A 0.46-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.2 m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels

down the cord and reaches the other support in 0.74 s.
What is the tension in the cord? (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

      T = 6.0 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of the cord = 0.46 Kg

length of the supports = 7.2 m

time taken to travel = 0.74 s

tension in the chord = ?

using formula for tension calculation

T = \dfrac{v^2.m}{l}

v = \dfrac{l}{s}

v = \dfrac{7.2}{0.74}

v = 9.73 m/s

now, calculation of tension

T = \dfrac{9.73^2\times 0.46}{7.2}

      T = 6.0 N

The tension in the cord is equal to 6.0 N.

Answer:

d

Explanation:

Ya gon find the Kenitic Energy first

K=½mv²===> K=½×0.2×(0.2)²===> 0.1(0.04)===> 0.004

and now the replacement:

0.004=½×0.4V²====> v²=0.02===> V=0.14m/s
