Answer:

0.5 m/s².

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 10 m/s

Time (t) = 20 s

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration can simply be defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

a = (v – u) / t

Where:

a is the acceleration.

v is the final velocity.

u is the initial velocity.

t is the time.

With the above formula, we can obtain the acceleration of the car as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 10 m/s

Time (t) = 20 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (10 – 0) / 20

a = 10/20

a = 0.5 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².

A beam of red light is made to pass through two slits that are 3.55 E-3 meters apart. On a screen 2.25 meters away from the slit

JulsSmile [24]

I am assuming you know the relation obtained between slit width, distance of screen from slits, distance of interference pattern obtained on the screen from the center and the wavelength of monochromatic light used in Young's Double Slit experiment.
λ = $\frac{y*d}{D} = \frac{3.55*10^{-3}*1.25*10^{-4} }{2.25} = 1.97*10^{-7} m$
λ ~ 1.97 ×10⁻⁷m

A ball of mass M is suspended by a thin string (of negligible mass) from the ceiling of an elevator.uploaded image

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor. T > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor. T > mg

(c) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a lower floor. T < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity. T = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing. T < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest. T = mg

Explanation:

To answer this question, consider all the forces acting on the elevator.

The mass of the ball acting downwards due to gravity = mg

The tension on the string depends on upward or downwards force on the ball. T = m(a+g)

where a is acceleration and increase in velocity causes increase in acceleration, and vice versa. (a = v/t)

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a+g) > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing.

Then, T = m(a+g) > mg

If the downward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a-g) < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity

At constant velocity, acceleration is zero, because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

T = m(0+g) = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing

If the downward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing

T = m(a-g) < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest.

if the elevator is at rest, its acceleration is zero

T = m(0+g) = mg

A guitar player tunes the fundamental frequency of a guitar string to 560 Hz. (a) What will be the fundamental frequency if she

lawyer [7]

Answer:

(a) if she increases the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased to 740.6 Hz

(b) If she decrease the length of the the string by one-third the fundamental frequency will be increased to 840 Hz

Explanation:

(a) The fundamental, f₁, frequency is given as follows;

$f_1 = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}} }{2 \cdot L}$

Where;

T = The tension in the string

μ = The linear density of the string

L = The length of the string

f₁ = The fundamental frequency = 560 Hz

If the tension in the string is increased by 15%, we will have;

$f_{(1 \, new)} = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T\times 1.15}{\mu}} }{2 \cdot L} = 1.3225 \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}} }{2 \cdot L} = 1.3225 \times f_1$

$f_{(1 \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 = (1 + 0.3225) \times f_1$

$f_{(1 \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 =\dfrac{132.25}{100} \times 560 \ Hz = 740.6 \ Hz$

Therefore, if the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased by a fraction of 0.3225 or 32.25% to 740.6 Hz

(b) When the string length is decreased by one-third, we have;

The new length of the string, $L_{new}$ = 2/3·L

The value of the fundamental frequency will then be given as follows;

$f_{(1 \, new)} = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}} }{2 \times \dfrac{2 \times L}{3} } =\dfrac{3}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}} }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{3}{2} \times 560 \ Hz = 840 \ Hz$

When the string length is reduced by one-third, the fundamental frequency increases to one-half or 50% to 840 Hz.
