A crane lifts a 1,750 kg mass using a steel cable whose mass per unit length is 0.88 kg/m. What is the speed of transverse waves

on this cable?

Answer:

139.6m/s

Explanation:

Calculate the tension first, T=m*g

mass(m): 1750kg, gravity(g): 9.8m/s^2

T= 1750*9.8

 =17150N

Then calculate the wave speed using the equation v = √ (T/μ)

v= √(17150N)/(0.88kg/m)

 =139.6m/s

a surface recieving sound is moved from it original position to a position three times farther away from the source of the sound
Delicious77 [7]
Sound intensity = 1/(r^2)

That is Sound intensity is indirectly proportional to  the distance. Therefore, sound becomes 9 times less intense.

What are the two types of electrical circuits
uysha [10]

Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.



Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.

for any object suspended by any number of ropes, wires, or chains, how is the total amount of tension (tension in each rope adde
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

To calculate the tension on a rope holding 1 object, multiply the mass and gravitational acceleration of the object. If the object is experiencing any other acceleration, multiply that acceleration by the mass and add it to your first total.

Explanation:

The tension in a given strand of string or rope is a result of the forces pulling on the rope from either end. As a reminder, force = mass × acceleration. Assuming the rope is stretched tightly, any change in acceleration or mass in objects the rope is supporting will cause a change in tension in the rope. Don't forget the constant acceleration due to gravity - even if a system is at rest, its components are subject to this force. We can think of a tension in a given rope as T = (m × g) + (m × a), where "g" is the acceleration due to gravity of any objects the rope is supporting and "a" is any other acceleration on any objects the rope is supporting.[2]

For the purposes of most physics problems, we assume ideal strings - in other words, that our rope, cable, etc. is thin, massless, and can't be stretched or broken.

As an example, let's consider a system where a weight hangs from a wooden beam via a single rope (see picture). Neither the weight nor the rope are moving - the entire system is at rest. Because of this, we know that, for the weight to be held in equilibrium, the tension force must equal the force of gravity on the weight. In other words, Tension (Ft) = Force of gravity (Fg) = m × g.

Assuming a 10 kg weight, then, the tension force is 10 kg × 9.8 m/s2 = 98 Newtons.
