Two children use a homemade "telephone" consisting of two paper cups attached by an aluminum wire which is 8.4 m long. Determine

the time for the "sound" to travel from one cup to the other. How does this compare with the time for sound to travel the same distance through air? (speed of sound in aluminum is 5100 m/s, in air is 343 m/s)

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance over wire of aluminium d = 8.4 m

velocity of sound in aluminium = 5100 m /s

time required = distance / velocity

= 8.4 / 5100 s

= .001647 s

velocity of sound in air = 343 m /s

time required = distance / velocity

= 8.4 / 343 s

= .024489 s

Difference of time

= .024489 - .001647

= .022842 s

= 22.842 ms .

Two bodies of masses 1000kg and 2000kg are separated 1km which is the gravitational force between them
denpristay [2]

Answer:

1.33×10⁻¹⁰ N

Explanation:

F = GMm / r²

where G is the gravitational constant,

M and m are the masses of the objects,

and r is the distance between them.

F = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ N/m²/kg²) (1000 kg) (2000 kg) / (1000 m)²

F = 1.33×10⁻¹⁰ N

A bucket of water experiencing a gravitational force of 525 N is pulled from a water well. Net force in the Y direction is 45 N
vivado [14]

Answer:

T = 570 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational force acting on a bucket of water = 525 N

Net force in the Y direction is 45 N

We need to find the magnitude of the force of tension. It can be calculated as :

45 = T - 525

T = 525 + 45

T = 570 N

Hence, the force of tension is 570 N.

You and your neighbour are shovelling snow. If your neighbour pushes a shovel four times as far as you do but exerts only a half
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The neighbour

Double your work

Explanation:

Work is a product of force and distance, expressed as W=Fd where W is work in Nm, F is applied force and d is the distance in m

Since your neighbour pushes 4 times then you just push 1m when he pushes 4m, that is an example. Also, since the neighbour only exerts half the force ie 0.5N then you exert full force of 1N

Work from your neighbour will be 4d*0.5F=2dF

Work from you will be dF

Clearly, 2dF=2(dF) hence the neigjbour exerts double work
