Answer:

W = 637 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law

         F -W = m a

where F is the force, m the mass and the acceleration

in this case the force is the weight of the body and as the elevator goes at constant speed the acceleration is zero

         F = W

         a = 0

       

          F = W

          W = m g

          W = 65 9.8

          W = 637 N

An iron wire has length 8.0m and a diameter 0.50mm. The sir has a resistance R.
Rudik [331]
The re<span>sistance of the second wire is 16 R.
where R is the resistance of the first wire.

R = </span>ρ\frac{l}{A}
where l = length of the wire
A = area of the wire
A = \pi r^{2} where, r = \frac{diameter of wire}{2}

Thus, on finding the ratio of resistance of the two wires, we get,

\frac{R1}{R2} =  \frac{l1A2}{l2A1}

here, R1 = R
l1 = 8m
l2 = 2m
A1=π0.25^{2}
A1=π0.50^{2}

we get. R2 = 16R

Which of the following statements explains how total time spent in the air is affected as a projectile's angle of launch is incr
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Therefore letter <u>C is the correct answer.</u>

Explanation:

In a projectile motion the total time in the air can be calculated using the following equation:

We analyze the y-component motion.

v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt

When the final velocity (v(f)) is equal to zero we calculate the upward time and multiplying it by 2 we find the total time in the air. So we will have:

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{iy}}{g}

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{i}sin(\theta)}{g}

We can see that the <u>total time is directly proportional to the angle</u>, then when <u>θ increase t increase.</u>

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

I hope it helps you!

7. A sound wave begins traveling through a thin metal rod at one end with a speed that is 15 times the speed of sound in air. If
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

   L = 44,096 m

Explanation:

The speed of the sound wave is constant therefore we can use the relations of uniform kinematics

             v = x / t

the speed of the wave in the bar is

            v = 15 v or

            v = 15 343

             v = 5145 m / s

The sound at the bar goes the distance

             L = v t

Sound in the air travels the same distance

             L = v_air (t + 0.12)

as the two recognize the same dissonance,

             v t = v_air (t +0.12)

             t (v- v_air) = 0.12 v_air

              t = 0.12 v_air / (v -v_air)

l

et's calculate

             t = 0.12 343 / (5145 - 343)

             t = 8.57 10-3 s

The length of the bar is

              L = 5145 8.57 10-3

              L = 44,096 m
