This is a question that utilises Hooke's law, F=kX where F is the magnitude of the force applied, k is the spring constant, and X is the displacement of the end of the spring from its relaxed position.

We know the force and X so we can rearrange to make k=F/X
Then, substitute the values for F and X.

k=3/0.6= 5 N/m

When we draw a diagram of the forces acting on an extended object, the tail of the force vector for the weight should be at?
ser-zykov [4K]
Whenever we represent forces using vectors, we ensure that the vector begins at the point of force exertion. In the case of weight, the point of exertion of the force is known as the center of gravity, which is the point through which the weight of an object can be said to act. Therefore, the downward arrow representing the weight would begin at the center of gravity of the object.

Answer:

  33.725 rpm

Explanation:

The relationship between rotational speed in radians per second and acceleration is ...

  \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{a}{r}}

We want the rotation rate in RPM, so we need the conversion ...

  \text{RPM}=\dfrac{\text{rad}}{\text{s}}\cdot\dfrac{1\,\text{rev}}{2\pi\,\text{rad}}\cdot\dfrac{60\,\text{s}}{1\,\text{min}}

Then the required rotational speed in RPM is ...

  RPM=\sqrt{\dfrac{a}{r}}\cdot\dfrac{30}{\pi}=\dfrac{30}{\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{1.4\cdot 9.8}{1.1}}\approx 33.725

The rotation rate needs to be about 33.7 rpm to give an acceleration of 1.4g at the astronaut's feet.

Ans: Beat Frequency = 1.97Hz

Explanation:
The fundamental frequency on a vibrating string is 

f =   \sqrt{ \frac{T}{4mL} }<span>  -- (A)</span>

<span>here, T=Tension in the string=56.7N,
L=Length of the string=0.66m,
m= mass = 8.3x10^-4kg/m * 0.66m = 5.48x10^-4kg </span>


Plug in the values in Equation (A)

<span>so </span>f = \sqrt{ \frac{56.7}{4*5.48*10^{-4}*0.66} }<span> = 197.97Hz </span>

<span>the beat frequency is the difference between these two frequencies, therefore:
Beat frequency = 197.97 - 196.0 = 1.97Hz

Which two pieces of data indicate that Uranus resides in the outer region of the solar system
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Our solar system has total eight planets out of which four are inner planets and four are outer planets. The four outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The common characteristics of outer planets is that they are gaseous planets. They are larger on size than the inner rocky planets and are faraway from Sun. They have larger period of revolution around the Sun.

Uranus is a gaseous planet and lies far from Sun and hence has large period of revolution. It takes 84 Earth years to revolve around Sun. This data indicates that Uranus resides in the outer region of the Solar System.

A moving sidewalk 95 m in length carries passengers at a speed of 0.53 m/s. One passenger has a normal walking speed of 1.24 m/s
Archy [21]

Answer:

a) t = 1.8 x 10² s

b) t = 54 s

c) t = 49 s

Explanation:

a) The equation for the position of an object moving in a straight line at constan speed is:

x = x0 + v * t

where

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v = velocity

t = time

In this case, the origin of our reference system is at the begining of the sidewalk.

a) To calculate the time the passenger travels on the sidewalk without wlaking, we can use the equation for the position, using as speed the speed of the sidewalk:

x = x0 + v * t

95 m = 0m + 0. 53 m/s * t

t = 95 m/ 0.53 m/s

t = 1.8 x 10² s

b) Now, the speed of the passenger will be her walking speed plus the speed of th sidewalk (0.53 m/s + 1.24 m/s = 1.77 m/s)

t = 95 m/ 1.77 m/s = 54 s

c) In this case, the passenger is located 95 m from the begining of the sidewalk, then, x0 = 95 m and the final position will be x = 0. She walks in an opposite direction to the movement of the sidewalk, towards the origin of the system of reference ( the begining of the sidewalk). Then, her speed will be negative ( v = 0.53 m/s - 2*(1.24 m/s) = -1.95 m/s. Then:

0 m = 95 m -1.95 m/s * t

t = -95 m / -1.95 m/s = 49 s
