The upper end of a 3.80-m-long steel wire is fastened to the ceiling, and a 54.0-kg object is suspended from the lower end of th

e wire. you observe that it takes a transverse pulse 0.0492 s to travel from the bottom to the top of the wire. what is the mass of the wire?

Considering that the length of the steel is l = 3.80 m and the mass m = 54.0 kg
v = s/t
 v = 3.8/0.0492 
 v = 77.23 m/s  
 The speed formula for a wire is given by
 v = ( T/ÎĽ )^1/2  
 where T represents the tension in the string and ÎĽ denotes the mass per unit length. 
 v = ( Tl/m )^1/2.......(substituting ÎĽ with m/l) 
 Given that T = 550N  
 v = [ 550(3.8)/m ]^1/2 
 If we square both sides, we find that 
 v^2 = 550(3.8)/m 
 v^2 = 2090/m 
 Substituting the previously calculated value of v yields the solution
  m = 0.35 kg

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 cans, 0.355 - l each,
Keith_Richards [3271]
Flow rate calculations yield 220 cans, each with a volume of 0.355 l, leading to 78.1 l/min or 1.3 l/s or 0.0013 m³/s.

At Point 2:
A2 = 8 cm² = 0.0008 m²
V2 = Flow rate/A2 = 0.0013/0.0008 = 1.625 m/s
P1 = 152 kPa = 152000 Pa

At Point 1:
A1 = 2 cm² = 0.0002 m²
V1 = Flow rate/A1 = 0.0013/0.0002 = 6.5 m/s
P1 =?
Height = 1.35 m

Using Bernoulli’s principle;
P2 + 1/2 * V2² / density = P1 + 1/2 * V1² / density + density * gravitational acceleration * height
=> 152000 + 0.5 * (1.625)² * 1000 = P1 + 0.5 * (6.5)² * 1000 + (1000 * 9.81 * 1.35)
=> 153320.31 = P1 + 34368.5
=> P1 = 1533210.31 - 34368.5 = 118951.81 Pa = 118.95 kPa

When a downward force is applied at a point 0.60 m to the left of a fulcrum, equilibrium is obtained by placing a mass of 10–7 k
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

force = 6.53× 10^{-7} N

Explanation:

Provided data

downward force = 0.60 m

mass m = 10^{-7} kg

distance h = 0.40 m

to determine

magnitude of the downward force

solution

we know here mg is apply 0.4 m away from support and

thus applied force is d = 0.6 m from support

therefore

by balancing torque we can compute force

as

force = mass × g × h / d

substituting the values

force = mass × g × h / d

force = ( 10^{-7} × 9.81 × 0.4 ) / 0.6

force = 6.53× 10^{-7} N

A 75.0-kg person climbs stairs, gaining 2.50 meters in height. Find the work done to accomplish this task. 1.84 x 103 J
Yuliya22 [3333]
<span>The work done corresponds to the potential energy that the person acquires while ascending the stairs.
work = potential energy acquired = mgh
W = 75kg * 9.8m/s² * 2.50m = 1837.5 J</span>
