Answer:

The drag force is increase by 2.9

Explanation:

The drag force on the car is:

$F_{drag} =\frac{1}{2} pCAv^{2}$

Where p is the density, A is the area of the car facing the air, C is the drag coefficient and v is the velocity. If k=(pCA)/2, then we have:

Fdrag=kv^2

For the speed 65 km/h:

Fdrag1=k(65^2)

For the speed 110 km/h

Fdrag2=k(110^2)

The ratio is:

Ratio=Fdrag2/Fdrag1=(k*65^2)/(k*110^2)=2.9

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The correct solution will be "12.0 A".

Explanation:

The given values are:

$N_p= 500 \ turn$

$N_s= 200 \ turn$

$I_s= 3.0 \ A$

By using the transformer formula, we get

⇒ $\frac{N_p}{N_s} =\frac{I_s}{I_p}$

⇒ $I_p = I_s\times \frac{N_s}{N_p}$

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $=3.0 \ A\times \frac{2000}{500}$

⇒ $=12.0 \ A$

A thin taut string is fixed at both ends and stretched along the horizontal x-axis with its left end at x = 0. It is vibrating i

Fofino [41]

Answer:

(a) Wavelength is 0.436 m

(b) Length is 0.872 m

Solution:

As per the question:

The eqn of the displacement is given by:

$y(x, t) = (1.22 cm)sin[14.4 m^{- 1}x]cos[(166\ rad/s)t]$ (1)

n = 4

Now,

We know the standard eqn is given by:

$y = AsinKxcos\omega t$ (2)

Now, on comparing eqn (1) and (2):

A = 1.22 cm

K = $14.4 m^{- 1}$

$\omega = 166\ rad/s$

where

A = Amplitude

K = Propagation constant

$\omega$ = angular velocity

Now, to calculate the string's wavelength,

(a) $K = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

where

K = propagation vector

$\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{K}$

$\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{14.4} = 0.436\ m$

(b) The length of the string is given by:

$l = \frac{n\lambda}{2}$

$l = \frac{4\times 0.436}{2} = 0.872\ m$

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$f = \frac{2\pi}{166} = 26.42\ Hz$

Now,

Speed of the wave is given by:

$v = f\lambda$

$v = 26.419\times 0.436 = 11.518\ m/s$
