Answer

Can the wave travel between the Sun and Earth.

Explanation:

This would be due to the fact that mechanical waves alone require a medium to travel. Electromagnetic waves that are produced on the sun subsequently travel to Earth through the vacuum of outer space. ... Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.

A 1.30-m string of weight 0.0125 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Neglect the v
atroni [7]

Answer:

1. t = 0.0819s

2. W = 0.25N

3. n = 36

4. y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]

Explanation:

1) The given equation is

y(x, t) = Acos(kx -wt)

The relationship between velocity and propagation constant is

v = \frac{\omega}{k}=\frac{2730rad/sec}{172rad/m}\\\\

v = 15.87m/s

Time taken, t = \frac{\lambda}{v}

= \frac{1.3}{15.87}\\\\=0.0819 sec

t = 0.0819s

2)

The velocity of transverse wave is given by

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{W}{\frac{m}{\lambda}}}

mass of string is calculated thus

mg = 0.0125N

m = \frac{0.0125N}{9.8N/s}

m = 0.00128kg

\omega = \frac{v^2m}{\lambda}

\omega = \frac{(15.87^2)(0.00128)}{1.30}

\omega = 0.25N

3)

The propagation constant k is

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}

hence

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{k}\\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 3.142}{172}

\lambda = 0.036 m

No of wavelengths, n is

n = \frac{L}{\lambda}\\\\n = \frac{1.30m}{0.036m}\\

n = 36

4)

The equation of wave travelling down the string is

y(x, t)=Acos[kx -wt]\\\\becomes\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[(172 rad.m)x + (2730 rad.s)t]

without, unit\\\\y(x , t)= Acos[172x + 2730t]

A weightlifter works out at the gym each day. Part of her routine is to lie on her back and lift a 43 kg barbell straight up fro
Tasya [4]

Answer:

A. 231.77 J

B. 5330.71 J

C. 46 donuts

Explanation:

A. To lift the barbell once, she will have to extend it the full length of her arm. The work done will then be:

W = F * d

Where the force is the weight of the barbell.

F = m * g

Hence, the work done in lifting the barbell is:

W = m * g * d

W = 43 * 9.8 * 0.55

W = 231.77 J

B. If she does 23 repetitions, the total energy she expend will be equal to the Potential energy when the barbell is lifted multiplied by 23:

E = 23 * m * g * d

E = 23 * 231.77

E = 5330.71 J

C. 1 Joule = 4.184 calories

5330.71 Joules = 5330.71 * 4.184 = 22303.69

If 1 donut contains 490 calories, the number of donuts she will need will be:

N = 22303.69/490 = 45.5 donuts or 46 donuts

Can you explain how population changes in size
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The population growth rate is the rate at which the population changes in size.

Explanation:

The rate of change is determined by subtracting the number of people that leave the population, through death or emigration, from the number of individuals that enter the population, through birth or immigration.
