What is the frequency of a wave whose wavelength is 0.7m and whose velocity is 120m/s?

Physics

ANEK [815]3 years ago

Answer:

f=171.43Hz

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

The frequency formula is: f=v÷λ, where <em>v</em> is the velocity and <em>λ</em> is the wavelength.

Then replacing with the data of the problem,

f=\frac{120\frac{m}{s} }{0.7m}

f=171.43\frac{1}{s}

f=171.43 Hz (because \frac{1}{s} = Hz, 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second).

1) Magnitude of the force:

The magnetic field generated by a current-carrying wire is
B= \frac{\mu_0I}{2 \pi r}
where
\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance at which the field is calculated

Using I=135 A, the current flowing in each wire, we can calculate the magnetic field generated by each wire at distance 
r=40.0 cm=0.40 m, 
which is the distance at which the other wire is located:
B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}= \frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7} N/A^2)(135 A) }{2 \pi (0.40 m)}=6.75 \cdot 10^{-5} T

Then we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on each wire by this magnetic field, which is given by:
F=ILB=(135 A)(222 m)(6.75 \cdot 10^{-5}T)=2.03 N

2) direction of the force: 
The two currents run in opposite direction: this means that the force between them is repulsive. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. Let's apply it to one of the two wires, assuming they are in the horizontal plane, and assuming that the current in the wire on the right is directed northwards:
- the magnetic field produced by the wire on the left at the location of the wire on the right is directed upward (the thumb of the right hand is directed as the current, due south, and the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field, upward)

Now let's apply the right-hand rule to the wire on the right:
- index finger: current --> northward
- middle finger: magnetic field --> upward
- thumb: force --> due east --> so the force is repulsive

A similar procedure can be used on the wire on the left, finding that the force exerted on it is directed westwards, so the force between the two wires is repulsive.

As an intern at an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel for rotation about an axis
klio [65]

Hi there!

We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.

Use the kinematic equation:

d = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

The block starts from rest, so:

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\12 = \frac{1}{2}a(4^2)\\\\\frac{24}{16} = a = 1.5 m/s^2

Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:

F = ma = m_bg - T

mb = mass of the block

T = tension of string

Solve for tension:

T = m_bg - ma = 8.2(9.8) - 8.2(1.5) = 68.06 N

Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:

\Sigma \tau = rF\\\\\Sigma\tau = rT

Rewrite:

I\alpha = rT

We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:

\alpha = a/r\\\\\alpha = 1.5/.42= 3.57 rad/sec^2

Now, plug in the values into the equation:

I(3.57) = (0.42)(68.06)\\\\I = (0.42)(68.06)/(3.57) = \boxed{8.00 kgm^2}

Which type of acceleration would be best if you were merging onto the interstate?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

If merging onto an interstate, it is best to merge at the speed of the moving traffic.

Explanation:

As a driver, you cannot always count on the other drivers to see you wanting to merge onto the interstate, and even if they see you, they might not be willing to stop just so you merge, therefore it is best advised to look for a gap in the traffic and merge at the traffic speed.

A 1.5 wire carries a 2 a current when a potential difference of 87 v is applied. What is the resistance of the wire
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Ohm's law states that V = IR

                                   87 = 2 x R

                                    R = 87/2 ohms

Hope this helps :)
