A 68.0 Kg tightrope walker stands at the center of a rope. The rope supports are 10 m apart and the rope sags 8.00 degrees at ea

ch end. The tightrope walker crouches down, then leaps straight up with an acceleration of 8.10 m/s^2 to catch a passing trapeze. What is the tension in the rope as he jumps?

Answer:

Tension= 4,373.70N

Explanation:

Ma= Sum of forces

Horizontal forces are:

0= T1costheta=T2costheta

T1=T2=T

Vertical forces are:

Ma= T1sin8°+ T2sin8° - mg

Ma= 2Tsin8° - mg

Therefore ,

T= m(a+g)/(2sin8°)

T= 68(8.10+9.8)/2×0.139

68(17.9)/0.2783

T= 4373.697

T= 4373.70N

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Increase in wave frequency

Explanation:

When we talk about acoustics we are dealing with sound waves, and one of their main components along with the velocity and wavelength is the <u>frequency.</u>

In this sense, the frequency of any wave refers to how fast (or slow) a wave oscillates. For example, in the especific case of sound waves when the oscillation is faster, the frequency is higher and the pitch gets higher as well.

Object A with a mass of 500 kilograms hits stationary object B with a mass of 920 kilograms. If the collision is elastic, what h
Vika [28.1K]
In elastic collision, both the kinetic energy and momentum are conserved. Conservation means that both the kinetic energy and momentum will have the same values before and after elastic collision.

<span>As the object A has low mass than object B. Hence upon collision, object B moves forward, while object A will move backward. So option "C" is correct. </span>

A nonuniform, 80.0-g, meterstick balances when the support is placed at the 51.0-cm mark. At what location on the meterstick sho
Gnoma [55]

Answer:34 cm

Explanation:

Given

mass of meter stick m=80 gm

stick is balanced when support is placed at 51 cm mark

Let us take 5 gm tack is placed at x cm on meter stick so that balancing occurs at x=50 cm mark

balancing torque

80\times 10^{-3}(51-50)=5\times 10^{-3}(50-x)

80=5(50-x)

80=250-5x

5x=170

x=\frac{170}{5}

x=34 cm
