Answer:

Up and down movement of hands shows the motion of the students.

Explanation:

In this case, Ten students stand in a circle and are told to make a transverse wave. In transverse wave the particles move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion. The maximum displacement of particles creates the crest and the minimum displacement creates the troughs.

In order to describe the motion of of the students, each student has to move his or her hand up and down continuously. The movement in upper direction forms crest and the movement in downward direction forms trough.

A spring has a natural length of 0.5 m and was stretched by 0.02 m. if the spring had a resultant energy of 0.5 j what is the sp
Anna71 [15]

\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}

Explanation:

       Natural length of a spring is 0.5\text{ }m. The spring is streched by 0.02\text{ }m. The resultant energy of the spring is 0.5\text{ }J.

       The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant k and elongation x is given by \dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}.

       So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant k.

       \text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

∴ The spring constant of the spring = 2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

A cyclotron with a magnetic field of 0.47 t is designed to accelerate protons in a circle with a radius 0.68 m. What is the angu
Ghella [55]

The angular frequency of the cyclotron is 0.07 x 10^{8}Hz.

<h3>What is angular frequency?</h3>
  • Angular frequency, abbreviated "ω" is a scalar measure of rotation rate in physics.
  • It describes the rate of change of the argument of the sine function, the rate of change of the phase of a sinusoidal waveform, or the angular displacement per unit of time.
<h3>What is cyclotron?</h3>

The cyclotron device is made to accelerate charge particles to extremely high speeds by applying crossed electric and magnetic fields.

<h3>Calculation of angular frequency:</h3>

Given,

B = 0.47 T

r = 0.68

mass of proton = 1.6x10^{-27}

q = 1.6 x 10^{-19}

so, the frequency is:

f = qB/2\pim

f = 1.6 x 10^{-19} x 0.47/2x3.14x1.6x10^{-27}

f = 0.07 x 10^{8}

Hence, the angular frequency of the cyclotron is  0.07 x 10^{8}Hz.
