I dont understand how to find the blanks

Amiraneli [1.4K]

The forces are:

$F_{grav} = 98,000 N$ , down

$F_{net} = 80,000 N$ , down

$F_{air}=18,000 N$ , up

Explanation:

We start by finding the force of gravity on the elephant, $F_{grav}$ , which is given by

$F_{grav}=mg$ (downward)

where

m = 10,000 kg is the mass of the elephant

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting,

$F_{grav}=(10,000)(9.8)=98,000 N$

Now we know that the net acceleration of the elephant is

$a_{net}=8.0 m/s^2$ downward

We can now use Newton's second law:

$F_{net}=ma_{net}$

where $F_{net}$ is the net force on the elephant. Substituting, we find

$F_{net}=(10,000)(8.0)=80,000 N$

and it also acts downward, since it has the same direction as the acceleration.

Finally, we can write the net force on the elephant as

$F_{net}=F_{grav}-F_{air}$

where the force of gravity acts downward, while the air resistance ( $F_{air}$ acts upward. The net force also acts downward, so it has the same sign of gravity.

Substituting:

$F_{net}=80,000 N\\F_{grav}=98,000 N$

And solving, we find the air resistance:

$F_{air}=F_{grav}-F_{net}=98,000-80,000 = 18,000 N$ (upward)

A sinusoidal wave travels along a string. if the time for a particular point to move from maximum displacement to zero displacem

Lisa [10]

The time it takes for a point to reach 0 displacement from maximum displacement is $\frac{\pi}{2}$ of a cycle. Thus, one period ( $2\pi$ ) will take $T=0.17*4=0.68s$ .

The frequency is simply $f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{0.68}=1.47Hz$ .

The speed is given by: $v=f\lambda=1.47*1.4 = 2.06m/s$

Light traveling through plate glass (n = 1.52) approaches the surface, i.e. the air-glass interface. What minimum incident angle

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

refractive index of glass, n = 1.52

For total internal reflection, the angle of refraction in rarer medium is 90°.

r = 90°

Let the angle of refraction in denser medium, that means in glass is i.

By use of Snell's law

refractive index of rarer medium with respect to denser medium, that means refractive index of air with respect to glass = 1 / n

And

$\frac{1}{n}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin r}$

$\frac{1}{1.52}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin 90}$

$0.658= Sin i$

i = 41°

Thus, the angle of incidence should be 41°.
