Answer: feet first

Explanation:

It is always the safest to enter with your feet first. You can become paralyzed or injure you neck if you dive into a body of water that is too shallow. Therefore its always best to dive feet first instead.

A 0.750 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w

trapecia [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.

A) Conservation of Energy,

$KE = PE$

$\frac{1}{2} mv ^2 = \frac{1}{2} k A^2$

Here,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

k = Spring constant

A = Amplitude

Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

$A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}$

Replacing,

$A = \sqrt{\frac{(0.750)(31*10^{-2})^2}{13}}$

$A = 0.0744m$

(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.

The Period is defined as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

Replacing,

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.750}{13}}$

$T= 1.509s$

Now the velocity is described as,

$v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-0.75A^2}$

We have all the values, then replacing,

$v = \frac{2\pi}{1.509}\sqrt{(0.0744)^2-(0.750(0.0744))^2}$

$v = 0.2049m/s$

You hear a sound with a frequency of 256 Hz. The amplitude of the sound increases and decreases periodically: it takes 2 seconds

german

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency and period, and how they are related to each other.

The relationship that defines both agreements is given by the equation,

$f_{beat}=\frac{1}{T}$

Then the frequency for the previous period given (2sec) is

$f_{beat}=\frac{1}{2}$

$f_{beat} = 0.5Hz$

The beat frequency of two frequencies is equal to the difference between the two frequencies, then

$f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|\\f_{beat} = |256Hz-2Hz|\\f_{beat} = 254Hz$

Hence option A is incorrect.

We can do this process for 254Hz as $f_1$ and 258 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|254Hz-258Hz|$

$f_{beat} = 4Hz$

Hence option B is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255Hz as $f_1$ and 257 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|255Hz-257Hz|$

$f_{beat} = 2Hz$

Hence option C is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255.5Hz as f_1 and 256.5 Hz for f_2, then

$f_{beat} =|255.5Hz-256.5Hz|\\f_{beat} = 1Hz$

Hence option D is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255.75Hz as $f_1$ and 256.25 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|255.75Hz-256.25Hz|\\f_{beat} = 0.5Hz$

Hence option E is incorrect.

Therefore the sum of the frequencies in the sound wave would be 256.25Hz and 255.75Hz

If 3600 j of work is done in 3.0 s what is the power 0.00083W 1200W 3600W 11000W

Viktor [21]

Answer:

1200 W

Explanation:

Power is given by the ratio between work done and time taken:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where W is the work done and t the time taken.

In this problem, W = 3600 J and t = 3.0 s. Therefore, the power in this exercise is

$P=\frac{3600 J}{3.0 s}=1200 W$

What are the methods that are used for heat transfer

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Heat can travel from one place to another in three ways: Conduction, Convection and Radiation. Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat. If there is a temperature difference between two systems heat will always find a way to transfer from the higher to lower system.
