A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.the speed of transverse waves on the wire would be 372.77 m/s

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

It is a particular variety of mechanical waves made up of the disruption brought on by the movements of the energy. In an elastic medium like the air, a sound wave travels through compression and rarefaction.

For calculating the wave velocity of the sound waves generated from the piano can be calculated by the formula

V= √F/μ

where v is the wave velocity of the wave travel on the string

F is the tension in the string of piano

μ is the mass per unit length of the string

As given in question a steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

The μ is the mass per unit length of the string would be

μ = 4.80/(1.150×1000)

μ = 0.0041739 kg/m

By substituting the respective values of the tension on the string and the density(mass per unit length) in the above formula of the wave velocity

V= √F/μ

V=√(580/0.0041739)

V = 372.77 m/s

Thus, the speed of transverse waves on the wire comes out to be 372.77 m/s

Can a body have zero velocity and finite acceleration?Explain

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Kinda? Depends what the question is fully asking

Explanation:

Acceleration is a change in velocity. So I guess if the velocity of something is -2 m/s and its positively accelerating at a value of +1 m/s, then that means every second its velocity changes by +1m/s.

So that -2 m/s thing after one second will be going -1 m/s.

After another second it'll be going 0 m/s.

After another itll be going +1 m/s and so on.

So at one point for a brief moment, it can have an acceleration but be at 0 m/s velocity.

A car speeding down the highway honks its horn, which has a frequency 392 Hz, but a resting bystander hears the frequency 440 Hz

Natali [406]

Answer:

37.42 m/s

Explanation:

We know that apparent frequency, $\bar f$ is given by

$\bar f=f\frac {V}{V-V_s}$ where f is the given frequency in this case 392, V is the speed of sound in air which is given as 343 and $V_s$ is the speed of car which is unknown, \bar f is given as 440 Hz

$440=392\times \frac {343}{343-V_s}\\343-V_s=392\times \frac {343}{440}=305.5818182\\V_s=343-305.5818182=37.41818182\approx 37.42 m/s$

How does an increase in temperature generally affect the rate of a reaction?

Zigmanuir [339]

Most reactions are exothemic. If the forward reaction of an equilibrium reaction is exothemic then the reverse reaction must be endothermic.

If a system in equilibrium is heated, it will move in exothermic direction to give out heat energy.

The choices above are social psychology terms that help describe the people’s actions in their everyday interaction with people. The sentence example is: Those computer geeks are all the same.

They spend all day playing video games and programming their computers to serve them breakfast. I don't think I've ever seen one reading a real book or throwing a baseball. Why, they're almost like machines!

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in

Kryger [21]

The average power is $3.0\cdot 10^6 W$

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

$W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$
