Answer:

The speed is equals to 22.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given Data:

Area = A=2.54*10^-^3m^2\\Force = F = 1.01*10^4N\\density = p = 7860 kg/m^3

Required:

Speed of Traverse wave = c =?

Solution:

As we know that

p=m/V\\\\ p=m/(L*A)\\p*A=m/L

Now the equation for speed of traverse wave is calculated through:

\sqrt \frac{F*L}{m}\\

=\sqrt\frac{F}{m/L} \\\sqrt{} \frac{F}{p*A}

Substituting the values

\sqrt\frac{1.01*10^4}{7860*2.54*10^-^3}  \\

=22.49 m/s

How are longitudinal and transverse waves different?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A longitudinal wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the wave. On the other hand, a transverse wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is at a right angle to the wave direction.

A projectile is launched vertically at 100 m/s. If air resistance can be ignored, at what speed will it return to its initial le
eduard
<h2>Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 100 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = ?

Displacement, s = 0 m  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 100² + 2 x -9.81 x 0

v² = 100²

v = ±100 m/s

+100 m/s is initial velocity and -100 m/s is final velocity.

Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s

Vector A has components Ax=1.30cm, Ay= 2.25cm; vector B has components Bx=4.10cm, By=-3.75cm.
geniusboy [140]
We  are given with the x and y components of Vector A and B. In this case, we compute the resultant of both components of each vector. The vector is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the components. A is equal to 2.60 cm. B is equal to 5.56 cm. B is found in quadrant Iv and has an angle of 42.447 degrees as a terminal angle. A has an angle of 59.98 degrees. 
a. 5.6082 < -15.53 degreesc. 6.63 <-64.98 degreesb. x = 6.63 cos -64.98 degrees = 2.80   y = 6.63 sin -64.98 degrees = -6.00
