A small steel wire of diameter 1.0 mm is connected to an oscillator and is under a tension of 7.5 N. The frequency of the oscill
avanturin [10]

Answer:

a

The output power is P= 0.764Watt

b

The Amplitude would decrease by \frac{1}{2}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The diameter of the steel wire is = 1.0mm= \frac{1}{1000}  = 1.0*10^{-3}m

    The raduis of this steel wire is r = \frac{1*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.5*10^{-3}m

Now from the question we can deduce that the power output is equal to the power being transmitted by wave on the wire  this is mathematically represented as

                   P = \frac{1}{2} \mu w^2 A^2 v ----(1)

Where \mu is the mass per unit length of the wire

   This is mathematically evaluated as

                      \mu = a* \rho

Where a is the area of the the wire = \pi r^2 = (3.142 * 0.5*10^{-3})^2 =7.855*10^{-7}m^2

         \rho is the density of steel with a generally value of 7850 kg/m^3

  So  

        \mu = 7.855*10^{-7} *7850

           = 6.162*10^{-3}kg/m

          w is velocity of the wave

   This is mathematically evaluated as    

                   w=2 \pi f

substituting  60Hz for f

  We have    

                   w = 2 *3.142 * 60

                      =377.04 \ rad/s

      A is the amplitude with a given value of 0.50 cm = \frac{0.50}{100} = 0.50 *10^{-2}m

          v  is the linear velocity of the wave

  This is mathematically evaluated as    

                  v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }

Where T is the tension with a given value of 7.5N

                v = \sqrt{\frac{7.5}{6.162*10^{-3}} }

                  =34.89 m/s

Substituting values into equation 1

       P = 6.162*10^{-3}* 377.04^2 * (0.5*10^{-2})^2 * 34.89

           P= 0.764Watt

Since the doubling of the frequency does not affect the amplitude and  from  equation one the output power  is  \ \frac{1}{2} of the Amplitude, Then the Amplitude would decrease by \frac{1}{2}

In-s [12.5K]

The correct option is (b) Sea breeze

During the day, susan notices that the wind is blowing onshore at the beach called sea breeze.

What is sea breeze?

  • Any wind that flows from a big body of water onto or onto a landmass is called a sea breeze or an onshore breeze.
  • Sea breezes form as a result of changes in air pressure brought on by the different heat capacities of water and dry land. Sea breezes are therefore more confined than prevailing winds.
  • A sea wind is frequently seen along coasts after sunrise because land warms up far more quickly than water does when exposed to solar radiation.
  • The sea wind front is significant because it can serve as a catalyst for afternoon thunderstorms and provide welcome cooling along the coast.
