Answer:

Hearing employs air or water waves, whereas sight uses the electromagnetic spectrum. The electrical and chemical neural impulses are sent through the human auditory nerve to the brain once the mechanical energy of the sound waveform is converted into neurological stimulation.

1. A block is pulled to the right at constant velocity by a 20N force acting at 30o above the horizontal. If the coefficient of

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

44.6 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block. There are four forces on the block:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

Friction force Nμ pushing left,

and applied force F pulling right 30° above horizontal.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + F sin 30° − mg = 0

N = mg − F sin 30°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° − Nμ = 0

F cos 30° = Nμ

N = F cos 30° / μ

Substitute:

mg − F sin 30° = F cos 30° / μ

mg = F sin 30° + (F cos 30° / μ)

Plug in values:

mg = 20 N sin 30° + (20 N cos 30° / 0.5)

mg = 44.6 N

Suppose a plane accelerates from rest for 30 s, achieving a takeoff speed of 80 m/s after traveling a distance of 1200 m down th

Margaret [11]

Answer:

300 m

Explanation:

The train accelerate from the rest so u = 0 m/sec

Final speed that is v = 80 m/sec

Time t = 30 sec

The distance traveled by first plane = 1200 m

We know the equation of motion $S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ where s is distance a is acceleration and u is initial velocity

Using this equation for first plane $1200=0\times 30+\frac{1}{2}a30^2$

$a=2.67\frac{m}{sec^2}$

As the acceleration is same for both the plane so a for second plane will be 2.67 $\frac{m}{sec^2}$

The another equation of motion is $v^2=u^2+2as$ using this equation for second plane $40^2=0+2\times 2.67\times s$

s = 300 m

In a 49 s interval, 595 hailstones strike a glass window of an area of 0.954 m at an angle of 25° to the window surface. Each ha

eduard

Average force on the window: 0.32 N

Explanation:

The average force exerted on the window is given by Newton's second law

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta p$ is the net change in momentum of the hailstones in a time interval of $\Delta t$

In order to find the change in momentum, we have to consider only the component of the hailstone's momentum perpendicular to the window, therefore:

$p_i =m u sin \theta$ is the initial momentum of one hailstone, with

m = 7 g = 0.007 kg is the mass

$u=4.5 m/s$ is the initial speed

$\theta=25^{\circ}$ is the angle with the window

The final momentum is

$p_f = mv sin \theta$

where

v = 4.5 m/s is the final speed (the collision is elastic so the speed is equal, while the direction changes)

$\theta=-25^{\circ}$ (after the rebound, the direction has changed)

So the change in momentum of 1 hailstone is

$\Delta p = mv sin(-25^{\circ})-mu sin(25^{\circ})=-2mu sin(25^{\circ})=-0.0266 kg m/s$

We are interested only in the magnitude, so

$\Delta p = 0.0266 kg m/s$

There are 595 hailstones hitting the window in 49 s, so the total change in momentum is

$\Delta p = 595\cdot 0.0266 = 15.8 kg m/s$

And therefore, the average force on the window is

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{15.8}{49}=0.32 N$

If we put negative charge between two similar positive charges then what is it's equilibrium? And how?

Gnesinka [82]

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Well it depends on the magnitude of charges. Generally , when both positive charges have the same magnitude , their equilibrium point is towards the centre joining the two charges. But if magnitude of one positive charge is higher than the other , then the equilibrium point will be towards the charge having lesser magnitude.

Now , a negative charge is placed in between the two positive charges. So , if both positive charges have same magnitude , they both pull the negative charge towards each other with an equal force. Thus the equilibrium point will be where the negative charge is placed because , both forces are equal , and opposite , so they cancel out each other at the point where the negative charge is placed. However if they are of different magnitudes , then the equilibrium point will be shifted towards the positive charge having less magnitude.

Thank you
