at a certain frequency, the frequency of the wave itself is equal to the frequency of the source.

This occurs with every kind of wave. For instance, if we consider the radio waves produced by an antenna, the frequency of the radio waves is equal to the frequency of the antenna.

In this case, the waves are created by the vibrating bug. The bug is vibrating with a certain frequency f: as a consequence, the frequency f' of the waves produced by the bug will be equal to the frequency of vibration of the bug:

f'=f.

a child is swinging on swing, describe what happens to both the kinectic energy and potential enegry of the child as she swings
Igoryamba

Answer:

The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position and the P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.

Explanation:

  • A child is swinging on swing up and down has both kinetic and potential energy.
  • The total mechanical energy of the system is conserved throughout the system. At any instant the total mechanical energy is given by,

                                      E = K.E + P.E

  • The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position.
  • The P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
  • And when K.E is maximum P.E becomes minimum and vice versa as per the law of conservation of energy.
