A long string is pulled so that the tension in it increases by a factor of four. If the change in length is negligible, by what
rusak2 [61]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wave velocity as a function of the tension and linear mass density. This is

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here

v = Wave speed

T = Tension

\mu = Linear mass density

From this proportion we can realize that the speed of the wave is directly proportional to the square of the tension

v \propto \sqrt{T}

Therefore, if there is an increase in tension of 4, the velocity will increase the square root of that proportion

v \propto \sqrt{4} = 2  

The factor that the wave speed change is 2.

For a maximum superelevation of 0.08 ft/ft and a degree of curve of 4o, calculate the maximum safe speed for the curve assuming
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Superelation= 0.08ft/ft

Given curve= u•

Curve junction factor= 0.13

DR= 5729.57795

R = 5729.57795/D

R = 5729.57795/4

R = 1432.4ft

c + f = V^2/gG

0.08 + 0.13 = V^2 / (32*1432.4)

V^2 = 9625.728 or V = 98 ft/sec

The designed speed for a project considered is a minimum value which means the highway design elements will meet or exceed the standards for the design speed. The maximum safe speed under normal condition is significantly greater than design speed

A sample of metallic frewium weighs 185N on a spring scale in air. When immersed in pure water, the frewium pulls on the scale w
balu736 [363]

Wow !  This one could have some twists and turns in it.
Fasten your seat belt.  It's going to be a boompy ride.

-- The buoyant force is precisely the missing <em>30N</em> .

--  In order to calculate the density of the frewium sample, we need to know
its mass and its volume.  Then, density = mass/volume .

-- From the weight of the sample in air, we can closely calculate its mass.

   Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
   185N = (mass) x (9.81 m/s²)
   Mass = (185N) / (9.81 m/s²) = <u>18.858 kilograms of frewium</u> 

-- For its volume, we need to calculate the volume of the displaced water.

The buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced water, and the
density of water is about 1 gram per cm³.  So the volume of the
displaced water (in cm³) is the same as the number of grams in it.

The weight of the displaced water is 30N, and weight = (mass) (gravity).

           30N = (mass of the displaced water) x (9.81 m/s²)

           Mass = (30N) / (9.81 m/s²) = 3.058 kilograms

           Volume of displaced water = <u>3,058 cm³</u>

Finally, density of the frewium sample = (mass)/(volume)

      Density = (18,858 grams) / (3,058 cm³) = <em>6.167 gm/cm³</em> (rounded)

================================================

I'm thinking that this must  be the hard way to do it,
because I noticed that

       (weight in air) / (buoyant force) =  185N / 30N = <u>6.1666...</u>

So apparently . . .

        (density of a sample) / (density of water) =

                                  (weight of the sample in air) / (buoyant force in water) .

I never knew that, but it's a good factoid to keep in my tool-box.

Two service technicians are discussing the best way to thread a rod. Technician A says they should use a tap and die set. Techni
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Both technicians are right, to be able to make a threaded joint you need to use the external thread on one part of the rod using the tap and die set, and on the other side of the rod you need to have an internal thread using the thread repair insert kit

A radioactive material has a count rate of 400 per minute. It has a half life of 40 years. How long will it take to decay to a r
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

160 years.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial count rate (Cᵢ) = 400 count/min

Half-life (t½) = 40 years

Final count rate (Cբ) = 25 count/min

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall determine the number of half-lives that has elapse. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial count rate (Cᵢ) = 400 count/min

Final count rate (Cբ) = 25 count/min

Number of half-lives (n) =?

Cբ = 1/2ⁿ × Cᵢ

25 = 1/2ⁿ × 400

Cross multiply

25 × 2ⁿ = 400

Divide both side by 25

2ⁿ = 400/25

2ⁿ = 16

Express 16 in index form with 2 as the base

2ⁿ = 2⁴

n = 4

Thus, 4 half-lives has elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the time taken for the radioactive material to decay to the rate of 25 counts per minute. This can be obtained as follow:

Half-life (t½) = 40 years

Number of half-lives (n) = 4

Time (t) =?

n = t / t½

4 = t / 40

Cross multiply

t = 4 × 40

t = 160 years.

Thus, it will take 160 years for the radioactive material to decay to the rate of 25 counts per minute.
