Question: A loader sack of total mass

is l000 grams falls down from

the floor of a lorry 200 cm high

Calculate the workdone by the

gravity of the load.

Answer:

19.6 Joules

Explanation:

Applying

W = mgh........................ Equation 1

Where W = Workdone by gravity on the load, m = mass of the loader sack, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity

From the question,

Given: m = 1000 grams = (1000/1000) kilogram = 1 kg, h = 200 cm = 2 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = (1×2×9.8)

W = 19.6 Joules

Hence the work done by gravity on the load is 19.6 Joules

The pressure in a traveling sound wave is given by the equation ΔP = (1.78 Pa) sin [ (0.888 m-1)x - (500 s-1)t] Find (a) the pre

frozen [14]

Answer:

a) $P_m=1.78\ Pa$

b) $f=79.5775\ Hz$

c) $\lambda=7.076\ m$

d) $v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

<u>Given equation of pressure variation:</u>

$\Delta P= (1.78\ Pa)\ sin\ [(0.888\ m^{-1})x-(500\ s^{-1})t]$

We have the standard equation of periodic oscillations:

$\Delta P=P_m\ sin\ (kx-\omega.t)$

<em>By comparing, we deduce:</em>

(a)

amplitude:

$P_m=1.78\ Pa$

(b)

angular frequency:

$\omega=2\pi.f$

$2\pi.f=500$

∴Frequency of oscillations:

$f=\frac{500}{2\pi}$

$f=79.5775\ Hz$

(c)

wavelength is given by:

$\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}$

$\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{0.888}$

$\lambda=7.076\ m$

(d)

Speed of the wave is gives by:

$v=\frac{\omega}{k}$

$v=\frac{500}{0.888}$

$v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}$

Convert 5.5 kilometers into millimeters.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

5500000 millimeters

Explanation:

1 kilometre= 1000 meter

5.5 km=5.5 * 1000

=5500

Now,

1 metre = 1000 millimetres

5500 metre=1000*5500

=5500000 mm

A child uses a rubber band to launch a bottle cap at an angle of 37.0° above the horizontal. The cap travels a horizontal distan

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec

Explanation:

Let the initial speed = u

Angle at which rubber band is launched = 37°

Horizontal component of initial velocity $u_x=ucos\Theta =ucos37^{\circ}=0.7986u$

Time is given as t = 1.20 sec

Distance in horizontal direction = 1.30 m

We know that distance = speed × time

So time $t=\frac{distance}{speed}$

$1.20=\frac{1.3}{0.7986u}$

$u=1.356m/sec$

So initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec
