A thin, 75.0 cm wire has a mass of 16.5 g. One end is tied to a nail, and the other is attached to a screw that can be adjusted

to vary the tension in the wire. (a) To what tension in Newtons must you adjust the screw to that a transverse wave of wavelength 3.33 cm makes 875 vibrations per second? (b) How fast would this wave travel?

Answer:

(a) 29.14 m/s

(b) 18.7 N

Explanation:

given information:

L = 75 cm = 0.75 m

mass, m = 16.5 g = 1.65 x 10⁻² kg

wavelength, λ = 3.33 cm = 0.0333 m

frequency, f = 875

first we calculate the speed

v = λf

  = 0.0333 x 875

  = 29.14 m/s

v = √F/μ

where

v = speed

F = tension

μ = linear density

μ = m/L, m is mass, and L is the length

thus,

v² = F/(m/L)

F = v²m/L

  = (29.14)²(1.65 x 10⁻² )/(0.75)

  = 18.7 N

Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat A pushes on the barge with a force of 3000n. Tugboat B pulls with a force of 5000 Newto
kenny6666 [7]

The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

  • The force of tugboat A, F_A = 3000 N, acting in a certain direction
  • The force of tugboat B, F_B = 5000 N, also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N

and the direction is the same as the direction of the two forces.

When sound is created it travels to the car through a
Rasek [7]

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave caused by vibrations and carried through a substance. The particles of the substance, such as air particles, vibrate back and forth along the path that the sound waves travel. Sound is transmitted through the vibrations and collisions of the particles.

This could maybe help you with your answer.

If the moon were twice as far from years as it is now the following would be true
zubka84 [21]
The question is incomplete.

The distance between the Moon and Earth influences: 1) the attractive gravitational force between them, 2) the tides, 3) the eclipses, 4) the period of each full turn of the moon around the Earth.

Assuming the question refers to the gravitational attraction, we must use the fact that, as per, Newton's Universal Gravitaional Law, the attractive force between the two bodies is inversely related to the square distance that separates them.

Then, if the Moon were twice as far, the gravitational pull would be one fourth (1/4) of actual pull.

If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, the ball will be?
disa [49]

The ball may attracted to the magnet.

<h3>How can we understand that the hanging ball will be attracted to the magnet or not?</h3>
  • From the question, we understand that the ball is attracted by the north pole of the bar magnet, then the bar magnet flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball.
  • As we know, in this type of experiments of bar magnet most of the times the ball is made out of steel.
  • Steel is a magnetic material.
  • Magnetic materials gets attracted  to the magnet at both the North and South pole.
  • This can be compared to how neutral objects also gets attracted to the positively and negatively charged rods through the Polarization force.

So, If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, The ball will be attracted to the magnet.
