What are the rarefaction and compression regions of a guitar string

Physics

Answer:

The middle and end of the string respectively

Explanation:

Rarefaction means region of maximum displacement and compression means region of minimum displacement, hence.

We expect a maximum displacement at the middle of the string because it is said to vibrate greatest at this point and conversely vibrate least at the end point which is the region of compression.

Answer:

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

$a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2$

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

$a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2$

Explanation:

By momentum conservation along x direction we will have

$mv_i = \frac{m}{2}v_1 + \frac{m}{2}v_2$

so we have

$v_1 + v_2 = 2v$

$v_1 + v_2 = 4.68$

also by energy conservation

$\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17 J$

$\frac{1}{4}m(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17$

$(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - 2v^2 = \frac{4}{7.7}(17)$

$(4.68 - v_2)^2 + v_2^2 - 2v^2 = 8.83$

$21.9 + 2v_2^2 - 9.36 v_2 - 10.95 = 8.83$

$2v_2^2 - 9.36v_2 + 2.12 = 0$

by solving above equation we will have

$v_1 = 4.44 m/s$

$v_2 = 0.24 m/s$

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

$a_1 = \frac{4.44 - 2.34}{0.16}$

$a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2$

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

$a_2 = \frac{0.24 - 2.34}{0.16}$

$a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2$

A small sandbag is dropped from rest from a hovering hot-air balloon. (assume the positive direction is upward.) (a) after 1.5 s

marishachu [46]

solution:

We know v0 = 0, a = 9.8, t = 4.0. We need to solve for v

so,

we use the equation:

v = v0 + at

v = 0 + 9.8*4.0

v = 39.2 m/s

Now we just need to solve for d, so we use the equation:

d = v0t + 1/2*a*t^2

d = 0*4.0 + 1/2*9.8*4.0^2

d = 78.4 m

The seismic activity density of a region is the ratio of the number of earthquakes during a given time span to the land area aff

Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.0059

Explanation:

According to the question the seismic activity density is given by

$\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{\text{Number of Earthquakes over a given time span}}{\text{The land area affected}}$

Here,

Number of Earthquakes over a given time span = 424

The land area affected = 71300 mi²

So,

$\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{424}{71300}\\\Rightarrow \text{Seismic activity density}=0.0059$

The seismic activity density is 0.0059

Answer:

$h = 18.75 m$

Now when it will reach at point B then its normal force is just equal to ZERO

$N_B = 0$

$F_n = 1.72 \times 10^4$

Explanation:

Since we need to cross both the loops so least speed at the bottom must be

$v = \sqrt{5 R g}$

also by energy conservation this is gained by initial potential energy

$mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v = \sqrt{2gh}$

so we will have

$\sqrt{2gh} = \sqrt{5Rg}$

now we have

$h = \frac{5R}{2}$

here we have

R = 7.5 m

so we have

$h = \frac{5(7.5)}{2}$

$h = 18.75 m$

Now when it will reach at point B then its normal force is just equal to ZERO

$N_B = 0$

now when it reach point C then the speed will be

$mgh - mg(2R_c) = \frac{1}{2]mv_c^2$

$v_c^2 = 2g(h - 2R_c)$

$v_c = 13.1 m/s$

now normal force at point C is given as

$F_n = \frac{mv_c^2}{R_c} - mg$

$F_n = \frac{700\times 13.1^2}{5} - (700 \times 9.8)$

$F_n = 1.72 \times 10^4$
