Which of the following wavelengths will produce standing waves on a string that is 3.5 m long?

denpristay [2]

In a string of length L, the wavelength of the n-th harmonic of the standing wave produced in the string is given by:

$\lambda=\frac{2}{n} L$

The length of the string in this problem is L=3.5 m, therefore the wavelength of the 1st harmonic of the standing wave is:

$\lambda=\frac{2}{1} \cdot 3.5 m=7.0 m$

The wavelength of the 2nd harmonic is:

$\lambda=\frac{2}{2} \cdot 3.5 m=3.5 m$

The wavelength of the 4th harmonic is:

$\lambda=\frac{2}{4} \cdot 3.5 m=1.75 m$

It is not possible to find any integer n such that $\lambda=5 m$ , therefore the correct options are A, B and D.

galina1969 [7]

Question:

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.20 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.430 T. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire assuming the following angles between the magnetic field and the current.

(a)60 (b)90 (c)120

Answer:

(a)5.42 N (b)6.26 N (c)5.42 N

Explanation:

From the question

Length of wire (L) = 2.80 m

Current in wire (I) = 5.20 A

Magnetic field (B) = 0.430 T

Angle are different in each part.

The magnetic force is given by

$F=I \times B \times L \times sin(\theta)$

So from data

$F = 5.20 A \times 0.430 T \times 2.80 sin(\theta)\\\\F=6.2608 sin(\theta) N$

Now sub parts

(a)

$\theta=60^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(60^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N$

(b)

$\theta=90^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(90^{o}) N\\\\Force = 6.26 N$

(c)

$\theta=120^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(120^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N$
