A string is vibrating between two posts as shown above. Students are to determine the speed of the wave within this string. They

have already measured the amount of time necessary for the wave to oscillate up and down. The students must also take what other measurements to determine the speed of the wave?
A. The distance between the two posts.
B. The amplitude of the wave
C. The tension in the string
D. The amplitude of the wave and the tension in the string
E. The distance between the two posts, the amplitude of the wave, and the tension in the string

Answer:

The distance between two posts

Explanation:

As the students have already measured the amount of time necessary for the wave to oscillate up and down that is on the string between two posts,They have to measure the speed of the wave.

        ie  v=fλ

<em>They have to measure distance between the posts. </em>

Because wavelength is equal to the distance between the posts ie full length of string.

The frequency of the wave is calculated by

               f= 1/T

Where is the time period which the students have calculated ie the amount of time taken to oscillate up and down,

Thus the wave speed is calculated using formula

            v=λ/T

If a car goes at a speed of 80 kph in 10 seconds, what is the distance
Blababa [14]

Answer:222 meters

Explanation:

Speed=80kph=(80x5/18)=(80x5)/18=22.2m/s

Time=10 seconds

distance=speed x time

distance=22.2 x 10

distance=222

distance=222 meters

What is a benefit of fuel cell cars over standard cars?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Fuel cells have a higher efficiency than diesel or gas engines.

Most fuel cells operate silently, compared to internal combustion engines.

Fuel cells can eliminate pollution caused by burning fossil fuels.

What are the factor that affect the efficiency of a pulley​
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Tension in the chains - In a chain drive, technically, you have a closed-chain (which has no end) going around 2 pulley or gears; looking closely you have 2 parallel chains going in opposite direction. If kept in horizontal direction, the one below the other is the slack side and the other the tight side. The tension on the upper or tight side is more than the slack side. So you need to keep in mind to keep your chain drive tight so that there is no loss or rotation or lags.

Sizes of the pulley/gear - The chain will be warped around a pair of pulley or gear. The sizes of these pulley/gear will also determine the efficiency of the chain drive (consider one big and one small)

Number of pulley/gear - If the number of pulley/gear is more and chain wrapped on it with little complexity will result in decrease in efficiency because of extra tension.

Length of the chain drive - You cannot have much too long chain drive. It will make your slack side more heavy because the end are further away. You have to apply more power and possibilities of lag increases decreasing efficiency. In an ideal situation, this won't happen, but this world isn't ideal.

Friction between chains & pulley/gear - If you have studied gears (involving its teeth), you will come to know that there is friction offered on the two meeting surfaces.

Angle of contact - This would have been explained better with a diagram. Although, if you are familiar with the terms you won't have difficulty understanding. Angle of contact is the angle the chain forms with the pulley/gear at the point of contact with the center of the pulley. The angle of contact should not be too small, or else the things will be slippery.

A plane passes over Point A with a velocity of 8000 m/s north. Forty seconds later it passes over Point B at a velocity of 10,00
Airida [17]

Answer:

The planes’ acceleration from A to B is 500m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that the initial velocity u is 8000m/s

and also given the final velocity v=10,000 m/s

the time taken to move from A to B = 40 second

The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with time

we know that the expression for acceleration is given as

a=(v-u)/t

substituting our given data into the expression for a we have

a=(10000-8000)/40

a=2000/40

a=500m/s^2

The planes’ acceleration from A to B is 500m/s^2
