Answer:
f1 = 12.90 Hz
Explanation:
To calculate the first harmonic frequency you use the following formula for n = 1:
( 1 )
It is necessary that the unist are in meters, then you have:
L: length of the string = 60cm = 0.6m
M: mass of the string = 0.05kg
T: tension on the string = 20 N
you replace the values of L, M and T in the expression (1) for getting f1:
Hence, the first harmonic has a frequency of 12.90 Hz
a. 46 m/s east
The jet here is moving with a uniform accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find its velocity:
where
v is the velocity calculated at time t
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
The jet in the problem has, taking east as positive direction:
u = +16 m/s is the initial velocity
is the acceleration
Substituting t = 10 s, we find the final velocity of the jet:
And since the result is positive, the direction is east.
b. 310 m
The displacement of the jet can be found using another suvat equation
where
s is the displacement
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the jet in this problem,
u = +16 m/s is the initial velocity
is the acceleration
t = 10 s is the time
Substituting into the equation,
Answer:
Explanation:
A charge located at a point will experience a zero electrostatic force if the resultant electric field on it due to any other charge(s) is zero.
is located at the origin. The net force on it will only be zero if the resultant electric field intensity due to
and
at the origin is equal to zero. Therefore we can perform this solution without necessarily needing the value of
.
Let the electric field intensity due to be +
and that due to
be -
since the charge is negative. Hence at the origin;
From equation (1) above, we obtain the following;
From Coulomb's law the following relationship holds;
where is the distance of
from the origin,
is the distance of
from the origin and k is the electrostatic constant.
It therefore means that from equation (2) we can write the following;
k can cancel out from both side of equation (3), so that we finally obtain the following;
Given;
Substituting these values into equation (4); we obtain the following;
