\underbrace{ \sf{Required \: Answer}} :

Longitudinal waves are those in which the particles of a medium vibrate to and fro in the direction of propagation of the wave through the medium. Sound wave is an example of longitudinal wave.

Brrunno [24]

The electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J.

<h3>Electric potential energy</h3>

When work is done on a positive test charge to move it from one location to another, potential energy increases and electric potential increases.

The electric potential energy between the charges when the second charge is at point b is calculated as follows;

ΔU = -w

Ui - Uf = w

Uf = Ui - w

where;

Uf is the final potential energy

Ui is the initial potential energy

w is the work done by the force

Uf = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ J - (-1.9 x 10⁻⁸J)

Uf = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ J + 1.9 x 10⁻⁸ J

Uf = 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J

Thus, the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J.

Anarel [89]
I just figured this out now.
First you would use the formula
Ephoton= hc/λ and substitute in the value's of plank's constant, the speed of light in a vaccum and the wavelength which will give you the energy in joules. Then you go to the reference table and solve for the energy used between the different levels for Mercury making sure to convert electron volts to jules. In the end the correct answer should be energy level D.

A wire is stretched between two posts. Another wire is stretched between two posts that are four times as far apart. The tension
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Therefore,

The speed of the wave on the longer wire is 95 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

For Short wire, speed is

v_{s}=190\ m/s

Let length of Short  and Longer wire be L_{s}\ and\ L_{l} such that

L_{l}=4\times L_{s}

To Find:

v_{l}=?  Speed on the longer wire

Solution:

The speed of a pulse or wave on a string under tension can be found with the equation,

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{F_{T}\times L}{m}

Where,

F_{T} = Tension on the wire

L = Length of Sting

m = mass of String

So here we have,

F_{T} = same

L_{l}=4\times L_{s}

Therefore,

v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{F_{T}\times L_{s}}{m} ......equation ( 1 )

And

v_{l}=\sqrt{\dfrac{F_{T}\times L_{l}}{m}  .......equation ( 2 )

Dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and on Solving we get

\dfrac{v_{s}}{v_{l}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{L_{s}}{L_{l}}}

Therefore,

v_{l}=v_{s}\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times L_{s}}{L_{s}}}=190\times 2=380\ m/s

Therefore,

The speed of the wave on the longer wire is 95 m/s.
