In the sport of parasailing, a person is attached to a rope being pulled by a boat while hanging from a parachute-like sail. A r

ider is towed at a constant speed by a rope that is at an angle of 19 ∘ from horizontal. The tension in the rope is 2300 N. The force of the sail on the rider is 30∘ from horizontal.What is the weight of the rider?

You are standing at the midpoint between two speakers, a distance D away from each. The speakers are playing the exact same soun
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

Explanation:

The wavelength of sound can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = velocity / frequency.

Thus, it becomes:

λ = 340 / 170

λ = 2 m.

When the person stands ideally in the center between the speakers, the sound waves reaching him are perfectly aligned (no path difference), resulting in maximum sound intensity.

As he moves closer to one of the speakers, his proximity to that speaker increases while the distance to the other speaker decreases, creating a path difference in the sound waves reaching his ears.

If he walks 0.5 m toward one speaker, the created path difference becomes:

0.5 x 2 = 1 m.

This path difference equals λ / 2, leading to destructive interference, resulting in minimal sound being audible.

As he continues walking a full 1 m, the created path difference totals 2 m.

This corresponds to a path difference of λ, causing constructive interference and maximum sound perception.

Finally, if he moves an additional 1.5 m, the resulting path difference increases to 3 m.

Thus, we arrive at a path difference of 3 λ / 2, producing destructive interference once more, leading to minimum sound being perceived again.

In summary, the man begins at a maximum intensity point, moves to minimum intensity, then back to a maximum, and ultimately ends at another minimum sound intensity position.

Lamar has been running sprints to prepare for his next football game.He has found that he can maintain his maximum speed for 45
Sav [3153]

Answer:

Please refer to the explanation

Explanation:

Race distance is 5km

Top speed = 45 yards

Converting yards to kilometers:

1km equals 1093.613 yards

x = 45 yards

(1093.613 * x) = 45

x = 45 / 1093.613

x = 0.0411480 km

Where x indicates the maximum distance he can sustain his highest speed in kilometers.

Thus, from the data available, we can determine that Lamar will not be able to maintain his maximum speed for the full 5km race, as he can only sustain it for 0.0411 kilometers.

Water is boiled at 300 kPa pressure in a pressure cooker. The cooker initially contains 3 kg of water. Once boiling started, it
inna [3103]

Answer:

The cooker receives an average energy transfer rate of 1.80 kW.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure of the boiling water = 300 kPa

Mass of water = 3 kg

Duration = 30 min

Dryness fraction of the water = 0.5

What is the average energy transfer rate to the cooker?

We know that,

The specific enthalpy of vapor at 300 kPa is

h_{f}=561.47\ kJ/kg

h_{fg}=2163.8\ kJ/kg

We need to determine the initial state enthalpy of water

h_{1}=h_{f}

h_{1}=561.47\ kJ/kg

We must find the enthalpy of water in the final state

Using the enthalpy formula

h_{2}=h_{f}+xh_{fg}

Insert the value into the formula

h_{2}=561.47+0.5\times2163.8

h_{2}=1643.37\ kJ/kg

Next, we calculate the energy transfer rate to the cooker

Using the energy rate formula

Q=\dfrac{m(h_{2}-h_{1})}{t}

Substituting the value into the formula

Q=\dfrac{3\times(1643.37-561.47)}{30\times60}

Q=1.80\ kW

Therefore, the average energy transfer rate to the cooker stands at 1.80 kW.
