Answer:

m = 788.2[kg]

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration by height. And it can be calculated by means of the following equation.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 63405 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81[m/s²]

h = elevation = 8.2[m]

Now replacing:

63405=m*9.81*8.2\\m=788.2[kg]

Radda [10]

Answer:

\theta=34 \textdegree

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=55kg

Angle \theta =28.0

Coefficient of static friction \alpha =0.680

Generally, the equation for Newtons second Law is mathematically given by

For

\sum_y=0

N=mgcos \theta

for

\sum_x=0

F_{s}=mgsin\theta

Where

F_{s}=\alpha*N\\\\F_{s}=\alpha*m*gcos \theta

F_{s}=0.68*55*9.8*cos 28

F_{s}=323.62N

Therefore

\alpha mgcos \theta=mg sin \theta

\theta=tan^{-1}(0.68)

\theta=34 \textdegree

A 2-m long string is stretched between two supports with a tension that produces a wave speed equal to vw=50.00m/s. What are the
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer

given,

Length of the string, L = 2 m

speed of the wave , v = 50 m/s

string is stretched between two string

For the waves the nodes must be between the strings

the wavelength  is given by

           \lambda = \dfrac{2L}{n}

where n is the number of antinodes; n = 1,2,3,...

the frequency expression is given by

            f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}

now, wavelength calculation

      n = 1

           \lambda_1 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{1}

                    λ₁ = 4 m

      n = 2

           \lambda_2 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{2}

                   λ₂ = 2 m

      n =3

           \lambda_3 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{3}

                    λ₃ = 1.333 m

now, frequency calculation

      n = 1

            f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}

            f_1 =1\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}

                    f₁ = 12.5 Hz

      n = 2

            f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}

            f_2 =2\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}

                    f₂= 25 Hz

      n = 3

            f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}

            f_3 =3\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}

                    f₃ = 37.5 Hz

Larry drops a 5kg ball off of a building. The ball hits the ground 4.7s later. How tall is the building?
musickatia [10]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

t = 4.7 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (4.7 s) + ½ (9.8 m/s²) (4.7 s)²

Δy ≈ 110 m

A ball is dropped from the top of a 77 m building. With what speed does the ball hit the ground? _________ m/s
vitfil [10]

Answer:

38.87 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the ball is dropped from a height = 77 m

u = 0 m/s

s = 77 m

a = g = 9.81 m/s²

Applying the expression as:

v^2-u^2=2as

Applying values as:

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 77+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=38.87\ m/s

<u>The speed with which the ball hit the ground = 38.87 m/s</u>
