Answer:

145.52137 m/s

1.4 m

0.7 m

60.6339 Hz

121.2678 Hz

Explanation:

T = Tension = 120 N

\mu = Linear density  = \frac{m}{L}

m = Mass of wire = 6.8 g

L = Length of wire = 1.2 m

n = Number of loops

Velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{m}{L}}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{120}{\frac{6.8\times 10^{-3}}{1.2}}}\\\Rightarrow v=145.52137\ m/s

The speed of waves on the wire is 145.52137 m/s

Wavelength is given by

\lambda=\frac{2L}{n}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{2\times 1.2}{1}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=1.4\ m

The wavelength of the waves that produces one-loop standing waves is 1.4 m

\lambda=\frac{2L}{n}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{2\times 1.2}{2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=0.7\ m

The wavelength of the waves that produces two-loop standing waves is 0.7 m

Frequency is given by

f=\frac{nv}{2L}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{1\times 145.52137}{2\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow f=60.6339\ Hz

The frequency of the waves that produces one-loop standing waves is 60.6339 Hz

f=\frac{nv}{2L}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{2\times 145.52137}{2\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow f=121.2678\ Hz

The frequency of the waves that produces two-loop standing waves is 121.2678 Hz

An elevator together with its passengers weights 5000 N. At a certain instant, the tension in its supporting cable is 6000 N. De
gayaneshka [121]
We have to forces acting on the system (elevator+passengers):
1) The weight (W=5000 N), acting downward
2) The cable's tension (T=6000 N), acting upward
So, the two forces have opposite direction. The resultant (in upward direction) will be
F=T-W
And for Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the system causes an acceleration on the system itself, given by
a= \frac{F}{m}
where m is the mass of the system.

So, we need to find F and m.
The resultant of the forces is
F=T-W=6000 N-5000 N=1000 N
To find m, we can use the weight of the system. In fact, the weight of an object is given by
W=mg
where g=9.81 m/s^2. Solving for m, and using W=5000 N, we find
m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{5000 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=510 kg

and at this point, we can calculate the acceleration of the system (elevator+people):
a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{1000 N}{510 kg}=1.96 m/s^2
and the acceleration has the same direction of the resultant force, so upward.

Suppose that you needed to make a pen for some small animals. You have 12 m of fencing. You decide to make a circular pen, becau
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

1.909 m

Explanation:

Length of fence = 12 m

r = Radius of circle made by the provided fence

Cirumference of a circle is given by

C=2\pi r

The circumference of the circle will be equal to the length of the fence

2\pi r=12

\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{12}{2\pi}

\\\Rightarrow r=1.909\ m

The radius of the fence is 1.909 m

Why do some athletes engage in cross training
tigry1 [53]

Answer; Cross training enables your body to recuperate faster from injuries, in some cases because other exercises can directly improve the condition caused by your regular activity. For example, Achilles tendonitis, caused by overuse, can be improved by eccentric strengthening of the calf muscles.Explanation:
