A transverse wave on a string is described by the following wave function.y = (0.090 m) sin (px/11 + 4pt)(a) Determine the trans

alukav5142 [94]

Explanation:

(a) It is known that equation for transverse wave is given as follows.

y = $(0.09 m)sin(\pi \frac{x}{11} + 4 \pi t)$

Now, we will compare above equation with the standard form of transeverse wave equation,

y = $A sin(kx + \omega t)$

where, A is the amplitude = 0.09 m

k is the wave vector = $\frac{\pi}{11}$

$\omega$ is the angular frequency = $4\pi$

x is displacement = 1.40 m

t is the time = 0.16 s

Now, we will differentiate the equation with respect to t as follows.

The speed of the wave will be:

v(t) = $\frac{dy}{dt}$

v(t) = $A \omega cos(kx + \omega t)$

v(t) = $(0.09 m)(4\pi) cos(\frac{\pi \times 1.4}{11} + 4 \pi \times 0.16)$

v(t) = -0.84 m/s

The acceleration of the particle in the location is

a(t) = $\frac{dv}{dt}$

a(t) = $-A \omega 2sin(kx + \omega t)$

a(t) = $-(0.09 m)(4 \pi)2 sin(\frac{\pi \times 1.4}{11} + 4\pi \times 0.16)$

a(t) = -9.49 $m/s^{2}$

Hence, the value of transverse wave is 0.84 m/s and the value of acceleration is 9.49 $m/s^{2}$ .

(b) Wavelength of the wave is given as follows.

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

$\lambda = (frac{2\pi}{\frac{\pi}{11})
$

$\lambda$ = 22 m

The period of the wave is

T = $\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}$

T = $\frac{2 \pi}{4 \pi}$

= 0.5 sec

Now, we will calculate the speed of propagation of wave as follows.

v = $\frac{\lambda}{T}$

= $\frac{22 m}{0.5 s}$

= 44 m/s

therefore, we can conclude that wavelength is 22 m, period is 0.5 sec, and speed of propagation of wave is 44 m/s.

Structures on a bird feather act like a diffraction grating having 7000 7000 lines per centimeter. What is the angle of the firs

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

θ = 28.9°

Explanation:

We are given;

Wavelength; λ = 602nm = 602 x 10^(-9) m

Lines per centimetre = 7000 /cm = 700000 /m

Thus, the distance between 2 adjacent lines is;

d = 1/700000 = 1.43 x 10^(-6) m

The angle at which diffracted light is formed is given by the formula

mλ = d sinθ

Where;

m is the mth order of the diffraction

λ is the wavelength of the incident light

d is the distance separating the centres of 2 adjacent slits

θ is the angle at which diffraction occurs

From the question, m is 1 because it says first order.

Thus, plugging in the relevant values into mλ = d sinθ, we have;

1 x 602 x 10^(-9) = 1.43 x 10^(-6) sinθ

sinθ = 602 x 10^(-9)/(1.43 x 10^(-6))

sinθ = 0.42098

θ = sin^(-1) 0.42098

θ = 28.9°

A planet moves fastest in its orbit around the sun when it is at which position?

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

When it's closest to the sun.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.

Fg = m v^2 / r

The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:

Fg = mMG / r^2

Therefore:

mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r

MG / r = v^2

v increases as r decreases. So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?

Vanyuwa [196]

Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.
