you can find it using the equation: potential energy=mass*gravitational acceleration*height.


energy=50kg*9.8N/kg*40m=19600Nm=19600J or 19.6kJ


Sometimes they use 10 instead of 9.8 for the g constant.

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}    .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}    .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by 'm_{best}'

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by 'm_{worst}'

Given that:

m_{best} = 1.35 m/s

m_{worst} = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}               (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2} = 0.03 m/s

An electromagnetic wave has a frequency of 1.0 x 10^5. What is the wavelength of the wave?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The frequency , speed and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave are related by the formula

Speed = frequency x wavelength

frequency = speed / wavelength

substituting the values

frequency = 3 x #10 ^8# m /s / 1 x #10^15# m

= 3 x #10^-7# /s
