A cork on the surface of a pond bobs up and down two times per second on ripples having a wavelength of 7.60 cm. If the cork is

The time taken for the cork to reach the shore is 92.1 s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Frequency of the oscillation, f = 2 Hz</em>
  • <em>Wavelength of the oscillation, λ = 7.6 cm</em>
  • <em>Distance of the cork from the shore, d = 14.0 m</em>

The speed of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = f \lambda \\\\v = 2 \times 0.076 \\\\v = 0.152 \ m/s

The time taken for the cork to reach the shore is calculated as follows;

time = \frac{distance}{speed} \\\\time = \frac{14}{0.152} \\\\time = 92.1 \ s

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in term
MArishka [77]

Answer:

N_{y} =NcosФ,

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

Explanation:

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in terms of the length of the vector NNN and the angle θθtheta, with the components separated by a comma.

Vectors are quantities that  have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

This a vector quantity

from the diagram the horizontal component of the length of the vector will be

N_{y} =NcosФ

the vertical component will be

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

this is in the opposite direction because the x can be extrapolated to the negative axis

A 4kg block sitting on the floor, how much potential energy does it have?
prohojiy [21]

Well, there you have a very important principle wrapped up in that question.

There's actually no such thing as a real, actual amount of potential energy.
There's only potential <em><u>relative to some place</u></em>.  It's the work you have to do
to lift the object from that reference place to wherever it is now.  It's also
the kinetic energy the object would have if it fell down to the reference place
from where it is now.

Here's the formula for potential energy:    PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em><u>height</u></em><u>)</u> .

So naturally, when you use that formula, you need to decide "height above what ?"

If you're reading a book while you're flying in a passenger jet, the book's PE is
(M x G x 0 meters) relative to your lap, (M x G x 1 meter) relative to the floor of the
plane, (M x G x 10,000 meters) relative to the ground, and maybe (M x G x 25,000 meters)
relative to the bottom of the ocean.

Let's say that gravity is 9.8 m/s² .

Then a 4kg block sitting on the floor has (39.2 x 0 meters) PE relative to the floor
it's sitting on, also (39.2 x 3 meters) relative to the floor that's one floor downstairs,
also (39.2 x 30 meters) relative to 10 floors downstairs, and if it's on the top floor of
the Amoco/Aon Center in Chicago, maybe (39.2 x 345 meters) relative to the floor
in the coffee shop that's off the lobby on the ground floor.
