Which of the following units are used to describe acceleration?

A large crate is suspended from the end of a vertical rope. Is the tension in the rope greater when the crate is at rest or when

choli [55]

Answer:

Part a)

the tension force is equal to the weight of the crate

Part b)

tension force is more than the weight of the crate while accelerating upwards

tension force is less than the weight of crate if it is accelerating downwards

Explanation:

Part a)

When large crate is suspended at rest or moving with uniform speed then it is given as

$F_t - mg = ma$

here since speed is constant or it is at rest

so we will have

$a = 0$

$F_t = mg$

so the tension force is equal to the weight of the crate

Part b)

Now let say the crate is accelerating upwards

now we can say

$F_t - mg = ma$

$F_t = mg + ma$

so tension force is more than the weight of the crate

Now if the crate is accelerating downwards

$F_t - mg = -ma$

$F_t = mg - ma$

so tension force is less than the weight of crate if it is accelerating downwards

If frequency is kept constant, how are the velocity and wavelength of a wave related?

Elan Coil [88]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Velocity and wavelength are directly proportional when frequency is kept constant.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Frequency of a wave is the number of complete oscillations made by a given wave in one second.
Wavelength on the other hand, is the distance between two successful crests or troughs in a transverse wave or two successful rarefactions or compressions in a longitudinal waves.
The speed of a wave is given by the product of the frequency of a wave and the wavelength.
Speed = Frequency × wavelength, 
Therefore, if frequency is kept constant, then the speed of a wave is directly proportional to the wavelength, such that an increase in wavelength increases the speed of the wave and vice versa.

If 28.0 J of work is done by an external force to move a charge from a potential of 8.0 V 8.0 V to a potential of 4.0 V , 4.0 V,

jonny [76]

Answer:

Change in electric potential energy is -28.0 J

Explanation:

Electric potential energy is defined as the work is done to move a charge particle from one position to another in space in the presence of other charge particle or electric potential.

OR

Electric potential energy is also equal to the change in the configuration of the charge particles.

Thus,

Change in electric potential energy = - Work Done

According to the problem, Work Done is equal to 28 J. Thus,

Change in electric potential energy = -28 J
