Answer:

The speed will increase.

Explanation:

Wave velocity in a rope can be discribed as :

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho} }$ ,

where $v$ is the velocity, $T$ is the tension and, $\rho$ is the linear density of mass (this is mass over rope length).

As it can be seen from the formula, velocity is directly proportional to the tension, this means that if tension increase so it will the velocity.

Answer:

The first egg is thrown at a wall and breaks because it has no time to decelerate and it breaks.

While, when a second egg is thrown at wall with same velocity and collides with a bed sheet, it does not break because it get more time to decelerate or collide with the wall. It reduces the amount of force exerted on the egg and it does not break.

At a distance D from a very long (essentially infinite) uniform line of charge, the electric field strength is 1000 N/C. At what

Alla [95]

Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Explanation:

We know that, the E is inversely proportional to the distance as follows :

$E=\dfrac{k}{d^2}$

We can write it as follows :

$\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d_1})^2$

Put all the values,

$\dfrac{1000}{2000}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d})^2\\\\\sqrt{\dfrac{1000}{2000}}=(\dfrac{d_2}{D})\\\\0.7071=\dfrac{d_2}{d}\\\\d_1=0.7071D\\\\d_1=\dfrac{D}{\sqrt2}$

So, the correct option is (a).
