A transverse sinusoidal wave on a string has a period T= 25.0ms and travels in the negative x direction with a speed of 30.0 m/s

. At t = 0 , an element of the string at x = 0 has a transverse position of 2.00cm and is traveling downward with a speed of 2.0 m/s .(a) What is the amplitude of the wave?

The amplitude of the wave is 0.022m

<h3 /><h3>How to solve solve for the amplitude</h3>

<u>Given data</u>

period T= 25.0ms = 0.025s

speed of 30.0 m/s

t = 0

x = 0

transverse position of 2.00cm = 0.02m

<h3 />

wave equation is = y ( x ) = A cos ( ωx + ∅ )

since:

t = 0

x = 0

0.02 = A cos ( 0 + ∅ )

0.02 = A cos ( ∅ )

speed = v ( x )= 2.0 m/s = d y ( x ) / d x

- 2 = - Aω sin ( ∅ )

dividing the equations as below gives

- Aω sin ( ∅ ) / A cos ( ∅ )

- ω tan ( ∅ ) = - 2 / 0.02

ω tan ( ∅ ) = 100

ω = 2 * pi * f = 2 * pi / T = 2 * pi / 0.025 = 80 * pi

tan ( ∅ ) = 100 /( 80* pi )

tan ( ∅ ) = 0.398

∅ = 0.3787 rad

Amplitude = 0.3787 / cos ∅

Amplitude = 0.022m

You are helping two friends from our class with a physics problem where a cart is pushed up a ramp. In examining the motion of t
stiks02 [169]

Answer: Acceleration will have 2 components, vertical and horizontal.

Net-vertical component can be positive, zero or negative depending upon the magnitude of the upward component of the applied acceleration.

Net-horizontal acceleration will  be equal to the horizontal component of the applied acceleration.

Explanation:

Since acceleration is a vector quantity and the cart is being pushed up the ramp, the ramp would be at some angle to the horizontal and hence there will be vertical and horizontal components of acceleration.

<u>For vertical acceleration:</u>

If the magnitude of the upward component of the applied acceleration is greater than the value of the acceleration due to gravity then the net vertical acceleration will be upward because it will overtake the value of acceleration due to gravity.

In case the upward component of the applied acceleration is lesser than the value of the acceleration due to gravity then the net vertical acceleration will be downward.

<u>For horizontal acceleration:</u>

This component remains unaffected and is equal to the horizontal component of the applied acceleration because there is no other acceleration acting in the horizontal direction.

But the net acceleration will not be solely in the vertical or horizontal direction because the block has to move forward on the inclined ramp so there will always exist a horizontal and a vertical component making the net acceleration to parallel to the ramp in upward direction if the body is going up the ramp.

A fish tank is a cube of size L × L × L, where L = 1 m, filled with water. Find
Murljashka [212]

At the bottom of the tank :

P = ρgH

P = (1000 kg/m³)(10 m/s²)(1 m)

P = 10000 N/m²

F = P • A

F = (10000 N/m²)(1 m²)

F = 10000 N

At the side of the tank :

Pav = ½ρgH

Pav = ½(1000 kg/m³)(10 m/s²)(1 m)

Pav = 5000 N/m²

F = P • A

F = (5000 N/m²)(1 m²)

F = 5000 N
