Answer: 996m/s
Explanation:
Formula for calculating velocity of wave in a stretched string is
V = √T/M where;
V is the velocity of wave
T is tension
M is the mass per unit length of the wire(m/L)
Since the second wire is twice as far apart as the first, it will be L2 = 2L1
Let V1 and V2 be the speed of the shorter and longer wire respectively
V1 = √T/M1... 1
V2 = √T/M2... 2
Since V1 = 249m/s, M1 = m/L1 M2 = m/L2 = m/2L1
The equations will now become
249 = √T/(m/L1) ... 3
V2 = √T/(m/2L1)... 4
From 3,
249² = TL1/m...5
From 4,
V2²= 2TL1/m... 6
Dividing equation 5 by 6 we have;
249²/V2² = TL1/m×m/2TL1
{249/V2}² = 1/2
249/V2 = (1/2)²
249/V2 = 1/4
V2 = 249×4
V2 = 996m/s
Therefore the speed of the wave on the longer wire is 996m/s
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Hooke's law! F(spring)=-kx
There's no tricky square law here. The spring constant doesn't change, only x (distance stretched) changes. Therefore, if distance is halved, Force will be halved.
Answer:
a North and South Pole :)
Explanation:
A) Dinosaur fossils because they were proven that there was life before us. we also found out that our old skulls had dinosaur teeth in the heads. that showed us that we were on the food chain. but now we aren't because we now have protected cities.
