The speed is 36 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Speed of any wave is the measure of how fast the wave is propagating or travelling in medium. So, the speed of the wave can be calculated as the product of frequency with wavelength of that wave.

Thus, speed is directly proportional to the frequency and wavelength of a wave.

Speed = Frequency \times wavelength

<u>Given data:</u>

frequency of the wave is given as 12 Hz

wavelength is given as 3 m

Therefore, the speed will be

Speed = 12 × 3 = 36 m/s

Thus, the speed of the transverse wave is 36 m/s.

A baseball m=.34kg is spun vertically on a massless string of length l=.52m. the string can only support a tension of tmax=9.9n
larisa86 [58]
<span>4.5 m/s This is an exercise in centripetal force. The formula is F = mv^2/r where m = mass v = velocity r = radius Now to add a little extra twist to the fun, we're swinging in a vertical plane so gravity comes into effect. At the bottom of the swing, the force experienced is the F above plus the acceleration due to gravity, and at the top of the swing, the force experienced is the F above minus the acceleration due to gravity. I will assume you're capable of changing the velocity of the ball quickly so you don't break the string at the bottom of the loop. Let's determine the force we get from gravity. 0.34 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.332 kg m/s^2 = 3.332 N Since we're getting some help from gravity, the force that will break the string is 9.9 N + 3.332 N = 13.232 N Plug known values into formula. F = mv^2/r 13.232 kg m/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 / 0.52 m 6.88064 kg m^2/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 20.23717647 m^2/s^2 = V^2 4.498574938 m/s = V Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 4.5 m/s The actual obtainable velocity is likely to be much lower. You may handle 13.232 N at the top of the swing where gravity is helping to keep you from breaking the string, but at the bottom of the swing, you can only handle 6.568 N where gravity is working against you, making the string easier to break.</span>
