The tensile stress of the wire supporting 2 kg mass is determined as 6.1 x 10⁷ N/m².
<h3>
Tensile stress of the wire</h3>
The tensile stress of the wire is calculated as follows;
σ = F/A
where;
A = πr² = πD²/4
where;
A = π x (0.64 x 10⁻³)²/4
A = 3.22 x 10⁻⁷ m²
σ = F/A = (mg)/A = (2 x 9.8)/( 3.22 x 10⁻⁷)
σ = 6.1 x 10⁷ N/m²

Answer:
1500 m/s
Explanation:
Recall that for a wave,
Speed = frequency x wavelength
here we are given frequency = 500 Hz and wavelength = 3m
simply substitute into above equation
Speed = 500 Hz x 3m
= 1500 m/s
Explanation:
Image distance, v = -17 cm (-ve for virtual image)
Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 39 cm
Focal length, f = -19.5 cm (-ve for a concave mirror)
(a) Using mirror's formula as :


u = 132.6 cm
So, the object is placed 132.6 cm in front of the mirror.
(b) Magnification of the mirror, 

m = -0.128
Hence, this is the required solution.
