Now set the tension to low and wiggle the wrench to create more waves. Can you explain how moving the first point on the string,

the one closest to the wrench, affects the next point on the spring? How does this fit with your understanding of the force of a stretched spring?

Answer:

As the first particle travels upward, it pulls on the next particle, which follows the first particle upward. Then next in line is pulled up in turn, and so on. The motion of each particle follows the one before it, either up or down, with a slight lag in time. This succession of particles moving up or down travels along the string as a wave. Eventually, it pulls every particle along the string up and down in series.

Answer:

When the string moves, it creates a very small change in the distance to the next point, th

Explanation:

When the string moves, it creates a very small change in the distance to the next point, this generates a restoring force that tends to push the string back, this small disturbance propagates along the string and is what creates the pulse.

This is similar to what happens when a spring is stretched and a restoring force is generated shaved by the law of shortening.

Which three quantities can be used to calculate acceleration?
PtichkaEL [24]
D is the correct answer, assuming that this is the special case of classical kinematics at constant acceleration. You can use the equation V = Vo + at, where Vo is the initial velocity, V is the final velocity, and t is the time elapsed. In D, all three of these values are given, so you simply solve for a, the acceleration.
A and C are clearly incorrect, as mass and force (in terms of projectile motion) have no effect on an object's motion. B is incorrect because it is not useful to know the position or distance traveled, unless it will help you find displacement. Even then, you would not have enough information to use a kinematics equation to find a.

1) the weight of an object at Earth's surface is given by F=mg, where m is the mass of the object and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface. The book in this problem has a mass of m=2.2 kg, therefore its weight is 
F=mg=(2.2 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=21.6 N

2) On Mars, the value of the gravitational acceleration is different:g=3.7 m/s^2. The formula to calculate the weight of the object on Mars is still the same, but we have to use this value of g instead of the one on Earth: F=mg=(2.2 kg)(3.7 m/s^2)=8.1 N

3) The weight of the textbook on Venus is F=19.6 N. We already know its mass (m=2.2 kg), therefore by re-arranging the usual equation F=mg, we can find the value of the gravitational acceleration g on Venus: 
g= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{ 19.6 N}{2.2 kg}=8.9 m/s^2

4) The mass of the pair of running shoes is m=0.5 kg. Their weight is F=11.55 N, therefore we can find the value of the gravitational acceleration g on Jupiter by re-arranging the usual equation F=mg: 
g= \frac{F}{m} = \frac{11.55 N}{0.5 kg} =23.1 m/s^2

5) The weight of the pair of shoes of m=0.5 kg on Pluto is F=0.3 N. As in the previous step, we can calculate the strength of the gravity g on Pluto as 
g= \frac{F}{m} = \frac{0.3 N}{0.5 kg} =0.6 m/s^2

<span>6) On Earth, the gravity acceleration is </span>g=9.81 m/s^2<span>. The mass of the pair of shoes is m=0.5 kg, therefore their weight on Earth is 
</span>F=mg=(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=4.9 N<span>

Question Part Points Submissions Used A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, in
olya-2409 [2.1K]

(a) 328.6 kg m/s

The linear impulse experienced by the passenger in the car is equal to the change in momentum of the passenger:

I=\Delta p = m\Delta v

where

m = 62.0 kg is the mass of the passenger

\Delta v is the change in velocity of the car (and the passenger), which is

\Delta v = 5.30 m/s - 0 = 5.30 m/s

So, the linear impulse experienced by the passenger is

I=(62.0 kg)(5.30 m/s)=328.6 kg m/s

(b) 404.7 N

The linear impulse experienced by the passenger is also equal to the product between the average force and the time interval:

I=F \Delta t

where in this case

I=328.6 kg m/s is the linear impulse

\Delta t = 0.812 s is the time during which the force is applied

Solving the equation for F, we find the magnitude of the average force experienced by the passenger:

F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{328.6 kg m/s}{0.812 s}=404.7 N

What is the wavelength of microwaves with a frequency of 3x10^10 Hz?​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

0.01 m

Explanation:

Since the speed of light is 3.0×10^8 m/s

Use the equation,

Wavelength = speed ÷ frequency

Wavelength = 3.0×10^8 ÷ 3×10^10

Wavelength = 0.01m
