What of a wave is a measure of the energy it carries

1 answer:

The amplitude of a wave is a measure of the energy it carries. The amplitude of a wave is the distance between the midline of a wave and its crest or trough.

Amplitude measures the amount of energy being transported by a wave. The larger the amplitude, the more the energy that a wave has.

Wave such as water waves have energy. Smaller waves have less energy because they have a smaller amplitude. Tsunamis have very high amplitudes and thus have a huge amount of energy

10. How far does a transverse pulse travel in 1.23 ms on a string with a density of 5.47 × 10−3 kg/m under tension of 47.8 ?????

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: Tension = 47.8N, Δx = 11.5× $10^{-6}$ m.

Tension = 95.6N, Δx = 15.4× $10^{-5}$ m

Explanation: A speed of wave on a string under a tension force can be calculated as:

$|v| = \sqrt{\frac{F_{T}}{\mu} }$

$F_{T}$ is tension force (N)

μ is linear density (kg/m)

Determining velocity:

$|v| = \sqrt{\frac{47.8}{5.47.10^{-3}} }$

$|v| = \sqrt{0.00874 }$

$|v| =$ 0.0935 m/s

The displacement a pulse traveled in 1.23ms:

$\Delta x = |v|.t$

$\Delta x = 9.35.10^{-2}*1.23.10^{-3}$

Δx = 11.5× $10^{-6}$

With tension of 47.8N, a pulse will travel Δx = 11.5× $10^{-6}$ m.

Doubling Tension:

$|v| = \sqrt{\frac{2*47.8}{5.47.10^{-3}} }$

$|v| = \sqrt{2.0.00874 }$

$|v| = \sqrt{0.01568}$

|v| = 0.1252 m/s

Displacement for same time:

$\Delta x = |v|.t$

$\Delta x = 12.52.10^{-2}*1.23.10^{-3}$

$\Delta x =$ 15.4× $10^{-5}$

With doubled tension, it travels $\Delta x =$ 15.4× $10^{-5}$ m

A metallic wire has a diameter of 4.12mm. When the current in the wire is 8.00A, the drift velocity is 5.40×10−5m/s.What is the

podryga [215]

Answer:

$6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}$

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of wire=d=4.12 mm

Radius of wire=r $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{4.12}{2}=2.06mm=2.06\times 10^{-3} m$

$1mm=10^{-3} m$

Current=I=8 A

Drift velocity= $v_d=5.4\times 10^{-5} m/s$

We have to find the density of free electrons in the metal

We know that

Density of electron= $n=\frac{I}{v_deA}$

Using the formula

Density of free electrons= $\frac{8}{5.4\times 10^{-5}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.14\times (2.06\times 10^{-3})^2}$

By using Area of wire= $\pi r^2$

$\pi=3.14\\e=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Density of free electrons= $6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}$
