A scaffold of mass 57 kg and length 6.5 m is supported in a horizontal position by a vertical cable at each end. A window washer

of mass 79 kg stands at a point 1.9 m from one end. (a) What is the tension in the cable closer to the painter? (b) What is the tension in the cable further from the painter?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     m_{1} = 57 kg,        m_{2} = 79 kg

      l_{1} = 6.5 m,         l_{2} = (6.5 - 1.9) m = 4.6 m

(a)  The sum of torque ends about far end is as follows.

    m_{1}g \frac{l_{1}}{2} + m_{2}g \times l_{2} - T \times l_{1} = 0

     57 \times 9.81 \times \frac{6.5}{2} + 79 \times 9.81 \times (6.5 - 1.9) - T \times 6.5 = 0

                     T = 828 N

Therefore, 828 N is the tension in the cable closer to the painter.

(b)  Now, we will calculate the sum about close ends as follows.

m_{1}g \frac{l_{1}}{2} + m_{2}g \times (1.9) - T \times l_{1}    

  57 \times 9.81 \times \frac{6.5}{2} + 79 \times 9.81 \times (1.9) - T \times 6.5 = 0

                            T= 506 N

Therefore, 506 N is the tension in the cable further from the painter.

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s
