To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 15.1 Mechanical Waves. Waves on a string are described by the following general equation y(

x,t)=Acos(kx−ωt). A transverse wave on a string is traveling in the +x direction with a wave speed of 8.25 m/s , an amplitude of 5.50×10−2 m , and a wavelength of 0.540 m . At time t=0, the x=0 end of the string has its maximum upward displacement. Find the transverse displacement y of a particle at x = 1.51 m and t = 0.150 s .

Answer:

The transverse displacement is   y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m    

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

     The generally equation for the mechanical wave is

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

     The speed of the transverse wave is v = 8.25 \ m/s

     The amplitude of the transverse wave is A = 5.50 *10^{-2} m

     The wavelength of the transverse wave is \lambda = 0540 m

      At t= 0.150s , x = 1.51 m

 The angular frequency of the wave is mathematically represented as

          w = vk

Substituting values  

         w = 8.25 * 11.64

        w = 96.03 \ rad/s

The propagation constant k is mathematically represented as

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

Substituting values

                  k = \frac{2 * 3.142}{0. 540}

                   k =11.64 m^{-1}

Substituting values into the equation for mechanical waves

      y(1.51 , 0.150) = (5.50*10^{-2} ) cos ((11.64 * 1.151 ) - (96.03  * 0.150))

       y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m

The average coefficient of linear expansion of copper is 1.7 10-5 (°c)−1. the statue of liberty is 93 m tall on a summer morning
sammy [17]

Let the rise in temperature be 5^0C

The expansion in length due to change in temperature is given by the expression lαΔt , where l is the length, α is the  coefficient of linear expansion, Δt is the change in temperature.

Here l = 93 m, α = 1.7*10^{-5}  ^0C^{-1}, and Δt = 5^0C

So expansion in length = 93*1.7*10^{-5}*5 = 0.007905 m = 0.79*10^{-3}m

So order of magnitude in change in length = -3

This isn’t homework related but what methods do you guys recommend for shifting realities ? .I’ve tried the raven method for wee
elena55 [62]

Answer:

subs

Explanation:

I've seen subliminals online that are supposed to help shifting. You could see for yourself if they work for you. You could probably also use the method where you act like you already have your desires and results. I have seen a lot of people act as if they have their desires and affirm it constantly. Ex: you want to lose weight, so you act as if you already are your desired weight and tell yourself that you are such and such weight, and don't contradict it by saying that you aren't. I hope that this helps.
