A 26-cm-long wire with a linear density of 20 g/m passes across the open end of an 86-cm-long open-closed tube of air. If the wi

re, which is fixed at both ends, vibrates at its fundamental frequency, the sound wave it generates excites the second vibrational mode of the tube of air.
What is the tension in the wire? Assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s .

Answer: T = 472.71 N

Explanation: The wire vibrates thus making sound waves in the tube.

The frequency of sound wave on the string equals frequency of sound wave in the tube.

L= Length of wire = 26cm = 0.26m

u=linear density of wire = 20g/m = 0.02kg/m

Length of open close tube = 86cm = 0.86m

Sound waves in the tube are generated at the second vibrational mode, hence the relationship between the length of air and and wavelength is given as

L = 3λ/4

0.86 = 3λ/4

3λ = 4 * 0.86

3λ = 3.44

λ = 3.44/3 = 1.15m.

Speed of sound in the tube = 340 m/s

Hence to get frequency of sound, we use the formulae below.

v = fλ

340 = f * 1.15

f = 340/ 1.15

f = 295.65Hz.

f = 295.65 = frequency of sound wave in pipe = frequency of sound wave in string.

The string vibrated at it fundamental frequency hence the relationship the length of string and wavelength is given as

L = λ/2

0.26 = λ/2

λ = 0.52m

The speed of sound in string is given as v = fλ

Where λ = 0.52m f = 295.65 Hz

v = 295.65 * 0.52

v = 153.738 m/s.

The velocity of sound in the string is related to tension, linear density and tension is given below as

v = √(T/u)

153.738 = √T/ 0.02

By squaring both sides

153.738² = T / 0.02

T = 153.738² * 0.02

T = 23,635.372 * 0.02

T= 472.71 N

. A water balloon is thrown horizontally at a speed of 2.00 m/s from the roof of a building that is 6.00m above the ground. At t
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Height of building

H = 6m

Horizontal speed of first balloon

U1x = 2m/s

Second ballot is thrown straight downward at a speed of

U2y = 2m/s

Time each gallon hits the ground

Balloon 1.

Using equation of free fall

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

Uox = 0 since the body does not have vertical component of velocity

6 = ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 4.9t²

t² = 6 / 4.9

t² = 1.224

t = √1.224

t = 1.11 seconds

For second balloon

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

6 = 2t + ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 2t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 2t —6 = 0

Using formula method to solve the quadratic equation

Check attachment

From the solution we see that,

t = 0.9211 and t = -1.329

We will discard the negative value of time since time can't be negative here

So the second balloon get to the ground after t ≈ 0.92 seconds

Conclusion

The water ballon that was thrown straight down at 2.00 m/s hits the ground first by 1.11 s - 0.92s = 0.19 s.

A 10n force is applied to a 25kg mass to slide it across a frictional surface. What is the acceleration of the mass?
klasskru [66]

Answer: a = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c where c is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the surface

Explanation: We know that, by the second Newton's law, a = F/m

where a is the acceleration, F is the net force and m is the mass of the object.

Then, if the surface is frictionless, the total force applied in the object is 10N, and the mass of the object is 25kg, so the acceleration is:

a =10N/25kg = 0.4m/s^2.

But if the surface is frictional, there will be a force of friction applied in the mass (this depends on the coefficient of friction and the weight of the mass), this means that the acceleration will be reduced.

If = -(9.8*25)*c

where c is a number that is bigger than 0 and smaller than 1, is called the coefficient of kinetic friction.

So the total force is now:

F = (10 - 9.8*25*c)

Then, the acceleration in a frictional surface is equal to:

a = (10 - 9.8*25*c)/25 = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c
