Dovator [93]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Simple machine is a machine that has few moving parts or may also have no moving parts and they are usually used to make ones work easier. Examples include wheel and axle, wedge, pulley, lever, screw or an inclined plane.

Their advantages include:

• Less energy is required to perform a particular work.

• It makes work easier.

• It makes work faster.

• Simple machine enable one to do things that might have been difficult to achieve or do.

A sound wave was determined to have a frequency of 0.3 Hz, speed of 150 cm/s, and amplitude of 2 cm. Find its wavelength.
fredd [130]

Answer:

5 m

Explanation:

From the question,

v = λf....................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of the sound wave, λ = wavelength of the sound wave, f = frequency of the sound wave.

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f..................... Equation 2

Given: v = 150 cm/s = 1.5 m/s, f = 0.3 hz.

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = 1.5/0.3

λ = 5 m.

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 2.0 s.
a_sh-v [17]
The equations are analogous to that for linear movement:
acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
acceleration = (3000 rpm - 0 rpm) / 2.0 s
a) acceleration = 1500 rpm/s or 25 rp(s^2)
For the displacement
displacement = initial velocity*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2
displacement = (0)*(2 s) + (0.5)(25 rps^2)*(2 s)^2
b) displacement = 50 revolutions

Earth is 149.6 million meters from the Sun and takes 365 days to make one complete revolution around the Sun. Mars is 227.9 mill
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

\frac{a_{r,earth}}{a_{r,mars}} = 2.325

Explanation:

The distance of Earth from the Sun is 149.6\times 10^{9}\,m and of Mars from the Sun is 227.9\times 10^{9}\,m. Let assume that both planets have circular orbits. The centripetal accelaration can be found by using the following expression:

a_{r} = \frac{v^{2}}{R}

Since planet has translation at constant speed, this formula is applied to compute corresponding speeds:

v=\frac{2\pi\cdot r}{\Delta t}

Earth:

v_{earth} = \frac{2\pi\cdot (149.6\times 10^{9}\,m)}{(365\,days)\cdot(\frac{24\,hours}{1\,day} )\cdot(\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )}

v_{earth}=29806.079\,\frac{m}{s}

Mars:

v_{mars} = \frac{2\pi\cdot (227.9\times 10^{9}\,m)}{(687\,days)\cdot(\frac{24\,hours}{1\,day} )\cdot(\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )}

v_{mars}=24124.244\,\frac{m}{s}

Now, centripetal accelarations can be found:

Earth:

a_{r,earth} = \frac{(29806.079\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{149.6\times 10^{9}\,m}

a_{r,earth} = 5.939\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Mars:

a_{r,mars} = \frac{(24124.244\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{227.9\times 10^{9}\,m}

a_{r,mars} = 2.554\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The ratio of Earth's centripetal acceleration to Mars's centripetal acceleration is:

\frac{a_{r,earth}}{a_{r,mars}} = \frac{5.939}{2.554}

\frac{a_{r,earth}}{a_{r,mars}} = 2.325
