A horizontal wire is stretched with a tension of 98.4 N, and the speed of transverse waves for the wire is 406 m/s. What must th

e amplitude of a traveling wave of frequency 60.5 Hz be for the average power carried by the wave to be 0.391 W? Give an answer in mm. Pay attention to the number of significant figures.

Answer:

Amplitude = 4.725 mm

Explanation:

We have got the following values :

T = 98.4 N

T is the wire tension

v = 406 m/s

v is the transverse waves speed

f = 60.5 Hz

f is the frequency

ΔU = 0.391 W

ΔU is the average power carried by the wave

If μ is the mass per unit length of the wire ⇒ μ = $\frac{T}{v^{2}}$

If ω is the angular frequency of the wire ⇒ ω = 2π.f

So ω = 2π(60.5 Hz) and ω units are $s^{-1}$

The equation that relates all is :

ΔU = (1/2).(T/v^2).(ω^2).(A^2).v

Where A is the wave amplitude

$0.391 W=\frac{1}{2}.\frac{98.4 N}{(406\frac{m}{s})^{2}}.(2.pi.(60.5Hz))^{2}.A^{2}.406\frac{m}{s}$

This will give us A in meters

$A=4.7253(10^{-3})m\\A=4.725 mm$

Increased lamp voltage is achieved by turning the light intensity dial.

To enlarge the diameter of the hole and let more light through the slide, the iris diaphragm was modified.

Condenser: Position it higher and closer to the slide's bottom to better direct light to the centre of the slide.

<h3>How do you adjust the light level on a microscope?</h3>

Utilize the brightness adjustment knob to change the brightness. Turn the brightness control knob while looking through the eyepieces to make sure there is no glare in the field of view.

Use a daylight balancing filter if your compound microscope has a certain sort of illumination. It typically rests directly on top of the luminator or in a filter holder above the light. This filter is blue.

The daylight balancing filter will correct the colour temperature and produce a higher-quality image if your microscope is lighted by tungsten or halogen (and a better colour image). This blue filter is not necessary if your microscope is an LED.

Thermopane window is constructed, using two layers of glass 4.0 mm thick, separated by an air space of 5.0 mm.

Bond [772]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to rate of thermal conduction

$\frac{Q}{t} = \frac{kA\Delta T}{d}$

The letter Q represents the amount of heat transferred in a time t, k is the thermal conductivity constant for the material, A is the cross sectional area of the material transferring heat, $\Delta T$ , T is the difference in temperature between one side of the material and the other, and d is the thickness of the material.

The change made between glass and air would be determined by:

$(\frac{Q}{t})_{glass} = (\frac{Q}{t})_{air}$

$k_{glass}(\frac{A}{L})_{glass} \Delta T_{glass} = k_{air}(A/L)_{air} \Delta T_{air}$

$\Delta T_{air} = (\frac{k_{glass}}{k_{air}})(\frac{L_{air}}{L_{glass}}) \Delta T_{glass}$

$\Delta T_{air} = (\frac{0.84}{0.0234})(\frac{5}{4}) \Delta T_{glass}$

$\Delta T_{air} = 44.9 \Delta T_{glass}$

There are two layers of Glass and one layer of Air so the total temperature would be given as,

$\Delta T = \Delta T_{glass} +\Delta T_{air} +\Delta T_{glass}$

$\Delta T = 2\Delta T_{glass} +\Delta T_{air}$

$20\°C = 46.9\Delta T_{glass}$

$\Delta T_{glass} = 0.426\°C$

Finally the rate of heat flow through this windows is given as,

$\Delta {Q}{t} = k_{glass}\frac{A}{L_{glass}}\Delta T_{glass}$

$\Delta {Q}{t} = 0.84*24*10 -3*0.426$

$\Delta {Q}{t} = 179W$

Therefore the correct answer is D. 180W.

A 2.5 kg steel gasoline tank can holds 20.0 L of gasoline when full. What is the average density (in Kg/m^3) of the full gas can

yarga [219]

Answer:

$D=792.3\ kg/m^3$

Explanation:

<u>Average Density </u>

The density of an object of mass m and volume V is

$\displaystyle D=\frac{m}{V}$

If we know the density and the volume occupied by the object, the mass can be computed as

$m=D.V$

The tank can hold 20 L of gasoline when full. Converting to cubic meters

$V_g=20*0.001=0.02\ m^3$

That's the volume of the gasoline it contains. Knowing the density of the gasoline, we get the mass of gasoline.

$m_g=680*0.02=13.6\ kg$

To know the total mass of both, we add the 2.5 kg of the tank

$m=m_t+m_g=13.6+2.5=16.1\ kg$

The volume of the tank is computed solving for V

$\displaystyle V=\frac{m}{D}$

$\displaystyle V_t=\frac{2.5}{7800}=3.205\times 10^{-4}\ m^3$

The total volume is

$V=V_g+V_t=0.02+3.205\times 10^{-4}=0.0203\ m^3$

The average density is

$\displaystyle D=\frac{16.1}{0.0203}$

$\boxed{D=792.3\ kg/m^3}$

A 15kg dog jumps out of a 40kg canoe. If the dogs velocity is 1.2m/s, what is the velocity of the canoe?

vivado [14]

Answer:

v = -0.45 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the canoe was initially at rest with momentum L = 0

and that the dog's velocity is in the positive direction

conservation of momentum

0 = 15(1.2) + 40v

v = -0.45 m/s

Sedaia [141]

Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Under what circumstances does distance traveled equal magnitude of displacement?

When a body's motion is linear in one direction. Or a body moving in a straight line without turning back.

What is the only case in which magnitude of displacement and distance are exactly the same?

When the body is moving in a straight line with without changing direction or without turning back.
