Answer:

a) Two points that differ in phase by π/8 rad are 0.0461 m apart.

b) The phase difference between two displacements at a certain point at times 1.6 ms apart is 4π/3.

Explanation:

f = 420 Hz, v = 310 m/s, λ = wavelength = ?

v = fλ

λ = v/f = 310/420 = 0.738 m

T = periodic time of the wave = 1/420 = 0.00238 s = 0.0024 s = 2.4 ms

a) Two points that differ in phase by π/8 rad

In terms of the wavelength of the wave, this is equivalent to [(π/8)/2π] fraction of a wavelength,

[(π/8)/2π] = 1/16 of a wavelength = (1/16) × 0.738 = 0.0461 m

b) two displacements at times 1.6 ms apart.

In terms of periodic time, 1.6ms is (1.6/2.4) fraction of the periodic time.

1.6/2.4 = 2/3.

This means those two points are 2/3 fraction of a periodic time away from each other.

1 complete wave = 2π rad

Points 2/3 fraction of a wave from each other will have a phase difference of 2/3 × 2π = 4π/3.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

A vector is a phenomenon which in mostly used in mathematics and physics and is related to direction and size.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In mathematics and physics, a vector is a component of a vector space. For some, particular vector spaces, the vectors have gotten explicit names, which are recorded beneath. Verifiably, vectors were presented in geometry and material science before the formalization of the idea of vector space.  

A vector is an amount or phenomenon that has two autonomous properties: magnitude and direction. The term likewise means the numerical or geometrical portrayal of such an amount.

When subject to an unknown torque, the shear stress in a 2 mm thick rectangular tube of dimension 100 mm x 200 mm was found to b
laila [671]

Answer:

The shear stress will be 80 MPa

Explanation:

Here we have;

τ = (T·r)/J

For rectangular tube, we have;

Average shear stress given as follows;

Where;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{T}{2tA_{m}}

A_m = 100 mm × 200 mm = 20000 mm² = 0.02 m²

t = Thickness of the shaft in question = 2 mm = 0.002 m

T = Applied torque

Therefore, 50 MPa = T/(2×0.002×0.02)

T = 50 MPa × 0.00008 m³ = 4000 N·m

Where the dimension is 50 mm × 250 mm, which is 0.05 m × 0.25 m

Therefore, A_m = 0.05 m × 0.25 m = 0.0125 m².

Therefore, from the following average shear stress formula, we have;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{T}{2tA_{m}}

Plugging in then values, gives;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{4000}{2\times 0.002 \times 0.0125} = 80,000,000 Pa

The shear stress will be 80,000,000 Pa or 80 MPa.
