The speed of a wave on a violin A string is 288 m/s and on the G string is 128 m/s. The force exerted on the ends of the string

G is 110N, on the ends of the string A is 350N.
Use this information to determine the ratio of mass per unit length of the strings (A/G).

Answer:

\dfrac{\mu_A}{\mu_G}=0.197

Explanation:

given,

Speed of a wave on violin A = 288 m/s

Speed on the G string = 128 m/s

Force at the end of string G  = 110 N

Force at the end of string A = 350 N

the ratio of mass per unit length of the strings (A/G). = ?

speed for string A

 v_A = \sqrt{\dfrac{F_A}{\mu_A}}.......(1)

speed for string G

 v_G = \sqrt{\dfrac{F_G}{\mu_G}}........(2)

Assuming force is same in both the string

now,

dividing equation (2)/(1)

\dfrac{v_G}{v_A}=\dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{F_G}{\mu_G}}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{F_A}{\mu_A}}}

\dfrac{v_G}{v_A}=\dfrac{\sqrt{\mu_A}}{\sqrt{\mu_G}}

\dfrac{128}{288}=\dfrac{\sqrt{\mu_A}}{\sqrt{\mu_G}}

\dfrac{\mu_A}{\mu_G}=0.197

The closeness of measured values to an accepted value is the BLANK of the data ?
wlad13 [49]
When you refer to how close a measured value is to a standard, accepted or known value, you are talking about the ACCURACY of the data. This is the definition of accuracy when it comes to engineering and other fields of science. 

Accuracy is usually associated or with the term precision, as their definitions are often interchanged.

A 60-kg runner raises his center of mass approximately 0.5 m with each step. Although his leg muscles act as a spring, recapturi
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: P = 36.75W

The additional power needed to account for the loss is 36.75W.

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of the runner m= 60 kg

Height of the centre of gravity h= 0.5m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8m/s

The potential energy of the body for each step is;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.5

PE = 294J

Since the average loss per compression on the leg is 10%.

Energy loss = 10% (P.E)

E = 10% of 294J

E = 29.4J

To calculate the runner's additional power

given that time per stride is = 0.8s

Power P = Energy/time

P = E/t

P = 29.4J/0.8s

P = 36.75W

A roller coaster car of mass m = 300 kg is released from rest at the top of a 60 m high hill (position A), and rolls with a negl
Triss [41]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy and angular momentum

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .

dam is used to block the passage of a river and to generate electricity. Approximately 58.4 x 103 kg of water falls each second
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

8.049 MW

Explanation:

The expression for gravitational potential energy is given as

Ep = mgh............. Equation 1

Ep = gravitational potential energy, m = mass of water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 58.4×10³ kg, h = 20.1 m, g = 9.81 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

Ep =  58.4×10³(20.1)(9.81)

Ep = 1.6098×10⁷ J.

If one half the gravitational potential energy of the water were converted to electrical energy

Electrical energy = Ep/2

Electrical energy = (1.6098×10⁷)/2

Electrical energy = 8.049×10⁶ J

In one seconds,

The power generated = 8.049×10⁶ W

Power generated = 8.049 MW

Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract.
Zina [86]

The statement ‘Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.
