A steel piano wire is 0.7 m long and has a mass of 5 g. It is stretched with a tension of 500 N. What is the speed of transverse

waves on the wire? To reduce the wave speed by a factor of 2 without changing the tension, what mass of copper wire would have to be wrapped around the wire?

Answer:

a.264.6m/s

b.4995g

Explanation:

Data given,

Tension T=500N,

length of wire=0.7m,

mass,m=5g=0.005kg

a.To determine the speed of the transverse wave, we use the equation below

V=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m} } \\F=tension, L=length, m=mass\\

if we insert values as given in the question , we arrive at

V=\sqrt{\frac{500*0.7}{0.005}}\\ V=264.6m/s

b. To reduce he wave speed by a factor of 2, the new wave speed will become 132.3m/s.

From the equation, if mass,m becomes subject of formula, we have

m=\frac{V^{2}}{FL}\\ m=\frac{132.3^{2}}{500*0.7}\\m=50kg\\m=5000g

Hence to reduce the speed by a factor of 2, (5000-5)g=4995g mass of copper wire would have to be wrapped around the wire.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

(D) 3

Explanation:

The angular momentum is given by:

\vec{L}=\vec{r}\ X \ \vec{p}

Thus, the magnitude of the angular momenta of both solar systems are given by:

L_1=Rm_1v_1=Rm_1(\omega R)=R^2m_1(\frac{2\pi}{T_1})=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{T_1}\\\\L_2=Rm_2v_2=2\pi R^2\frac{m_2}{T_2}

where we have taken that both systems has the same radius.

By taking into account that T1=3T2, we have

L_1=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{3T_2}=\frac{1}{3}2\pi R^2\frac{1}{T_2}m_1=\frac{1}{3}\frac{L_2}{m_2}m_1

but L1=L2=L:

L=\frac{1}{3}L\frac{m_1}{m_2}\\\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=3

Hence, the answer is (D) 3
