A wave has a period of 2 seconds and a wavelength of 4 meters calculate its frequency and speed

1 answer:

5 0

-- Frequency = 1/period = 1/2sec = 1/2 per sec = <em>1/2 Hz</em>.

-- Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (4 m) x (1/2 per second) = <em>2 m/sec</em>

Complete Question

The complete question is is shown on the first uploaded

Answer:

The elastic potential energy at point B is $PE_{elastic} = 50J$

The kinetic energy at point D is $KE = 75J$

Explanation:

Looking at the given point we can observe that mechanically energy(i.e potential and kinetic energy ) is conserved and it value is $E_ {m} = 100J$

So at point B

$E_{m} = PE_{elastic} +KE$

$100 = PE_{elastic} + KE$

KE at point B is 50J

So $PE_{elastic} = 100 - 50 = 50J$

Now at point D

$E_{m} = PE_{elastic} +KE$

$PE_{elastic}$ at point D is 25J

So $KE = 100 - 25 = 75J$

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 50 MPa (7250 psi) and the stress amplitude was 225 MPa (32,625 psi).

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

275 MPa, -175 MPa

-0.63636

450 MPa

Explanation:

$\sigma_{max}$ = Maximum stress

$\sigma_{min}$ = Minimum stress

$\sigma_m$ = Mean stress = 50 MPa

$\sigma_a$ = Stress amplitude = 225 MPa

Mean stress is given by

$\sigma_m=\frac{\sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}=2\sigma_m\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}=2\times 50\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}=100\ MPa\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}=100-\sigma_{min}$

Stress amplitude is given by

$\sigma_a=\frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}=2\sigma_a\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}=2\times 225\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}=450\ MPa\\\Rightarrow 100-\sigma_{min}-\sigma_{min}=450\\\Rightarrow -2\sigma_{min}=350\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{min}=-175\ MPa$

$\sigma_{max}=100-\sigma_{min}\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}=100-(-175)\\\Rightarrow \sigma_{max}=275\ MPa$

Maximum stress level is 275 MPa

Minimum stress level is -175 MPa

Stress ratio is given by

$R=\frac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}\\\Rightarrow R=\frac{-175}{275}\\\Rightarrow R=-0.63636$

The stress ratio is -0.63636

Stress range is given by

$\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}=450\ MPa$

Magnitude of the stress range is 450 MPa

The radiations detected by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson
were the original heat from the Big Bang.

Today, we call those waves the "Cosmic Microwave Background".

I'm not sure, but I think those guys were awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics
for that discovery.
