10) Two students want to use a 12-meter long rope to create standing waves. They first measure the speed at which a single wave

pulse moves from one end of the rope to another and find that it is 36 m/s. What frequency must they vibrate the rope at to create the second harmonic

Answer:

To create a second harmonic the rope must vibrate at the frequency of 3 Hz

Explanation:

First we find the fundamental frequency of the rope. The fundamental frequency is the frequency of the rope when it vibrates in only 1 loop. Therefore,

f₁ = v/2L

where,

v = speed of wave = 36 m/s

L = Length of rope = 12 m

f₁ = fundamental frequency

Therefore,

f₁ = (36 m/s)/2(12 m)

f₁ = 1.5 Hz

Now the frequency of nth harmonic is given in general, as:

fn = nf₁

where,

fn = frequency of nth harmonic

n = No. of Harmonic = 2

f₁ = fundamental frequency = 1.5 Hz

Therefore,

f₂ = (2)(1.5 Hz)

<u>f₂ = 3 Hz</u>

What are the three most important types of units in radiobiology? Explain the meaning of each.
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Most adverse health effects of radiation exposure may be grouped in two general categories:

deterministic effects (harmful tissue reactions) due in large part to the killing/ malfunction of cells following high doses; and

stochastic effects, i.e., cancer and heritable effects involving either cancer development in exposed individuals owing to mutation of somatic cells or heritable disease in their offspring owing to mutation of reproductive (germ)

A 50-loop circular coil has a radius of 3 cm. It is oriented so that the field lines of a magnetic field are perpendicular to th
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

-17.8 V

Explanation:

The induced emf in a coil is given as:

E = \frac{-NdB\pi r^2}{dt}

where N = number of loops

dB = change in magnetic field

r = radius of coil

dt = elapsed time

From the question:

N = 50

dB = final magnetic field - initial magnetic field

dB = 0.35 - 0.10 = 0.25 T

r = 3 cm

dt = 2 ms = 0.002 secs

Therefore, the induced emf is:

E = \frac{-50 * 0.25 * \pi * 0.03^2}{0.002} \\E = -17.8 V

Note: The negative sign implies that the EMf acts in an opposite direction to the change in magnetic flux.

A wheel rotates 3 times. What is its angular displacement?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The angular displacement would be 6 Pi radians or 1080 degrees.

Explanation:

Every individual rotation is 2 Pi (this applies to anything regardless of radius).

Since there are three rotations you are going to multiply 2 Pi by 3.

This will give you 6 Pi which you can convert to equal 1080 degrees (1 Pi = 180 degrees).

What an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Newton's First Law of Motion states that every object continues in it's state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.
