Answer:

It becomes wider

Explanation:

Because The bigger the object the wave interacts with, the more spread there is in the interference pattern. Decreasing the size of the opening increases the spread in the pattern.

Fellow student of mathematical bent tells you that the wave function of a traveling wave on a thin rope is y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[(
bezimeni [28]

Answer

given,

y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[( 7.02 rad/m )x+( 743 rad/s )t]

length of the rope = 1.33 m

mass of the rope = 3.31 g

comparing the given equation from the general wave equation

y(x,t)= A cos[k x+ω t]

A is amplitude

now on comparing

a) Amplitude  = 2.20 mm

b) frequency =

     f = \dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}

     f = \dfrac{743}{2\pi}

          f = 118.25 Hz

c) wavelength

        k= \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

        \lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{k}

        \lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{7.02}

        \lambda= 0.895\ m

d) speed

         v = \dfrac{\omega}{k}

         v = \dfrac{743}{7.02}

                v = 105.84 m/s

e) direction of the motion will be in negative x-direction

f) tension

  T = \dfrac{v^2\ m}{L}

  T = \dfrac{(105.84)^2\times 3.31 \times 10^{-3}}{1.33}

      T = 27.87 N

g) Power transmitted by the wave

  P = \dfrac{1}{2}m\ v \omega^2\ A^2

  P = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00331\times 105.84\times 743^2\ 0.0022^2

      P = 0.438 W

Which scenario would be classified as a conceptual model
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Heyo! (Ish Mash Potato) XD

Explanation:

A conceptual model is a representation of a system, made of the composition of concepts which are used to help people know, understand, or simulate a subject the model represents. It is also a set of concepts. Some models are physical objects; for example, a toy model which may be assembled, and may be made to work like the object it represents.

Hope Mr. Mash Potato Helped!!!

A person stands on a scale in an elevator. As the elevator starts, the scale has a constant reading of 592 N. As the elevator la
gladu [14]

Answer:

<h2>a) 496N</h2><h2>b) 50.56kg</h2><h2>c) 1.90m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

According to newton's secomd law, ∑F = ma

∑F is the summation of the force acting on the body

m is the mass of the body

a is the acceleration

Given the normal force when the elevator starts N1 = 592N

Normal force after the elevator stopped N2 = 400N

When the elevator starts, its moves upward, the sum of force ∑F = Normal (N)force on the elevator - weight of the person( Fg)

When moving up;

N1 - Fg = ma

N1 = ma + Fg ...(1)

Stopping motion of the elevator occurs after the elevator has accelerates down. The sum of forces in this case will give;

N2 - Fg = -ma

N2 = -ma+Fg ...(2)

Adding equation 1 and 2 we will have;

N1+N2 = 2Fg

592N + 400N = 2Fg

992N 2Fg

Fg = 992/2

Fg = 496N

The weight of the person is 496N

<em>\b) To get the person mass, we will use the relationship Fg = mg</em>

g = 9.81m/s

496 = 9.81m

mass m = 496/9.81

mass = 50.56kg

c) To get the magnitude of acceleration of the elevator, we will subtract equation 1 from 2 to have;

N1-N2 = 2ma

592-400 = 2(50.56)a

192 = 101.12a

a = 192/101.12

a = 1.90m/s²
