Fellow student of mathematical bent tells you that the wave function of a traveling wave on a thin rope is y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[(

bezimeni [28]

Answer

given,

y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[( 7.02 rad/m )x+( 743 rad/s )t]

length of the rope = 1.33 m

mass of the rope = 3.31 g

comparing the given equation from the general wave equation

y(x,t)= A cos[k x+ω t]

A is amplitude

now on comparing

a) Amplitude = 2.20 mm

b) frequency =

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

$f = \dfrac{743}{2\pi}$

f = 118.25 Hz

c) wavelength

$k= \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

$\lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{k}$

$\lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{7.02}$

$\lambda= 0.895\ m$

d) speed

$v = \dfrac{\omega}{k}$

$v = \dfrac{743}{7.02}$

v = 105.84 m/s

e) direction of the motion will be in negative x-direction

f) tension

$T = \dfrac{v^2\ m}{L}$

$T = \dfrac{(105.84)^2\times 3.31 \times 10^{-3}}{1.33}$

T = 27.87 N

g) Power transmitted by the wave

$P = \dfrac{1}{2}m\ v \omega^2\ A^2$

$P = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00331\times 105.84\times 743^2\ 0.0022^2$

P = 0.438 W

If 90 grams of gold has a volume of 5 cm3, calculate the density (include the units and show your work or you get no credit

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The density of gold is of 18 grams per cm3.

Explanation:

The mass density of a homogeneous material expresses how much mass of that material is present in a given volume. Since the density of an object is obtained by dividing its mass by its volume, to obtain the density of gold, its 90 grams of mass must be divided by its 5 cm3 volume, performing the following calculation:

90/5 = X

18 = X

Thus, the density of gold is 18 grams per cm3.
