Answer:

Ripple in water is a surface wave. A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission —the material—is limited.

A wagon wheel consists of 8 spokes of uniform diameter, each of mass ms and length L cm. The outer ring has a mass mring. What i
just olya [345]

Answer:

The moment of inertial of the wheel,  I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2

Explanation:

Given;

8 spokes of uniform diameter

mass of each spoke, = M_s

length of each spoke, = L

mass of outer ring, = M_r

The moment of inertial of the wheel will be calculated as;

I = 8I_{spoke} + I_{ring}

where;

I_{spoke is the moment of inertia of each spoke

I_{ring is the moment of inertia of the rim

Moment of inertia of each spoke =\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2

Moment of inertial of the wheel

I = 8(\frac{1}{3}M_sL^2 ) + M_rL^2

Two​ vehicles, a car and a​ truck, leave an intersection at the same time. the car heads east at an average speed of 50 miles pe
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The car heads east at an average speed of 50 miles per​ hour from the intersection point towards East. The truck heads east at an average speed of 60 miles per​ hour from the intersection point towards South.

The distance of car from the intersection point after t hours is 50t.

The distance of truck from the intersection point after t hours is 60t.

Since these distances are perpendicular to each other, distance apart d​ (in miles) at the end of t hours is

d=\sqrt{(50t)^2+(60t)^2} \\ d=10\sqrt{61} t\\ d=78.1t

Thus the distance apart is d=78.1t \;miles

How fast can a 4000 kg truck travel around a 70 m radius turn without skidding if its tires share a 0.6 friction coefficient wit
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Velocity of truck will be 20.287 m /sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the truck m = 4000 kg

Radius of the turn r = 70 m

Coefficient of friction \mu =0.6

Centripetal force is given  F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

And frictional force is equal to F_{frictional}=\mu mg

For body to be move these two forces must be equal

So \frac{mv^2}{r}=\mu mg

v=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6\times 70\times 9.8}=20.287m/sec

A cup of coffee is sitting on a table in a train that is moving with a constant velocity. The coefficient of static friction bet
Vikki [24]

Answer:

a = 2.94 m/s²

Explanation:

In order for the cup not to slip, the unbalanced force on cup must be equal to the frictional force:

Unbalanced Force = Frictional Force

ma = μR = μW

ma = μmg

a = μg

where,

a = maximum acceleration for the cup not to slip = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

a = (0.3)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>a = 2.94 m/s²</u>
