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.

A 100-lb child stands on a scale while riding in an elevator. What does the scale read while the elevator slows to stop at the l
Lelechka [254]

Answer: A 100-lb child stands on a scale while riding in an elevator. Then, the scale reading approaches to 100lb, while the elevator slows to stop at the lowest floor

Explanation: To find the correct answer, we need to know more about the apparent weight of a body in a lift.

<h3>What is the apparent weight of a body in a lift?</h3>
  • Consider a body of mass m kept on a weighing machine in a lift.
  • The readings on the machine is the force exerted by the body on the machine(action), which is equal to the force exerted by the machine on the body(reaction).
  • The reaction we get as the weight recorded by the machine, and it is called the apparent weight.
<h3>How to solve the question?</h3>
  • Here we have given with the actual weight of the body as 100lbs.
  • This 100lb child is standing on the scale or the weighing machine, when it is riding .
  • During this condition, the acceleration of the lift is towards downward, and thus, a force of ma .
  • There is also<em> mg </em>downwards and a normal reaction in the upward direction.
  • when we equate both the upward force and downward force, we get,

                             ma=mg-N\\N=mg-ma    i.e. during riding the scale reads a weight less than that of actual weight.

  • When the lift goes slow and stops the lowest floor, then the acceleration will be approaches to zero.

Thus, from the above explanation, it is clear that ,when the elevator moves to the lowest floor slowly and stops, then the apparent weight will become the actual weight.

What two kinds of crust are involved in a subduction zone
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Oceanic crust and continental crust

Explanation:

A subduction zone is normally between oceanic crust which is made of basalt and continental crust which is made of granite. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. So when oceanic crust collides with continental crusts, it subsducts underneath the continental crust since it is denser.

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is  T  = 168.44 \ K

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

   The rate of heat transferred is    P  = 13.1 \ W

     The surface area is  A = 1.55 \ m^2

      The emissivity of its surface is  e = 0.287

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

           H  =  A e \sigma  T^{4}

=>         T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }

where  \sigma is the Boltzmann constant with value  \sigma  = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot  m^{-2} \cdot  K^{-4}.

substituting value  

             T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }

            T  = 168.44 \ K
