Answer: Wavelength

Explanation:

The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is its WAVELENGTH. Wavelength can also be termed as the distance between two successive crest and trough of a wave. It is expressed as the ratio of the velocity of the wave to its frequency. As such the wavelength cannot be determined without movement of the wave, the wave has to be in motion because this is what will produce the needed velocity and frequency.

Answer:

wavelenght

Explanation:

The wavelength is the spatial period of a wave, analogous to the temporal period, it is the distance between two consecutive points with maximum amplitude that are repeated in space . In the waves of the sea, the wavelength is easily observed in the separation between two consecutive ridges.

If the maximum tension in the simulation is 10.0 N, what is the linear mass density (m/L) of the string

vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

The speed of a transverse wave on a string of length L and mass m under T is given by the formula

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}$

If the maximum tension in the simulation is 10.0 N, what is the linear mass density (m/L) of the string

Answer:

$(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Speed of a transverse wave given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}$

Maximum Tension is $T=10.0N$

Generally making $(m/l)$ subject from the equation mathematically we have

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}$

$v^2=\frac{T}{(m/l)}$

$(m/l)=\frac{T}{V^2}$

$(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}$

Therefore the Linear mass in terms of Velocity is given by

$(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}$

A string under a tension of 68 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 3.7 m at a speed of 16.53 m/s. The str

alekssr [168]

Answer:

$F = 5253.7 N$

Explanation:

As we know that tension force in the string will be equal to the centripetal force on the string

so we will have

$T = \frac{mv^2}{L}$

now we have

$68 = \frac{m(16.53^2)}{3.7}$

now we have

$68 = 73.8 m$

$m = 0.92 kg$

now when string length is 0.896 m and its speed is 71.5 m/s then we will have

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F = \frac{0.92(71.5^2)}{0.896}$

$F = 5253.7 N$

An ideal spring is fixed at one end. A variable force F pulls on the spring. When the magnitude of F reaches a value of 43.8 N,

maw [93]

A force of 43.8 N is required to stretch the spring a distance of 15.5 cm = 0.155 m, so the spring constant k is

43.8 N = k (0.155 m) ==> k = (43.8 N) / (0.155 m) ≈ 283 N/m

The total work done on the spring to stretch it to 15.5 cm from equilibrium is

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.155 m)² ≈ 3.39 J

The total work needed to stretch the spring to 15.5 cm + 10.4 cm = 25.9 cm = 0.259 m from equilibrium would be

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.259 m)² ≈ 9.48 J

Then the additional work needed to stretch the spring 10.4 cm further is the difference, about 6.08 J.

Why copper is classified as a metal.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

It is classified as a metal because of its high ductility, malleability, thermal and electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion. Copper is a mineral used for our everyday use. It is limited and we have to use it wisely because it is not evenly distributed everywhere and also everyone needs it. Copper is element number 29 on the Periodic Table of Elements. It is also used it electronics and wiring.

Consider a string with a length of (47.5 A) cm tied at both end (like on a stringed instrument). If the frequency of the first h

zubka84 [21]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to wavelength as a function of frequency and speed, as well as to determine the wavelength as a function of length.

From the harmonic vibration generated we know that the total length of the string will be equivalent to a half of the wavelength, that is

$L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \rightarrow \lambda = 2L$
