You have a string with a mass of 0.0133 kg. You stretch the string with a force of 8.89 N, giving it a length of 1.97 m. Then, y

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(i) The wavelength is 0.985 m

(ii) The frequency of the wave is 36.84 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the string, m = 0.0133 kg

tensional force on the string, T = 8.89 N

length of the string, L = 1.97 m

Velocity of the wave is:

$V = \sqrt{\frac{F_T}{M/L} } \\\\V = \sqrt{\frac{8.89}{0.0133/1.97} } \ = 36.29 \ m/s$

(i) The wavelength:

Fourth harmonic of a string with two nodes, the wavelength is given as,

L = 2λ

λ = L/2

λ = 1.97 / 2

λ = 0.985 m

(ii) Frequency of the wave is:

v = fλ

f = v / λ

f = 36.29 / 0.985

f = 36.84 Hz

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm

Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure $P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa$

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury $\rho= 13.59 g/cm^3$

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

$p = \rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h$

$h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}$

$h=0.76\ m$

We need to calculate the new height

$h''=h - h'$

$h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}$

$h''=0.76-0.027$

$h''=0.733\ m$

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

$P=\rho g h$

Put the value into the formula

$P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733$

$P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is $0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa$ .

Suppose Earth orbited a star whose mass was double the mass of the sun. If the radius of Earth’s orbit remained the same as it i

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Two times as much

Explanation:

The equation for gravitational force is: Fg = GMm/r^2 with G being the universal gravitational constant.

So to make things easier we'll set r equal to 1 since it's a constant as well as G.

Then we're left with Fg=Mm with M being the mass of the sun and m being the mass of the earth.

So if m is constant and supposedly equals 1 then Fg=M so Fg is proportional to M therefore if M doubles then Fg doubles.

Two identical balls are thrown vertically upward. the second ball is thrown with an initial speed that is twice that of the firs

Temka [501]

The motion of the ball on the vertical axis is an accelerated motion, with acceleration
$a=g=-9.81 m/s^2$
The following relationship holds for an uniformly accelerated motion:
$2aS=v_f^2 - v_i^2$
where S is the distance covered, vf the final velocity and vi the initial velocity.

If we take the moment the ball reaches the maximum height (let's call this height h), then at this point of the motion the vertical velocity is zero:
$v_f =0$
So we can rewrite the equation as
$2(-9.81 m/s^2) h=-v_i^2$
from which we can isolate h
$h= \frac{v_i^2}{19.62}$ (1)

Now let's assume that $v_i$ is the initial velocity of the first ball. The second ball has an initial velocity that is twice the one of the first ball: $2v_i$ . So the maximum height of the second ball is
$h= \frac{(2v_i)^2}{19.62}= \frac{4v_i^2}{19.62}$ (2)

Which is 4 times the height we found in (1). Therefore, the maximum height of ball 2 is 4 times the maximum height of ball 1.
