The speed of the wave in the string is 83.4 m/s

Explanation:

For a standing wave in a string, the speed of the wave is given by the equation:

v=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{m/L}}

where

L is the length of the string

T is the tension in the string

m is the mass of the string

In this problem, we have:

L = 0.72 m

m = 4.2 g = 0.0042 kg

T = 84.1 N

Solving the equation, we find the speed of the wave:

v=\frac{1}{2(0.72)}\sqrt{\frac{84.1}{0.0042/0.72}}=83.4 m/s

At which angle must a laser beam enter the water for no refraction to occur?
abruzzese [7]

Light that enters the new medium <em>perpendicular to the surface</em> keeps sailing straight through the new medium unrefracted (in the same direction).

Perpendicular to the surface is the "normal" to the surface. So the angle of incidence (angle between the laser and the normal) is zero, and the law of refraction (just like the law of reflection) predicts an angle of zero between the normal and the refracted (or the reflected) beam.

Moral of the story:  If you want your laser to keep going in the same direction after it enters the water, or to bounce back in the same direction it came from when it hits the mirror, then shoot it <em>straight on</em> to the surface, perpendicular to it.

The maximum pressure most organisms can survive is about 1000 times the atmospheric pressure. Only small, simple organisms such
Schach [20]

Answer:

h = 10000 m

Explanation:

The pressure applied at a depth of the liquid is given by:

P =ρgh

where,

P = Maximum Pressure to Survive = (1000)(Atmospheric Pressure)

P = (1000)(101325 Pa) = 1.01 x 10⁸ Pa

ρ = Density of sea water = 1025 kg/m³

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = maximum depth to survive = ?

Therefore,

1.01 x 10⁸ Pa = (1025 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)h

h = (1.01 x 10⁸ Pa)/(1025 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>h = 10000 m</u>

You just calibrated a constant volume gas thermometer. The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 294.0 kPa when the ther
Travka [436]

Answer: 361° C

Explanation:

Given

Initial pressure of the gas, P1 = 294 kPa

Final pressure of the gas, P2 = 500 kPa

Initial temperature of the gas, T1 = 100° C = 100 + 273 K = 373 K

Final temperature of the gas, T2 = ?

Let us assume that the gas is an ideal gas, then we use the equation below to solve

T2/T1 = P2/P1

T2 = T1 * (P2/P1)

T2 = (100 + 273) * (500 / 294)

T2 = 373 * (500 / 294)

T2 = 373 * 1.7

T2 = 634 K

T2 = 634 K - 273 K = 361° C
