Answer:

1.1x10^-2N

Explanation:

We have the change in momentum as

P = 0.3(4.5+12)g.mph

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3

Then the force that is exerted will be

F = p/∆t

∆t = 0.2

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3/0.2

= 0.1341x16.5x10^-3/0.2

= 1.1x10^-2

Therefore the force that was exerted is equal to 1.1x10^-2

Describe each class of lever and explain to characteristics of each
Nataly [62]

-- Class I lever

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage can be anything, more or less than 1 .

Example:  a see-saw

-- Class II lever

The load is between the fulcrum and the effort.

The Mechanical Advantage is always greater than 1 .

Example:  a nut-cracker, a garlic press

-- Class III lever

The effort is between the fulcrum and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage is always less than 1 .

I can't think of an example right now.

Suppose your car is on a 5% grade, meaning that for every 100 m you travel along the road you raise or lower only 5 m in elevati
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

734.215N

Explanation:

First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function

\beta = tan-1(5%)=2.86

then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)

Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N

Standing waves can ruin the acoustics of a concert hall if there is excessive reflection of the sound waves that the performers
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The answer to the questions is;

In terms of standing waves, the listener moves from a location with high amplitude to one with lower amplitude or vibration (anti-node to node)

The distance 4.1 cm is equivalent to λ/4

Explanation:

For standing waves we have is a stationary wave comprising of two opposite direction moving waves that have equal amplitude and frequency, resulting in the superimposition of the waves. As such certain points are fixed along the wave path that is the peaks amplitude of the wave oscillation is constant at a particular point. A node occurring at a point and an anti-node occurring at another fixed point

When the listener moves 4.1 cm he or she has left the anti-node to the node hence the faintness of the sound

The distance from the node to the anti-node is 1/4 wavelength, or 1/4×λ

Therefore 4.1 cm is λ/4

Determine the number of atoms per unit cell in a (a) face-centered cubic, (b) body- centered cubic, and (c) diamond lattice.
fredd [130]

Answer:

a) 4

b) 2

c) 8

Explanation:

In a cubic lattice, each atom of the vertex is shared among other 8 unit cells, so the atoms on the vertex contribute to 1/8 to a given unit cell.

a) Ina face-centered cubic we have 8 atoms on the vertex and one in each face, which is shared with another unit cell, so it contribute to 1/2

Therefore, the total atoms are:

8*(1/8) + 6*(1/2) = 4

b) In the body centered cubic structure, the centered atom is not shared with another cell, therefore it contribute to 1 to the given cell:

The number of atoms per unit cel is:

8*(1/8) + 1 = 2

c) The diamond lattice is similar to the face-centered cubic lattice but it contains two identical atoms per lattice point.

Therefore it must contain twice atoms than the face-centered cubic lattice:

that is, it has 8 atoms per unit cell
