A steel cable has a cross-sectional area 2.54 10-3 m2 and is kept under a tension of 1.01 104 N. The density of steel is 7860 kg

/m3. Note that this value is not the linear density of the cable. At what speed does a transverse wave move along the cable.

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

What kind of waves are present during an earthquake? ...
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

1. The two main types of waves are body waves and surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the planet like ripples on water. Earthquakes radiate seismic energy as both body and surface waves.

2. potential energy

3. Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration.

4. Refraction is the bending of light

5. Density uses the formula p=m/V, or density (p) is equal to mass (m) divided by volume (V). Density is defined as mass per unit volume.

What is the energy equivalent of an object with a mass of 1.83 kg?
xxMikexx [17]
To determine the energy equivalent of an object, we use the famous equation of Einstein which is E=mc^2 where m is the mass of the object and c is the speed of light (3x10^8 m/s). We calculate as follows:

E = mc^2
E = 1.83 kg (3x10^8 m/s)^2
E = 1.647x10^17 J

How does the direction of acceleration compare with the direction of the net force that produces it
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of the acceleration is in the same direction as the net force causing it.  F = ma is actually a vector equation in which f and a are both vectors and m is a scalar constant.

draw a velocity graph with Vi = 4 m/s and decreasing uniformly so that velocity at 2 seconds is 2 m/s and remaining constant fro
Shkiper50 [21]

For the velocity graph: start at 0s and 4m/s and draw a straight line to 2s and 2 m/s. Then draw a straight horizontal line to 4s and 2m/s

For the acceleration graph: start with a horizontal line from 0s and 2m/s/s to 2s and 2m/s/s. The draw another line from 2 s and 0m/s/s to 4 s and 0m/s/s
