Answer:

39.2 N

Explanation:

1kg at the earth's surface has a force of 9.8 N acting on it.

(4 kg) (9.8N) = 39.2 N

A 2-m long string is stretched between two supports with a tension that produces a wave speed equal to vw=50.00m/s. What are the

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer

given,

Length of the string, L = 2 m

speed of the wave , v = 50 m/s

string is stretched between two string

For the waves the nodes must be between the strings

the wavelength is given by

$\lambda = \dfrac{2L}{n}$

where n is the number of antinodes; n = 1,2,3,...

the frequency expression is given by

$f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}$

now, wavelength calculation

n = 1

$\lambda_1 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{1}$

λ₁ = 4 m

n = 2

$\lambda_2 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{2}$

λ₂ = 2 m

n =3

$\lambda_3 = \dfrac{2\times 2}{3}$

λ₃ = 1.333 m

now, frequency calculation

n = 1

$f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}$

$f_1 =1\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}$

f₁ = 12.5 Hz

n = 2

$f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}$

$f_2 =2\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}$

f₂= 25 Hz

n = 3

$f = n\dfrac{v}{2L}$

$f_3 =3\times \dfrac{50}{2\times 2}$

f₃ = 37.5 Hz

Why does the frequency of water increase as the wavelength decreases?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Wave speed, frequency and wavelength in refraction

Explanation:

The diagram shows that as a wave travels into a denser medium, such as water, it slows down and the wavelength decreases. Although the wave slows down, its frequency remains the same, due to the fact that its wavelength is shorter. Hope this helps :>

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm

Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.

Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.
