Answer:

(a) The speed of the wave, v is 4.2 m/s

(b) Wavelength of the wave, λ is 0.35 m

(c) mathematical expression of the wave, Y = 0.036sin(5.71πx - 24πt)

Explanation:

Given;

tension on the string, T = 15 N

Linear density, μ = 0.85 kg/m

amplitude of the wave, A = 3.6 cm = 0.036 m

frequency of the wave, f = 12 Hz

(a) The speed of the wave, v is calculated as;

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{15}{0.85} }\\\\v = 4.2 \ m/s

(b) Wavelength of the wave, λ

v = fλ

λ = v / f

λ = 4.2 / 12

λ = 0.35 m

(c) mathematical expression of the wave;

Y = Asin(\frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} -\omega t)\\\\Y = Asin(\frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} -2\pi f t)\\\\Y = 0.036sin (\frac{2\pi }{0.35}x -2\pi *12 t)\\\\Y = 0.036sin (5.71 \pi x - 24 \pi t)

How does the area of ​​0.3 m2 of iron change when heated from 20 ° C to 60 ° C?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The quantitative relationship between heat transfer and temperature change contains all three factors: Q = mcΔT, where Q is the symbol for heat transfer, m is the mass of the substance, and ΔT is the change in temperature. The symbol c stands for specific heat and depends on the material and phase. The specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of 1.00 kg of mass by 1.00ºC. The specific heat c is a property of the substance; its SI unit is J/(kg ⋅ K) or J/(kg ⋅ ºC). Recall that the temperature change (ΔT) is the same in units of kelvin and degrees Celsius. If heat transfer is measured in kilocalories, then the unit of specific heat is kcal/(kg ⋅ ºC).

A thin, taut string tied at both ends and oscillating in its third harmonic has its shape described by the equation y(x, t) = (5
barxatty [35]

Answer:

A thin, taut string tied at both ends and oscillating in its third harmonic has its shape described by the equation y(x,t)=(5.60cm)sin[(0.0340rad/cm)x]sin[(50.0rad/s)t]y(x,t)=(5.60cm)sin[(0.0340rad/cm)x]sin[(50.0rad/s)t], where the origin is at the left end of the string, the x-axis is along the string, and the y-axis is perpendicular to the string. (a) Draw a sketch that shows the standing-wave pattern. (b) Find the amplitude of the two traveling waves that make up this standing wave. (c) What is the length of the string? (d) Find the wavelength, frequency, period, and speed of the traveling waves. (e) Find the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string. (f) What would be the equation y(x, t) for this string if it were vibrating in its eighth harmonic?

What is the power output of a pump which can raise 60kg of water height to height of 10m every minute
sattari [20]

Answer:

<h3>Power = Work Done/time</h3>

=> Power = 60×10×10/60

=> Power = 6000/60

=> Power = 100 Watt

Hence the power output of a pump is 100 Watts.

A stationary siren emits sound of frequency 1000 Hz and wavelength 0.343 m. An observer who is moving toward the siren will meas
Ainat [17]

Answer:

f>1000Hz and wavelength=0.343 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Frequency of stationary siren,f=1000 Hz

Wavelength of stationary sound,\lambda=0.343 m

When a observer is moving towards the siren then the frequency increases.

Therefore,an observer who is moving towards the siren measure a frequency >1000 Hz.

The wavelength depends upon the speed of source.

But we are given that siren is stationary.

Therefore, source is not moving and then the wavelength remains same.

f>1000Hz and wavelength=0.343 m
