it takes 50 seconds for a wave with a wavelength of 0.2 m to travel past you. What is the frequency of the wave?

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: The answer is 13.02 meter

Explanation: your question is incomplete, the complete question is this if A string or rope will break apart if it is placed under too much tensile stress. Thicker ropes can withstand more tension without breaking because the thicker the rope, the greater the cross-sectional area and the smaller the stress. One type of steel has a density of

7750kg/m3 and will break if the tensile stress exceeds 7.0×108N/m2.

You want to make a guitar string from a mass of 4.5 g of this type of steel. In use, the guitar string must be able to withstand a tension of 900 N without breaking. Your job is the following.

(a) Determine the maximum length the string can have

Answer:

As we know that density(p)= mass(m)/volume(V)

Solve for volume(V)= mass/density

If the given mass value is in gram then we have to divide it by 1000 to get the value in kilogram so our mass in kg will be 3.7/1000= 0.0037 kg

And if density is in kg/m^3

Then volume will be V= 0.0037/7730 =>

4.79^10-7m^3

Now we know that stress = Force/Area

For Area = force/stress => 900/7*10^8=> 2795.95m^2

For length= volume/Area => 4.79^10-7/2795.95

Length= 13.02 m

Determine the specific heat of a certain metal if a 450 gram sample of it loses 34 500 Joules of heat as its temperature starts

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

c = 0.4356 J/gK

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 450 grams

Initial temperature, T1 = 150°C

Final temperature, T2 = 53°C

Quantity of heat = 34500 Joules

To find the specific heat capacity of the metal;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

$Q = mcdt$

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 53 - 150

dt = -97°C

Converting the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin, we have;

dt = 273 + (-97) = 176 Kelvin

Making c the subject of formula, we have;

$c = \frac {Q}{mdt}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$c = \frac {34500}{450*176}$

$c = \frac {34500}{79200}$

c = 0.4356 J/gK

In this problem, you will apply kinematic equations to a jumping flea. Take the magnitude of free-fall acceleration to be 9.80m/

polet [3.4K]

V o - initial velocity
v = velocity at the maximum height,
v² = v o² - 2 g h
v = 0
0 = v o² - 2 g h
v o² = 2 g h = 2 · 9.80 · 0.460
v o² = 9.052
v o = √9.052 = 3.004197 m/s ≈ 3 m/s

Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases

olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.

Hope you understood
