Answer:

Tension, T = 547.58 N

Explanation:

It can be assumed that,

Mass of the string, m = 8.75 g

Length of the string, l = 70 cm = 0.7 m

Wavelength of produced sound, \lambda=0.767\ m

Speed of sound, v = 344 m/s

We know that second overtone is the third harmonic. The frequency in second overtone is given by :

f=\dfrac{v}{3\lambda}

f=\dfrac{344}{3\times 0.767}

f = 149.5 Hz

The frequency in terms of length is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/l}}

T=4f^2l^2\dfrac{m}{l}

T=4f^2lm

T=4\times (149.5)^2\times 0.7\times 8.75\times 10^{-3}

T = 547.58 N

So, the tension in the string is 547.58 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

Explanation:

A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization

The diffusion rate for a solute is 4.0 x 10^-11 kg/s in a solvent- filled channel that has a cross-sectional area of 0.50 cm^2 a
zlopas [31]

Answer:

s = 9.6\times 10^{-12}kg/s

Explanation:

Given:

Solute Diffusion rate  = 4.0 × 10⁻¹¹ kg/s

Area of cross-section = 0.50 cm²

Length of channel  =0.25 cm

Now for the new channel

Area of cross-section = 0.30 cm²

Length of channel  =0.10 cm

let the Solute Diffusion rate  of new channel = s

now equating the diffusion rate per unit volume for both the channels

\frac{4\times 10^{-11}}{0.50\times 0.25}=\frac{s}{0.30\times 0.10}

thus,

s = 9.6\times 10^{-12}kg/s

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: the effective design stiffness required to limit the bumper maximum deflection during impact to 4 cm is 3906250 N/m

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of vehicle m = 1000 kg

for a low speed test; V = 2.5 m/s

bumper maximum deflection = 4 cm = 0.04 m

First we determine the energy of the vehicle just prior to impact;

W_v = 1/2mv²

we substitute

W_v = 1/2 × 1000 × (2.5)²

W_v = 3125 J

now, the the effective design stiffness k will be:

at the impact point, energy of the vehicle converts to elastic potential energy of the bumper;

hence;

W_v = 1/2kx²

we substitute

3125 = 1/2 × k (0.04)²

3125 = 0.0008k

k = 3125 / 0.0008

k = 3906250 N/m

Therefore, the effective design stiffness required to limit the bumper maximum deflection during impact to 4 cm is 3906250 N/m
