4. A light string is attatched to a heavy rope, and the whole thing is pulled tight. A wave is sent along the light string. When
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is (A)

When it hits the heavy rope, compared to the wave on the string, the wave that propagates along the rope has the same (A) frequency

Explanation:

The speed of a wave in a string is dependent on the square root of the tension ad inversely proportional  to the square root of the linear density of the string. Generally, the speed of a wave through a spring is dependent on the elastic and inertia properties of the string

v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu } } =  \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L } }

Therefore if the linear density of the heavy rope is four times that of light rope the velocity is halved and since

v = f×λ therefore  v/2 = f×λ/2

Therefore the wavelength is halved, however the frequency remains the same as continuity requires the frequency of the incident pulse vibration to be transmitted to the denser medium for the wave to continue as the wave is due to vibrating particles from a source for example

Simple Circuit and Ohm's Law Check-for-Understanding
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

current, only

Explanation:

current:I

voltage:U

resistance:R

formula: I=U/R

Increasing the battery cause the increasing in the voltage. Resistance does not normally change. And the current would increase.

Describe the parts of a lever. Include the following terms (fulcrum, resistance arm and effort arm).
yarga [219]

Answer:

hi here is your answer and this is a very important question.

Explanation:

A lever is a rigid bar with three parts: the fixed point around which the bar pivots is the fulcrum: the effort arm (in-lever arm) is the part of the lever to which force is applied; the resistance arm (out-lever arm) is the part that bears the load to be moved.

Current can be made to flow in a stationary conductor by ............................
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A is the answer. Im only 12 and i hope this explanation helps you.

Explanation:

Lenz's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. Faraday's Law tells us that inducing a voltage into a conductor can be done by either passing it through a magnetic field, or by moving the magnetic field past the conductor and that if this conductor is part of a closed circuit, an electric current will flow.

Over a short interval the coordinate of a car in the meters isgiven by x(t) = 27t - 4.0 t3 where time t is in seconds,at the end
wariber [46]

Answer:

5. -24 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity.

The S.I unit of acceleration is m/s².

mathematically,

a = dv/dt ............................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, dv/dt = is the differentiation of velocity with respect to time.

But

v = dx(t)/dt

Where,

x(t) = 27t-4.0t³...................... Equation 2

Therefore, differentiating equation 2 with respect to time.

v = dx(t)/dt = 27-12t²............. Equation 3.

Also differentiating equation 3 with respect to time,

a = dv/dt = -24t

a = -24t .................... Equation 4

from the question,

At the end of 1.0 s,

a = -24(1)

a = -24 m/s².

Thus the acceleration = -24 m/s²

The right option is 5. -24 m/s²
