Explanation:

It is given that,

length of steel wire, l = 0.75 m

Mass of the wire, m = 12 g = 0.012 kg

Fundamental frequency, f = 120 Hz

We need to find the mass of the anvil (m'). The fundamental frequency is given by :

f=\dfrac{v}{2l}

v is the speed of the mass

Speed is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

\mu is the mass per unit length,\mu=\dfrac{m}{l}

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

T is the tension in the wire,

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{Tl}{m}}

T=4f^2lm

T=4(120)^2\times 0.75\times 0.012

T = 518.4 N

Tension in the wire, T = m' g

m'=\dfrac{T}{g}

m'=\dfrac{518.4}{9.8}

m' = 52.89 kg

So, the mass of the anvil is 52.89 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the square root of 25x10^12
kirill115 [55]

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} }

In order to find it's square root, we could make it into two square roots.

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} } = \sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{10^{12}}

Let us find the square roots of both radicals seprately.

\sqrt{25} =\sqrt{5*5}=5

Each  pair  of a number inside square root gives a number out .

\sqrt{10^{12}} = \sqrt{10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10}   \ \ ( \ makes \ 6 \ pairs \ of \ 10 )

\sqrt{10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10*10} = 10*10*10*10*10*10

= 10^6.

Therefore,

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} }=\sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{10^{12}}={5 \times 10^6}

\sqrt{25 \times 10^{12} } = {5 \times 10^6}
