Answer:

1. t = 0.0819s

2. W = 0.25N

3. n = 36

4. y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]

Explanation:

1) The given equation is

y(x, t) = Acos(kx -wt)

The relationship between velocity and propagation constant is

v = \frac{\omega}{k}=\frac{2730rad/sec}{172rad/m}\\\\

v = 15.87m/s

Time taken, t = \frac{\lambda}{v}

= \frac{1.3}{15.87}\\\\=0.0819 sec

t = 0.0819s

2)

The velocity of transverse wave is given by

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

v = \sqrt{\frac{W}{\frac{m}{\lambda}}}

mass of string is calculated thus

mg = 0.0125N

m = \frac{0.0125N}{9.8N/s}

m = 0.00128kg

\omega = \frac{v^2m}{\lambda}

\omega = \frac{(15.87^2)(0.00128)}{1.30}

\omega = 0.25N

3)

The propagation constant k is

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}

hence

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{k}\\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 3.142}{172}

\lambda = 0.036 m

No of wavelengths, n is

n = \frac{L}{\lambda}\\\\n = \frac{1.30m}{0.036m}\\

n = 36

4)

The equation of wave travelling down the string is

y(x, t)=Acos[kx -wt]\\\\becomes\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[(172 rad.m)x + (2730 rad.s)t]

without, unit\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]

A turntable is designed to acquire an angular velocity of 32.4 rev/s in 0.5 s, starting from rest.
horrorfan [7]
Well, the acceleration is the difference of speeds divided by the time period. \frac{32.4}{0.5}=64.8rev/s^2.
One rev/s is 2\pi rad/s^2, so our final result is 64.8*2\pi=407.15rad/s^2.

If the mass of the products measured 120 g, what would be the mass of the reactants? 30 g 60 g 120 g 240 g
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The correct answer option is C

Explanation:

In a balanced chemical reaction mass of the reactant are always equal to mass of the products. Also known as Law of Conservation of Mass  which states that " mass can nor be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction."

So, the mass of the reactant will be equal to the mass of products.That is 120 grams.

Hence, the correct answer option(C).

Does earths Roation causes gravity?​
gogolik [260]

Answer:

he gravity of Earth, denoted by g, is the net acceleration that is imparted to objects due to the combined effect of gravitation (from mass distribution within Earth) and the centrifugal force (from the Earth's rotation )

En la figura los émbolos son de masa despreciable y están en reposo, como se ve en la figura, siendo M=300 kg. Determine: a) la
Leni [432]

The image mentioned is in the attachment

Answer: a) P = 2450 Pa;

b) P = 2940 Pa;

c) F = 4.9 N

Explanation:

a) Pressure is a force applied to a surface of an object or fluid per unit area.

The image shows a block applying pressure on the large side of the piston. The force applied is due to gravitation, so:

P = \frac{F}{A}

P = \frac{m.g}{A}

P = \frac{300.9.8}{1.2}

P = 2450 Pa

The pressure generated by the block is P = 2450 Pa.

b) A static liquid can also exert pressure and can be calculated as:

P_{staticfluid} =ρ.g.h

where

ρ is the density of the fluid

h is the depth of the fluid

g is acceleration of gravity

P_{staticfluid} = 600.9.8.0.5

P_{staticfluid} = 2940 Pa

The pressure in the fluid at 50 cm deep is P_{staticfluid} = 2940 Pa.

c) For the system to be in equilibrium both pressures, pressure on the left side and pressure on the right side, have to be the same:

P_{s} = P_{b}

\frac{F}{A_s} = \frac{F_b}{A_b}

F = \frac{F_b}{A_b}.A_s

Adjusting the units, A_{s} = 0.002 m².

F = \frac{300.9.8.0.002}{1.2}

F = 4.9 N

The force necessary to be equilibrium is F = 4.9 N.

Which of the following statements are correct? 1. Electrons and protons have identical masses but opposite charges. 2. Most of a
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

b 2 only

Explanation:

The mass of an electron is 9.10938356 × 10⁻³¹ kilograms while the mass of a proton is 1.6726219 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms. It can be seen that a proton is heavier than an electron.

Atoms do not always have the same number of neutrons and protons. For, example ¹³C has 6 protons and 7 neutrons.

Atoms do have most of the mass concentrated at the center called the nucleus. The nucleus has protons and neutrons. As protons have positive charge and neutrons have no charge the nucleus has a positive charge.
