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.

Which two vectors, when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other), will have the largest magnitude?
FromTheMoon [43]

Given: Please see the attached image below.

 

To be able to subtract vectors, we can either use the parallelogram method or the triangle method. Take note that the only difference is that alternatively adding vectors A and B, we will instead be adding A and – B. When we ponder of vector subtraction, we must anticipate about it in terms of adding a negative vector. A negative vector has the same magnitude as the original vector, however, it has an opposite direction.

 

So in this problem, the two vectors that will have the largest magnitude are A & F when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other).

Two concrete spans of a 380 m long bridge are
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

4.163 m

Explanation:

Since the length of the bridge is

L = 380 m

And the bridge consists of 2 spans, the initial length of each span is

L_i = \frac{L}{2}=\frac{380}{2}=190 m

Due to the increase in temperature, the length of each span increases according to:

L_f = L_i(1+ \alpha \Delta T)

where

L_i = 190 m is the initial length of one span

\alpha =1.2\cdot 10^{-5} ^{\circ}C^{-1} is the temperature coefficient of thermal expansion

\Delta T=20^{\circ}C is the increase in temperature

Substituting,

L_f=(190)(1+(1.2\cdot 10^{-5})(20))=190.0456 m

By using Pythagorean's theorem, we can find by how much the height of each span rises due to this thermal expansion (in fact, the new length corresponds to the hypothenuse of a right triangle, in which the base is the original length of the spand, and the rise in heigth is the other side); so we find:

h=\sqrt{L_f^2-L_i^2}=\sqrt{(190.0456)^2-(190)^2}=4.163 m

Assume a reaction takes 7.5 moles of anhydrous calcium chloride and energy transfer occurs, which we record as 21.2 joules of en
OLga [1]

Answer: 2.83 J/mol

Explanation:

Heat of solution, sometimes interchangeably called enthalpy of solution, is said to be the energy released or absorbed when the solute dissolves in the solvent. A solute is that which can dissolve in a solvent, to form a solution

Given

No of moles of CaCl = 7.5 mol

Total energy used = 21.2 J

Heat of solution = q/n where

q = total energy

n = number of moles

Heat of solution = 21.2 / 7.5

Heat of solution = 2.83 J/mol

Do solar panels create enough energy to power the car throughout the day?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Yes, but only if it's sunny.

Explanation:

As you know, solar panels generate energy through the sun's rays of light (better known as sunlight). Therefore, as long as the sun is shining high in the sky, the car will generate electricity and be able to function. If this vehicle was only powered by solar panels, it would not function during the night, in cloudy areas, and/or in dark places (such as parking garages or home garages).

Hope this helps!
