Does the tension of a string affect the speed of a wave

1 answer:

5 0

Yes , increased tension suggests increased molecular attraction between the molecules of the ropes which affect the increase in the speed of wave.

A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1,800-N forward push by the water on the propeller, and th

baherus [9]

(a)The acceleration of the 1,400-kg boat will be 0.425 m/sec²

(b) If it starts from rest, the distance through which the boat moves in 20.0 s will be 85 m.

(c)Velocity at the end of that time will be 8.5 m/sec.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of distance with respect to time is defined as speed. Speed is a scalar quantity. It is a time-based component. Its unit is m/sec.

Given data;

Forwad force acting on the boat,v₁ = 1,800-N

Resistive force acting on the boat,v₂ = 1,200-N

The acceleration of the boat,a

Mass of boat,m = 1,400-kg

Initial velocity of boat,u= 0 m/sec

Distance travelled by boat,S = ?

Time for the boat travels,t = 20.0 s

Final velocity,V = ? m/sec

The net force on the boat;

F = F₁ - F₂

F = 1800 N - 1200 N

F = 600 N

From the defination of force;

F= ma

a = F / m

a = 600 N / 1400 kg

a = 0.425 m/sec²

The distance through which the boat moves is 20.0 s;

$\rm x_f = x_ 0 + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2} at^2 \\\\ x_f = \frac{1}{2}at^2 \\\\ x_f = 0+0 + \frac{1}{2} at^2 \\\\ x_f = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.425 \times (20 )^ 2 \\\\ x_f = 85 \ m$

The velocity at the end of that time is found as;

$\rm v_f = v_ 0 + at \\\\ v_f =- 0+ at \\\\ v_f = 8.5$ m/sec

Hence the acceleration of the boat, the distance through which the boat moves in 20.0 s, and velocity at the end of that time will be 0.425 m/sec²,85 m, and 8.5 m/sec.

A current of 1.41 A in a long, straight wire produces a magnetic field of 5.61 uT at a certain distance from the wire. Find

pshichka [43]

Answer:

0.050 m

Explanation:

The strength of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$

where

$\mu_0=4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m$ is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

And the magnetic field around the wire forms concentric circles, and it is tangential to the circles.

In this problem, we have:

$I=1.41 A$ (current in the wire)

$B=5.61\mu T=5.61\cdot 10^{-6} T$ (strength of magnetic field)

Solving for r, we find the distance from the wire:

$r=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi B}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(1.41)}{2\pi (5.61\cdot 10^{-6})}=0.050 m$

A small spinning asteroid is in a circular orbit around a star, much like the earth's motion around our sun. The asteroid has a

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Temperature will be 305 K

Explanation:

We have given The asteroid has a surface area $A=7.70m^2$

Power absorbed P = 3800 watt

Boltzmann constant $\sigma =5.67\times 10^{-8}Wm/K^4$

According to Boltzmann rule power radiated is given by

$P=\sigma AT^4$

$3800=5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 7.70\times T^4$

$T^4=87.0381\times 10^8$

$T=305K$

So temperature will be 305 K

a car moving with a speed of 10 metre per second is accelerator at the rate of 2 metre per second square find its velocity after

STatiana [176]

a = ( v(2) - v(1) ) ÷ ( t(2) - t(1) )

2 = ( v(2) - 10 ) ÷ ( 6 - 0 )

2 × 6 = v(2) - 10

v(2) = 12 + 10

v(2) = 22 m/s

100 POINTS!!! :D

charle [14.2K]

Explanation:

... in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the force on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs.
