Answer:

T=9.4 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of wire,m=16.5 g=\frac{16.5}{1000}kg

1 kg=1000g

Length of wire,l=75 cm=75\times 10^{-2}m

1 m=100 cm

Wavelength of transverse wave=\lambda=3.33 cm=3.33\times 10^{-2}m

Frequency=621 Hz

Mass per unit length=m_l=\frac{m}{l}=\frac{16.5}{1000\times 75\times 10^{-2}}=0.022 kg/m

\nu=\frac{v}{\lambda}

v=\nu \lambda

Where\nu=frequency of wave

\lambda=Wavelength of wave

Speed of wave=v

Using the formula

v=3.33\times 10^{-2}\times 621=20.7m/s

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

v^2=\frac{T}{m_l}

T=v^2m_l

Using the formula

T=(20.7)^2\times 0.022=9.4N

Hence, the tension,T=9.4 N

How does the scientific meaning of the words work, energy, force and efficiency compare to their every day meaning? State the si
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Force

If you're taking classical physics, simply stated, a force is a push or a pull of some sort. But there is one other very important thing to understand about Force. A true Force is always an interaction (at least from a classical perspective). That means that forces always come in pairs. This is stated in Newton's Third Law (equal and opposite forces). Every action must have a reaction. This is required for all true forces. Another consequence of this is that force is a vector, meaning it has a magnitude and a direction. The action and reaction will always be opposite in direction.

A lot of people will say F=ma. This is true. However, it is important to keep in mind that this definition is a calculational tool. It is more precise to say the Sum of all forces=ma. The point is that ma is not a force. Forces are things like weight, tension, normal, friction, gravity, electrostatic, magnetic, and various other applied forces. The sum of forces on an object equals the product of its mass times its acceleration.

It is important to keep in mind that the force is on the object that accelerates. Another way to state this is that objects cannot accelerate themselves. You cannot push yourself back (or forwards). But if you push a heavy object like a desk forwards, then the desk can push you back.

Energy

There are many kinds of energy. There are two important things to know.

Energy is the ability to do work. It doesn't mean work is being done, but that work can be done. (So you can see there is an intimate relationship between work and energy).

Energy is conserved. That means the total amount of energy is always constant. If the energy is a system changes somehow, that means some work was done in order to move the energy from one system to another.

Energy is also a scalar (given that Work is a scalar).

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

minimum mass of the neutron star = 1.624 × 10^30 kg

Explanation:

For  a material to remain on the surface of a rapidly rotating neuron star, the magnitude oĺf the gravitational acceleration on the material must be equal to the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the rotating neuron star.

This can be represented by the explanations in the attached document.

minimum mass of the neutron star = 1.624 × 10^30 kg

A pickup truck has a width of 79.0 in. If it is traveling north at 42 m/s through a magnetic field with vertical component of
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the induced Emf is 0.003371V

Explanation:

The width of the truck is given as 79inch but we need to convert to meter for consistency, then

The width= 79inch × 0.0254=2.0066 metres.

Now we can calculate the induced Emf using expresion below;

Then the induced EMF= B L v

Where B= magnetic field component

L= width

V= velocity

=(40*10^-6) × (42) × (2.0066)

=0.003371V

Therefore, the magnitude emf that is induced between the driver and passenger sides of the truck is 0.003371V

You are working in a shoe test laboratory measuring the coefficients of friction for running shoes on a variety of surfaces. The
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75
