A transverse mechanical wave is traveling along a string lying along the x-axis. The displacement of the string as a function of

position and time, y(x,t), is described by the following equation:
y(x,t)=0.0480×sin(5.40x-128t)
where x and y are in meters and the time is in seconds.
1. What is the wavelength of the wave?
2. What is the velocity of the wave? (Define positive velocity along the positive x-axis.)
3. What is the maximum speed in the y-direction of any piece of the string? (Give a positive answer for speed.)

(1) The wavelength of the wave is 1.164 m.

(2) The  velocity of the wave is 23.7 m/s.

(3) The maximum speed in the y-direction of any piece of the string is 6.14 m/s.

<h3> Wavelength of the wave</h3>

A general wave equation is given as;

y(x, t) = A sin(Kx - ωt)

<h3>Velocity of the wave</h3>

v = ω/K

From the given wave equation, we have,

y(x, t) = 0.048 sin(5.4x - 128t)

v = ω/K

where;

  • ω corresponds to 128
  • k corresponds to 5.4

v = 128/5.4

v = 23.7 m/s

<h3>Wavelength of the wave</h3>

λ = 2π/K

λ = (2π)/(5.4)

λ = 1.164 m

<h3>Maximum speed of the wave</h3>

v(max) = Aω

where;

  • A is amplitude of the wave
  • ω is angular speed of the wave

v(max) = (0.048)(128)

v(max) = 6.14 m/s

Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 1.164 m.

The  velocity of the wave is 23.7 m/s.

The maximum speed in the y-direction of any piece of the string is 6.14 m/s.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

Explanation:

given,

angular speed of the fly wheel = 940 rad/s

mass of the cylinder = 630 Kg

radius = 1.35 m

KE of flywheel = ?

moment of inertia of the cylinder

I = \dfrac{1}{2}mr^2

 =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 630\times 1.35^2

 = 574 kg m²

kinetic energy of the fly wheel

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

KE =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 574\times 940^2

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

the kinetic energy of the flywheel is equal to KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

A metal block suspended from a spring balance is submerged in water. You observe that the block displaces 55 cm3 of water and th
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

8977.7 kg/m^3

Explanation:

Volume of water displaced = 55 cm^3 = 55 x 10^-6 m^3

Reading of balance when block is immersed in water = 4.3 N

According to the Archimedes principle, when a body is immersed n a liquid partly or wholly, then there is a loss in the weight of body which is called upthrust or buoyant force. this buoyant force is equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the body.

Buoyant force = weight of the water displaced by the block

Buoyant force = Volume of water displaced x density of water x g

                        = 55 x 10^-6 x 1000 x .8 = 0.539 N

True weight of the body = Weight of body in water + buoyant force

m g = 4.3 + 0.539 = 4.839

m = 0.4937 kg

Density of block = mass of block / volume of block

= \frac{0.4937}{55\times10^{-6}}

Density of block = 8977.7 kg/m^3

We now have an algebraic expression with only one variable, which can be solved. Once we have that, we can plug it back into one
Len [333]

Answer:

A=1

B=-2

Explanation:

Part A and B of the question wasn't given, however, I attached the relevant parts to solve this question as follows.

From part B as attached, it shows that the right option is C which is

2A+3B=-4

Substituting B with 3A-5 then we form the second equation as shown

2A+3(3A-5)=-4

By simplifying the above equation, we obtain

2A+9A-15=-4

Re-arranging, then

11A=-4+15

Finally

11A=11

A=1

To obtain B, we already know that 3A-5 so substituting the value of A into the above then we obtain

B=3(1)-5=-2

Therefore, required values are 1 and -2

Answer:

Crumple zones are designed to absorb and redistribute the force of a collision. ... Also known as a crush zone, crumple zones are areas of a vehicle that are designed to deform and crumple in a collision. This absorbs some of the energy of the impact, preventing it from being transmitted to the occupants.
