Explanation:

The displacement of the string in the x direction is given by :

y(x,t)=A\ sin(kx-\omega t)

Where

A is the amplitude of wave

k is the propagation constant

1. Here, the phase of the wave is (kx-\omega t)

2. The propagation constant of a wave is given by :

k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi}{k}

3. Since, \omega=2\pi f

f=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}

Time period, T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}

4. Speed of this wave is given by :

v=f\times \lambda

v=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}\times \dfrac{2\pi}{k}

v=\dfrac{\omega}{k}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Place the left charge at the 2 cm position and the right one at the 4 cm position. Vary the left and right charge to the values
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges can be expressed as follows

F = k q₁ q₂ / d²

q₁ and q₂ are two charges , d is distance between them , k is a constant whose value is 9 x 10⁹

distance between charges is fixed which is 4 -2 = 2 cm = 2 x 10⁻² m

force between 1μC and  4μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 4 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 4μC and  1μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 4 x 1 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 2μC and  2μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 2 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 1μC and  2μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 2 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 4.5 x 10 = 45 N

force between 1μC and  8μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 8 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 18 x 10 = 180 N

force between 2μC and  8μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 8 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 36 x 10 = 360 N

Left Charge   Right Charge Resulting force(N)

1μC                     4μC                  90 N

4μC                   1μC                    90 N

2μC                  2μC                    90 N

1μC                    2μC                   45 N

1μC                  8μC                    180 N

2μC                  8μC                  360 N

What's the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 10 and velocity of 200m/s?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 20 \ Hz}}

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave can be found using the following formula.

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where <em>f</em> is the frequency, <em>v</em> is the velocity/wave speed, and λ is the wavelength.

The wavelength is 10 meters and the velocity is 200 meters per second.

  • 1 m/s can also be written as 1 m*s^-1

Therefore:

v= 200 \ m*s^{-1} \\\lambda = 10 \ m

Substitute the values into the formula.

f=\frac{200 \ m*s^{-1}}{10 \ m}

Divide and note that the meters (m) will cancel each other out.

f=\frac{200 \ s^{-1}}{10 \ }

f=20 \ s^{-1}

  • 1 s^-1 is equal to Hertz
  • Therefore, our answer of 20 s^-1 is equal to 20 Hz

f= 20 \ Hz

The frequency of the wave is <u>20 Hertz</u>
