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:

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

A frame hanging on a wall is held by two cables. The tension in each cable is 30 N, and the cables make an angle of 45° with the

Dimas [21]

Answer: option D) 42.4 N

The weight of the frame is balanced by the vertical component of tension.

W = T sin θ + T sin θ = 2 T sin θ

The tension in each cable is T = 30 N

Angle made by the cables with the horizontal, θ = 45°

⇒ W = 2×30 N × sin 45° = 2 × 30 N × 0.707 = 42.4 N

Hence, the weight of the frame is 42.4 N. Correct option is D.

What other structures is it near hypothalamus?

Colt1911 [192]

The other structures near the hypothalamus are thalamus and the pituitary gland.
Hypothalamus is located below the thalamus and is part of the limbic system. It is an integral part of the brain, it is a small cone-shaped structure that projects down ward from the brain, ending in the pituitary stalk, a tubular connection to the pituitary gland.

A car with mass m traveling at speed v has kinetic energy k. what is the kinetic energy of a second car that has the same mass m

vampirchik [111]

Kinetic energy, KE, is modeled by the formula $KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where m is the mass in kg and v is the velocity in m/s.

In this scenario, mass and one-half are constant but the velocity changes.

You can see that by squaring twice the velocity, that is equal to four times the original KE. Therefore, the answer is 4k.

Answer:

Plane will 741.6959 m apart after 1.7 hour

Explanation:

We have given time = 1.7 hr

So if we draw the vectors of a 2d graph we see that the difference in angles is = $102^{\circ}-65.3^{\circ}=36.7^{\circ}$

Speed of first plane = 730 m/h

So distance traveled by first plane = 730×1.7 = 1241 m

Speed of second plane = 590 m/hr

So distance traveled by second plane = 590×1.7 = 1003 m

We represent these distances as two sides of the triangle, and the distance between the planes as the side opposing the angle 58.6.

Using the law of cosine, $r^2$ representing the distance between the planes, we see that:

$r^2=1241^2+1003^2-2\times 1003\times 1241cos(36.7)=550112.8295$

r = 741.6959 m
