The rope vibrates every 0.5 s: it means that its period is

T=0.5 s


The frequency of an oscillation is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

f=\frac{1}{T}

Therefore, if we substitute T=0.5 s in the formula, we get:

f=\frac{1}{0.5 s}=2 Hz

When a mass M hangs from a vertical wire of length L, waves travel on this wire with a speed V. What will be the speed of these
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

a)  v = 0.7071 v₀, b) v= v₀, c)  v = 0.577 v₀, d)   v = 1.41 v₀, e)  v = 0.447 v₀

Explanation:

The speed of a wave along an eta string given by the expression

          v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{ \mu } }

where T is the tension of the string and μ is linear density

a) the mass of the cable is double

          m = 2m₀

let's find the new linear density

          μ = m / l

iinitial density

          μ₀ = m₀ / l

final density

          μ = 2m₀ / lo

          μ = 2 μ₀

we substitute in the equation for the velocity

initial            v₀ = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

with the new dough

                    v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 2 \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2  \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2 v₀

                    v = 0.7071 v₀

b) we double the length of the cable

If the cable also increases its mass, the relationship is maintained

              μ = μ₀

   in this case the speed does not change

c) the cable l = l₀ and m = 3m₀

we look for the density

           μ = 3m₀ / l₀

           μ = 3 m₀/l₀

           μ = 3 μ₀

            v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 3 \mu_o} }

            v = 1 /√3  v₀

            v = 0.577 v₀

d) l = 2l₀

            μ = m₀ / 2l₀

            μ = μ₀/ 2

           v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \frac{ \mu_o}{2} } }

           v = √2 v₀

            v = 1.41 v₀

e) m = 10m₀ and l = 2l₀

we look for the density

             μ = 10 m₀/2l₀

             μ = 5 μ₀

we look for speed

             v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{5 \mu_o} }

             v = 1 /√5  v₀

             v = 0.447 v₀

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of
3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the <u>cornea</u>, which<u> bends this ray and begins to form an image</u>, then light passes through the <u>pupil</u>, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.  

After light travels through pupil it passes through the <u>lens</u>, where <u>the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina. </u>

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.

On heating from low temperature at 1 atm of pressure which substance is most likely to sublime rather than melt?
cluponka [151]
Since the choices are not given, I can't give an exact answer. Sublimation is the physical change occurring from solid to gas. This is very rare because the molecular arrangement of a solid and gas are opposite to each other. Thus, it depends on the properties of the substance. For example, napthalene could sublime at room temperature.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a tiger that weighs 200 N standing on a rock that is 2 m above the ground?
Nikitich [7]
G.P.E = mgh
Weight = mg = 200N

So G.P.E = 200 * 2 = 400 Joules
