Consider a standing wave in a one dimensional ideal medium of length "D" (like a vibrating string).
stira [4]

Answer:

a) 20 nodes    b) zero nodes

Explanation:

When we have standing waves in a bend we have nodes at the ends and the equation describes the number of possible waves in the string is

         L = n λ/2

Where λ is the wavelength, L is the length of the string, in our case it would be D and n is an entered. We can strip the wavelength of this expression

       

       λ = 2L / n

Let's calculate what value of n we have for a wavelength equal to D/10

       λ = 2D / n

       λ = D / 10

We match and calculate

       2D / n = D / 10

       2 / n = 1/10

       n = 20

Perform them for  λ = D / 20

       λ = 2D / n

       2D / n = D / 20

       n = 2 20 = 40

Since n is an inter there should be a wavelength for each value of n in the bone period there should be 20 different wavelengths

B) for La = 10D

       2D / n = 10D

       1 / n = 5

       n = 1/5 = 0.2

 

La = 20D

       2D / n = 20D

       1 / n = 10

      n = 1/10 = 0.1

These numbers are not entered so there can be no wave in this period

The aluminum wire in a high-voltage transmission line is 2.7 cm in diameter. It is designed to carry a current of 1100 A. What i
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

1660 V

Explanation:

Resistance should be determined and then voltage drop across the power line can be determined.

R = ρ L /A  

Here ρ = Resistivity of aluminum = 2.7\times 10^{-8}\Omega m

L = length = 32 km = 32,000 m

Area of cross section = A = π r² = π (0.027/2)² = 0.00057255 m²

Resistance = R =

(2.7\times 10^{-8}\Omega m (32,000)/(0.00057255) = 1.5090 Ohms.

Voltage drop = V = I R = (1100)(1.5090) = 1659.9 V.

(If resistivity value is different, then the resistance will be different and hence final answer for voltage will also vary ).
