Answer:

35.28m/s; 63.50m

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Time, t = 3.6 secs

Since it's a free fall, acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 0

To find the final velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;

V = u + at

Substituting into the equation, we have;

V = 0 + 9.8 * 3.6

V = 35.28m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the penny is 35.28m/s.

To find the height, we would use the second equation of motion;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Substituting the values into the equation;

S = 0(3.6) + \frac {1}{2}*9.8*(3.6)^{2}

S = 0 + 4.9*12.86

S = 0.5 *36

S = 63.50m

Therefore, the height of the tower is 63.50m.

What is force??????<br> ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​
Gwar [14]

Answer:

A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects. ... Forces only exist as a result of an interaction.

A piano wire with mass 2.95 g and length 79.0 cm is stretched with a tension of 29.0 N . A wave with frequency 105 Hz and amplit
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The concept needed to solve this problem is average power dissipated by a wave on a string. This expression ca be defined as

P = \frac{1}{2} \mu \omega^2 A^2 v

Here,

\mu = Linear mass density of the string

\omega =  Angular frequency of the wave on the string

A = Amplitude of the wave

v = Speed of the wave

At the same time each of this terms have its own definition, i.e,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} \rightarrow Here T is the Period

For the linear mass density we have that

\mu = \frac{m}{l}

And the angular frequency can be written as

\omega = 2\pi f

Replacing this terms and the first equation we have that

P = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{m}{l})(2\pi f)^2 A^2(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

P = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{m}{l})(2\pi f)^2 A^2 (\sqrt{\frac{T}{m/l}})

P = 2\pi^2 f^2A^2(\sqrt{T(m/l)})

PART A ) Replacing our values here we have that

P = 2\pi^2 (105)^2(1.8*10^{-3})^2(\sqrt{(29.0)(2.95*10^{-3}/0.79)})

P = 0.2320W

PART B) The new amplitude A' that is half ot the wavelength of the wave is

A' = \frac{1.8*10^{-3}}{2}

A' = 0.9*10^{-3}

Replacing at the equation of power we have that

P = 2\pi^2 (105)^2(0.9*10^{-3})^2(\sqrt{(29.0)(2.95*10^{-3}/0.79)})

P = 0.058W
