If the tension in a rope is increased what will happen to the speed of a wave traveling through the rope

The speed will increase.

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The speed of wave in a stretched string is directly proportional to the square root of tension in the string and inversely proportional to the square root of mass per unit length.

So, as the tension increases, the velocity also increases.

A heavy meterstick has a mass of 1 kg. When the meterstick is thrown like a spear past you, you measure its momentum to be 2mv.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Its length is measured to be 0.5 m

Explanation:

From theory of relativity (mass variation), we know that:

m = mo/√(1-v²/c²)

Where, m = relative mass

and, mo = rest mass

The momentum of stick while moving, will be:

P = mv

but, it is given in the form of rest mass as:

P = 2(mo)v

thus, by comparison;

2(mo)v = mv

using value of m from theory of relativity;

2(mo)v = (mo)v/√(1-v²/c²)

√(1-v²/c²) = 1/2 ______ eqn(1)

Now, for relativistic length (L), we have the formula from same theory of relativity;

L = (Lo)√(1-v²/c²)

The rest length (Lo) of meter stick is 1 m, and the remaining term on right side √(1-v²/c²), known as Lorentz Factor, can be given by eqn (1), as equal to 1/2.

Thus,

L = (1 m)(1/2)

<u>L = 0.5 m</u>

A camcorder has a power rating of 15 watts. If the output voltage from its battery is 5 volts, what current does it use?

MrMuchimi

Formula

W = E * I

Givens

E = 5 volts

W = 15 watts

I = ?

Solution

W = E * I

15 = 5 * I

15/5 = I

I = 3 amps. Answer

A thin Nichrome wire connected to an ammeter surrounds a region of time-varying magnetic flux, and the ammeter reads 13 amperes.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The current would be same in both situation.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current I = 13 A

Number of turns = 23

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of induced emf is

$\epsilon=NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}$

For N = 1

$\epsilon=A\dfrac{dB}{dt}$

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current

$i=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}$

Put the value of emf

$i=\dfrac{A\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{R}$

Now, if the number of turn is 22 , then induced emf would be

$\epsilon'=NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}$

Then the current would be

$i'=\dfrac{\epsilon'}{NR}$

$i'=\dfrac{NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{NR}$

$i'=\dfrac{A\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{R}$

$i'=i$

Hence, The current would be same in both situation.

The loaded cab of an elevator has a mass of 3.0 x 10 3 kg and moves 200 m up the shaft in 20 s at constant speed. At what averag

Alexeev081 [22]

The average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

The given parameters:

<em>mass, m = 3000 kg</em>
<em>height, h = 200 m</em>
<em>time of motion, t = 20 s</em>

The average rate at which the cable does work is calculated as follows;

$P = \frac{E}{t} \\\\P = \frac{mgh}{t} \\\\P = \frac{3000 \times 9.8 \times 200}{20} \\\\P = 294,000 \ J/s$

Thus, the average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

A 5 kilograms bowling ball is dropped out a window. It hits the ground, and bounces upward. The velocity change of the ball is n

ioda

Answer:

13.5

Explanation:

Mass: 5kg

Initial Velocity: -15

Final Velocity: 12

Force: 10

We can use the equation: Vf = Vi + at

We need to find acceleration, and we can use the equation, F=ma,

We have mass and the force so it would look like this, 10=5a, and 5 times 2 would equal 10, so acceleration would be 2.

Now we have all the variables to find time.

Back to Vf = Vi + at, plug the numbers in, 12 = -15 + 2(t)

Plugging them in into desmos gives 13.5 for time.
