A string has an abrupt change in linear density at its midpoint so that the speed of a pulse on the left side is 2/3 of that on

the right side.
a. On which side is the linear density greater? Explain.
b. From which side would you start a pulse so that its reflection from the midpoint would not be inverted? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Linear density is greater on the left side because the velocity of wave in a string is inversely proportional to the linear mass density of the string

b) We should start pulse from the left hand side so the reflected wave does not get inverted because the wave traveling from the denser to lighter medium gets reflected in the same phase.

Suppose a certain car supplies a constant deceleration of A meter per second per second. If it is traveling at 90km/hr. When. th
aksik [14]

Answer:

i)-6.25m/s

ii)18 metres

iii)26.5 m/s or 95.4 km/hr

Explanation:

Firstly convert 90km/hr to m/s

90 × 1000/3600 = 25m/s

(i) Apply v^2 = u^2 + 2As...where v(0m/s) is the final speed and u(25m/s) is initial speed and also s is the distance moved through(50 metres)

0 = (25)^2 + 2A(50)

0 = 625 + 100A....then moved the other value to one

-625 = 100A

Hence A = -6.25m/s^2(where the negative just tells us that its deceleration)

(ii) Firstly convert 54km/hr to m/s

In which this is 54 × 1000/3600 = 15m/s

then apply the same formula as that in (i)

0 = (15)^2 + 2(-6.25)s

-225 = -12.5s

Hence the stopping distance = 18metres

(iii) Apply the same formula and always remember that the deceleration values is the same throughout this question

0 = u^2 + 2(-6.25)(56)

u^2 = 700

Hence the speed that the car was travelling at is the,square root of 700 = 26.5m/s

In km/hr....26.5 × 3600/1000 = 95.4 km/hr

A table tennis ball has a mass of about 2.45 g. Suppose the ball is hit across the table with a speed of 4.0 m/s. What is it’s k
cluponka [151]

Answer:

0.0196 j

Explanation:

i) The formula for kinetic energy is as follows: 0.5*m*v^2

ii) Since we have all the values all that's left is to plug them into the equation

iii) First, WE MUST, Convert grams into kgs as this is the SI unit of mass so 2.45/1000

iv) All that's left now is to plug it into the equation so:

0.5* (s.45/1000)*(4^2)

v) Lastly we add the unit joules at the end as we're talking about energy

Hope this was useful! :)

A painter stands a horizontal platform which has a mass of 20kg and is 5m long, the platform is suspended by two vertical ropes
Lerok [7]

Answer:

R = 715.4 N

L =  166.6 N

Explanation:

ASSUME the painter is standing right of center

Let L be the left rope tension

Let R be the right rope tension

Sum moments about the left end to zero. Assume CCW moment is positive

R[5] - 20(9.8)[5/2] - 70(9.8)[5/2 + 2] = 0

R = 715.4 N

Sum moments about the right end to zero

20(9.8)[5/2] + 70(9.8)[5/2 - 2] - L[5] = 0

L =  166.6 N

We can verify by summing vertical forces

116.6 + 715.4 - (70 + 20)(9.8) ?=? 0

                                             0 = 0  checks

If the assumption about which side of center the paint stood is incorrect, the only difference would be the values of L and R would be swapped.

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 km in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 11,070 km in 9 hou
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

speed of plane in still air = 1060 km/h

speed of wind = 170 km/h

Explanation:

Let teh speed of plane in still air is vp and the speed of air is va.

Irt travels 2670 km in 3 hours against the wind

So,

vp - va = 2670 / 3 = 890 km/h ..... (1)

It travels 11070 km in 9 hours along the wind.

vp + va = 11070 / 9 = 1230 km/h .... (2)

Adding both the equations

2 vp = 2120

vp = 1060 km/h

and va = 1230 - vp = 1230 - 1060 = 170 km/h
