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 mass is tied to a string and swung in a horizontal circle with a constant angular speed. show answer No Attempt If this speed
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The tension in the string is quadrupled i.e. increased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

The tension in the string is the centripetal force. This force is given by

F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

m is the mass, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

It follows that F \propto v^2, provided m and r are constant.

When v is doubled, the new force, F_1, is

F_1 = \dfrac{m(2v)^2}{r} = \dfrac{4mv^2}{r} = 4\dfrac{mv^2}{r} = 4F

Hence, the tension in the string is quadrupled.

WILL NAME THE BRAINLIEST! An airplane undergoes the following displacements: It first flies 72 km in a direction of 30° East of
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

82.1 km

Explanation:

We need to resolve each displacement along two perpendicular directions: the east-west direction (let's label it with x) and the north-south direction (y). Resolving each vector:

A_x = (72) sin 30^{\circ} =36.0 km\\A_y = (72) cos 30^{\circ} = 62.4 km

Vector B is 48 km south, so:

B_x = 0\\B_y = -48

Finally, vector C:

C_x = -(100) cos 30^{\circ} =-86.6 km\\C_y = (100) sin 30^{\circ} = 50.0 km

Now we add the components along each direction:

R_x = A_x + B_x + C_x = 36.0 + 0 +(-86.6)=-50.6 km\\R_y = A_y+B_y+C_y = 62.4+(-48)+50.0=64.6 km

So, the resultant (which is the distance in a straight line between the starting point and the final point of the motion) is

R=\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-50.6)^2+(64.6)^2}=82.1 km
