To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 15.1 Mechanical Waves. Waves on a string are described by the following general equation y(
NeX [460]

Answer:

The transverse displacement is   y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m    

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

     The generally equation for the mechanical wave is

                    y(x,t) = Acos (kx -wt)

     The speed of the transverse wave is v = 8.25 \ m/s

     The amplitude of the transverse wave is A = 5.50 *10^{-2} m

     The wavelength of the transverse wave is \lambda = 0540 m

      At t= 0.150s , x = 1.51 m

 The angular frequency of the wave is mathematically represented as

          w = vk

Substituting values  

         w = 8.25 * 11.64

        w = 96.03 \ rad/s

The propagation constant k is mathematically represented as

                  k = \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda}

Substituting values

                  k = \frac{2 * 3.142}{0. 540}

                   k =11.64 m^{-1}

Substituting values into the equation for mechanical waves

      y(1.51 , 0.150) = (5.50*10^{-2} ) cos ((11.64 * 1.151 ) - (96.03  * 0.150))

       y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m

A car is moving at a velocity of 25 km/h and increases velocity to 1200 km/h in 2 min. what is the acceleration?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a = 2.72 [m/s2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation:

v_{f} =v_{o} + a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 1200 [km/h]

Vo = initial velocity = 25 [km/h]

t = time = 2 [min] = 2/60 = 0.0333 [h]

1200 = 25 + (a*0.0333)

a = 35250.35 [km/h2]

if we convert these units to units of meters per second squared

35250.35[\frac{km}{h^{2} }]*(\frac{1}{3600^{2} })*[\frac{h^{2} }{s^{2} } ]*(\frac{1000}{1} )*[\frac{m}{km} ] = 2.72 [\frac{m}{s^{2} } ]

aleksklad [387]
The answer is 2.49 x 10^5 KJ. This was obtained (1) use the formula for specific heat to achieve Q or heat then (2) get the energy to melt the copper lastly (3) Subtract both work and the total energy required to completely melt the copper bar is achieved.
