Answer:
The wavelength will be 33.9 cm
Explanation:
Given;
frequency of the wave, F = 1200 Hz
Tension on the wire, T = 800 N
wavelength, λ = 39.1 cm
[tex]F = \frac{ \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where;
F is the frequency of the wave
T is tension on the string
μ is mass per unit length of the string
λ is wavelength
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } = F \lambda\\\\\frac{T}{\mu} = F^2\lambda^2\\\\\mu = \frac{T}{F^2\lambda^2} \\\\\frac{T_1}{F^2\lambda _1^2} = \frac{T_2}{F^2\lambda _2^2} \\\\\frac{T_1}{\lambda _1^2} = \frac{T_2}{\lambda _2^2}\\\\T_1 \lambda _2^2 = T_2\lambda _1^2\\\\[/tex]
when the tension is decreased to 600 N, that is T₂ = 600 N
[tex]T_1 \lambda _2^2 = T_2\lambda _1^2\\\\\lambda _2^2 = \frac{T_2\lambda _1^2}{T_1} \\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{\frac{T_2\lambda _1^2}{T_1}} \\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{\frac{600* 0.391^2}{800}}\\\\\lambda _2 = \sqrt{0.11466} \\\\\lambda _2 =0.339 \ m\\\\\lambda _2 =33.9 \ cm[/tex]
Therefore, the wavelength will be 33.9 cm
In a high school swim competition, a student takes 1.6 s to complete 1.5 somersaults. Determine the average angular speed of the diver, in rad/s, during this time interval.
Answer:
The angular speed is [tex]w = 5.89 \ rad/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time taken is [tex]t = 1.6 s[/tex]
The number of somersaults is n = 1.5
The total angular displacement during the somersault is mathematically represented as
[tex]\theta = n * 2 * \pi[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\theta = 1.5 * 2 * 3.142[/tex]
[tex]\theta = 9.426 \ rad[/tex]
The angular speed is mathematically represented as
[tex]w = \frac{\theta }{t}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]w = \frac{9.426}{1.6}[/tex]
[tex]w = 5.89 \ rad/s[/tex]
At what temperature will silver have a resistivity that is two times the resistivity of iron at room temperature? (Assume room temperature is 20° C.)
Answer:
The temperature of silver at this given resistivity is 2971.1 ⁰C
Explanation:
The resistivity of silver is calculated as follows;
[tex]R_t = R_o[1 + \alpha(T-T_o)]\\\\[/tex]
where;
Rt is the resistivity of silver at the given temperature
Ro is the resistivity of silver at room temperature
α is the temperature coefficient of resistance
To is the room temperature
T is the temperature at which the resistivity of silver will be two times the resistivity of iron at room temperature
[tex]R_t = R_o[1 + \alpha(T-T_o)]\\\\\R_t = 1.59*10^{-8}[1 + 0.0038(T-20)][/tex]
Resistivity of iron at room temperature = 9.71 x 10⁻⁸ ohm.m
When silver's resistivity becomes 2 times the resistivity of iron, we will have the following equations;
[tex]R_t,_{silver} = 2R_o,_{iron}\\\\1.59*10^{-8}[1 + 0.0038(T-20)] =(2 *9.71*10^{-8})\\\\\ \ (divide \ through \ by \ 1.59*10^{-8})\\\\1 + 0.0038(T-20) = 12.214\\\\1 + 0.0038T - 0.076 = 12.214\\\\0.0038T +0.924 = 12.214\\\\0.0038T = 12.214 - 0.924\\\\0.0038T = 11.29\\\\T = \frac{11.29}{0.0038} \\\\T = 2971.1 \ ^0C[/tex]
Therefore, the temperature of silver at this given resistivity is 2971.1 ⁰C
Given that the velocity of blood pumping through the aorta is about 30 cm/s, what is the total current of the blood passing through the aorta (in grams of blood per second)?
Answer:
94.248 g/sec
Explanation:
For solving the total current of the blood passing first we have to solve the cross sectional area which is given below:
[tex]A_1 = \pi R^2\\\\A_1 = \pi (1)^2\\\\A_1 = 3.1416 cm^2[/tex]
And, the velocity of blood pumping is 30 cm^2
Now apply the following formula to solve the total current
[tex]Q = \rho A_1V_1\\\\Q = (1)(3.1416)(30)\\\\[/tex]
Q = 94.248 g/sec
Basically we applied the above formula So, that the total current could come
A positive kaon (K+) has a rest mass of 494 MeV/c² , whereas a proton has a rest mass of 938 MeV/c². If a kaon has a total energy that is equal to the proton rest energy, the speed of the kaon is most nearly:___________.
A. 0.25c
B. 0.40c
C. 0.55c
D. 0.70c
E. 0.85c
Answer:
0.85c
Explanation:
Rest mass of Kaon [tex]M_{0K}[/tex] = 494 MeV/c²
Rest mass of proton [tex]M_{0P}[/tex] = 938 MeV/c²
The rest energy is gotten by multiplying the rest mass by the square of the speed of light c²
for the kaon, rest energy [tex]E_{0K}[/tex] = 494c² MeV
for the proton, rest energy [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] = 938c² MeV
Recall that the rest energy, and the total energy are related by..
[tex]E[/tex] = γ[tex]E_{0}[/tex]
which can be written in this case as
[tex]E_{K}[/tex] = γ[tex]E_{0K}[/tex] ...... equ 1
where [tex]E[/tex] = total energy of the kaon, and
[tex]E_{0}[/tex] = rest energy of the kaon
γ = relativistic factor = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} } }[/tex]
where [tex]\beta = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]
But, it is stated that the total energy of the kaon is equal to the rest mass of the proton or its equivalent rest energy, therefore...
[tex]E_{K}[/tex] = [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] ......equ 2
where [tex]E_{K}[/tex] is the total energy of the kaon, and
[tex]E_{0P}[/tex] is the rest energy of the proton.
From [tex]E_{K}[/tex] = [tex]E_{0P}[/tex] = 938c²
equ 1 becomes
938c² = γ494c²
γ = 938c²/494c² = 1.89
γ = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} } }[/tex] = 1.89
1.89[tex]\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex] = 1
squaring both sides, we get
3.57( 1 - [tex]\beta^{2}[/tex]) = 1
3.57 - 3.57[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex] = 1
2.57 = 3.57[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\beta^{2}[/tex] = 2.57/3.57 = 0.72
[tex]\beta = \sqrt{0.72}[/tex] = 0.85
but, [tex]\beta = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]
v/c = 0.85
v = 0.85c
Four identical charges particles of charge 1Uc, 2Uc,
3Uc and 4Uc
are placed at x = lm, x=2m,
x=3m and
x=5m. The electric field intensity
at origin is?
Answer:
17.94 kN/C is the electric field intensity at the origin due to the charges.
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that
The distance of 1 μC from origin = 1 m
The distance of 2 μC from origin = 2 m
The distance of 3 μC from origin = 3 m
The distance of 4 μC from origin = 5 m
Therefore, for us to find the electric field intensity, we'll solve below:
The formula for Electric field intensity = ( k * q ) / ( r * r )
where , r is distance ,
k = 9 * 10^9 ,
and , q is charge .
now ,
electric field intensity at the origin = [ k * 10^(-6) / 1 * 1 ] +[ k * 2 * 10^(-6) / 2 * 2 ] + [ k * 3 * 10^(-6) / 3 * 3 ] + [ k * 4 * 10^(-6) / 5 * 5 ]
=> electric field intensity at the origin = k * 10^(-6) [ 1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 4/25 ] N/C
=> electric field intensity at the origin = 9 * 10^9 * 10^(-6) * 1.99 N/C
=> electric field intensity at the origin = 17.94 kN/C
Wind gusts create ripples on the ocean that have a wavelength of 3.03 cm and propagate at 3.37 m/s. What is their frequency (in Hz)?
Answer:
Their frequency is 111.22 Hz
Explanation:
Wavelength is the minimum distance between two successive points on the wave that are in the same state of vibration and is expressed in units of length (m).
Frequency is the number of vibrations that occur in a unit of time. Its unit is s⁻¹ or hertz (Hz).
The propagation speed of a wave is the quantity that measures the speed at which the wave's disturbance propagates throughout its displacement. The speed at which the wave propagates depends on both the type of wave and the medium through which it propagates. Relate wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) inversely proportional using the following equation:
v = f * λ.
Then the frequency can be calculated as: f=v÷λ
In this case:
λ=3.03 cm=0.0303 m (1m=100 cm)v= 3.37 m/sReplacing:
[tex]f=\frac{3.37 \frac{m}{s} }{0.0303 m}[/tex]
Solving:
f=111.22 Hz
Their frequency is 111.22 Hz
An electron, moving west, enters a magnetic field of a certain strength. Because of this field the electron curves upward. What is the direction of the magnetic field?
Answer:
Towards the west.
Explanation:
The direction of a magnetic field lines is the direction north end of a compass needle points. The magnetic field exert force on positive charge.
Using the magnetic rule,which indicate that in order to find the direction of magnetic force on a moving charge, the thumb of the right hand point in the direction of force, the index finger in the direction of velocity charge and the middle finger in the direction of magnetic field.
According to the right hand rule, the electron moving moving west which is the thumb, the direction of the electron is west which is the middle finger and it is upward
