What measures the amount of displacement in a transverse wave

1 answer:

MAVERICK [17]3 years ago

Unlike a longitudinal wave, a transverse wave moves about, perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The particles in a transverse wave do not travel along the direction of propagation, but only oscillate up and down on its equilibrium position. With this, the displacement can be determined by measuring (in the case of electronic waves, using an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer) and setting the desired units to measure the wave in.

a vertical solid steel post 29cm in diameter and 2.0m long is required to support a load of 8200kg, ignore the weight of the pos

erik [133]

Answer:

The stress is $\sigma = 1.218*10^{6} \ N/m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter of the post is $d = 29 \ cm = 0.29 \ m$

The length is $L = 2.0 \ m$

The weight of the loading mass

Generally the radius of the post is mathematically represented as

$r = \frac{0.29}{2}$

=> $r = 0.145 \ m$

Generally the area of the post is

$A = \pi r^2$

=> $A = 3.14 * 0.145 ^2$

=> $A = 0.066 \ m^2$

Generally the weight exerted by the load is mathematically represented as

$F = m * g$

=> $F = 8200 * 9.8$

=> $F = 80360 \ N$

Generally the stress is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \frac{F}{A}$

=> $\sigma = \frac{80360 }{0.066}$

=> $\sigma = 1.218*10^{6} \ N/m^2$
