A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched, string. the amplitude of this wave is 0.0885 m, it's frequency is

4.31 hz, and its wavelength is 1.21m.
(a) What is the transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave?
(b) How much time is required for 71.7 cycles of the wave to pass a stationary observer?
(c) Viewing the whole wave at any instant, how many cycles are there in a 30.7-m length of string?

Answer:

(a) 0.177 m

(b) 16.491 s

(c) 25 cycles

Explanation:

(a)

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the  wave = 2A ............ Equation 1

Where A = amplitude of the wave.

Given: A = 0.0885 m,

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = (2×0.0885) m

Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = 0.177 m.

(b)

T = 1/f ...................... Equation 2.

Where T = period, f = frequency.

Given: f = 4.31 Hz

T = 1/4.31

T = 0.23 s.

If 1 cycle pass through the stationary observer for 0.23 s.

Then, 71.7 cycles will pass through the stationary observer for (0.23×71.7) s.

= 16.491 s.

(c)

If  1.21 m contains  1 cycle,

Then, 30.7 m will contain (30.7×1)/1.21

= 25.37 cycles

Approximately 25 cycles.

The first ionization energy of a hydrogen atom is 2.18 aj (attojoules). what is the frequency and wavelength, in nanometers, of
jasenka [17]

1) Frequency: 3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz

the energy of the photon absorbed must be equal to the ionization enegy of the atom, which is

E=2.18 aJ=2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J

The energy of a photon is given by

E=hf

where h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck's constant. By using the energy written above and by re-arranging thsi formula, we can calculate the frequency of the photon:

f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js}=3.29\cdot 10^{15} Hz


2) Wavelength: 91.2 nm

The wavelength of the photon can be found from its frequency, by using the following relationship:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light and f is the frequency. Substituting the frequency, we find

\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz}=9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m=91.2 nm

Assume the following values: d1 = 0.880 m , d2 = 1.11 m , d3 = 0.560 m , d4 = 2.08 m , F1 = 510 N , F2 = 306 N , F3 = 501 N , F4
dsp73

Answer:

= 2630.6 N.m

Explanation:

(FR)x = ΣFx = -F4 = -407 N

(FR)y = ΣFy =-F1-F2 -F3 = -510 - 306 - 501 = -1317 N

(MR)B =ΣM + Σ(±Fd)

= MA + F1(d1 +d2) + F2d2 - F4d3

= 1504 + 510(0.880+1.11) +306(1.11) - 407(0.560)

= 2630.64 N.m (counterclockwise)

The net electric charge of an amber rod which has been rubbed with fur is called negative Group of answer choices because amber
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The right option is option E. None of the answer choices given are totally correct.

Explanation:

All insulators normally have an equal amount of positive and negative charges distributed on their surface.

The amber rod (an insulator) is called negative because after the coming together with fur (another insulator), the amber rod rubs off electrons from the fur onto itself and has an overall more negatively charged particles than positively charged particles on its surface.

The fur in turn becomes positive because it has more positive charges than negative on its surface.

So, the convention allows the now rubbed off amber rod to be called negative.

So, it is evident that none of the answer choices are totally correct, the right answer is more of a mix of some of the answer choices and more!

Hope this helps!!
