Answer:

(a). Energy is 64,680 J

(b) velocity is 51.43m/s

(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph

Explanation:

(a).

The potential energy P of the payload of mass m is at a vertical distance h is  

P =mgh.

Therefore, for the payload of mass m = 50kg at a vertical distance of h = 132 m, the potential energy is

P = (50kg)(9.8m/s^2)(132m)

\boxed{P = 64,680J}

(b).

When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,

mgh= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v= \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2*9.8*135}

\boxed{v = 51.43m/s}

(c).

The velocity in mph is

\dfrac{51.43m}{s} * \dfrac{3600s}{hr} * \dfrac{1mile}{1609.34m}

\boxed{v= 115.0mph}

Find the first three harmonics of a string of linear mass density 2. 00 g/m and length 0. 600 m when the tension in it is 50. 0
gavmur [86]

The first three harmonics of the string are 131.8 Hz, 263.6 Hz and 395.4 Hz.

<h3>Velocity of the wave</h3>

The velocity of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = √T/μ

where;

  • T is tension
  • μ is mass per unit length = 2 g/m = 0.002 kg/m

v = √(50/0.002)

v = 158.1 m/s

<h3>First harmonic or fundamental frequency of the wave</h3>

f₀ = v/λ

where;

  • λ is the wavelength = 2L

f₀ = v/2L

f₀ = 158.1/(2 x 0.6)

f₀ = 131.8 Hz

<h3>Second harmonic of the wave</h3>

f₁ = 2f₀

f₁ = 2(131.8 Hz)

f₁ = 263.6 Hz

<h3>Third harmonic of the wave</h3>

f₂ = 3f₀

f₂ = 3(131.8 Hz)

f₂ = 395.4 Hz

Thus, the first three harmonics of the string are 131.8 Hz, 263.6 Hz and 395.4 Hz.

How much energy in Joules (J) would an electric heater that draws 9.5 A when connected to a 120 V supply use if the heater were
leonid [27]
<h2>Energy used by heater is 8.21 x 10⁶ J</h2>

Explanation:

Energy = Power x Time

Power = Voltage x Current

Voltage = 120 V

Current = 9.5 A

Power = Voltage x Current

Power = 120 x 9.5 = 1140 W

Time = 2 hours = 2 x 60 x 60 = 7200 s

Energy = Power x Time

Energy = 1140 x 7200

Energy = 8208000 J

Energy used by heater is 8.21 x 10⁶ J

Answer:

the angle of incident is 40°

Explanation:

NQ is the normal to the mirror, therefore

angle NQA =90°

PQA = 50°

incident angle = NQA - PQA

90°- 50° = 40°

note that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incident
