A transverse wave is set up in a very long string. The oscillator is set at 20.0 Hz, and the wave speed is 78 m/s. The amplitude

of the wave is 5.2 cm. What is the maximum particle acceleration for a point on the string?

To solve this problem we must apply the concepts related to Tangential Acceleration based on angular velocity and acceleration, and therefore, we must also calculate angular velocity based on the given frequency. For all these problems we will take the Units to the International System. The maximum acceleration would then be defined as,

a_{max} = \omega^2 A

Here,

\omega= Angular velocity

A = Amplitude

At the same time the angular velocity is described as,

\omega = 2\pi f

Here f means the frequency of the wave. Substituting,

\omega = 2 \pi (20)

\omega = 40\pi

A = 5.2cm

A = 0.052m

Replacing at the first equation,

a_{max} = (40\pi )^2 (0.052)

a_{max} = 821.15m/s^2

Therefore the maximum particle acceleration for a point on the string is 821.15m/s^2

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

A kid on a playground swing makes a complete to-and-fro swing each 2 seconds.
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The frequency of the swing: 1/2 Hertz

The period is: 2 Seconds

Explanation:

The time the kid takes to make a complete to-and-fro swing = 2 seconds

The period, T, is the time it takes to make one complete cycle of an oscillatory motion, therefore, we have;

The frequency, f, is the number of cycles completed each second, therefore, we have;

The time for 1 cycle = 2 seconds

2 seconds = 1 cycle

Dividing both sides by 2 gives;

2/2 seconds = 1/2 cycles

2/2 = 1

In 2/2 = 1 seconds The number of cycles completed = 1/2 cycles

Therefore, the number of cycles completed per (one) second = 1/2 cycles

Therefore the frequency of the swing, f = 1/2 cycle/seconds = 1/2 Hertz

The period, T, is the time it takes to complete one to-and-fro swing which is one cycle which is 2 seconds

Therefore, the period is 2 Seconds.

katovenus [111]

Answer: ​Wernicke's aphasia

Explanation:

John recently suffered a blow to his head. Since then, he finds it difficult to comprehend what others say to him. He also finds it difficult to express his thoughts and cannot seem to find the right words to say while speaking. However, he can speak freely with proper syntax. In this scenario, John is most likely suffering from Wernicke's aphasia.

Wernicke's aphasia occurs when the leftward side of the middle of the brain is damaged or has been altered. An individual who suffers from Wernicke's aphasia will have difficulty in speaking in meaningful and coherent sentences or may have difficulty in understanding the speech of others.
