What is a tension force

Physics
1 answer:
hoa [83]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

tension is described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object.

A light wave encounters a partial physical barrier, such as a wall with a hole in it. What is MOST LIKELY to occur?
tatiyna
Most likely, the light wave will be absorbed by the wall. Without any information as to the size and color of the wall, the location and size of the hole, or the location of the light wave, this is a generalized probability problem. For all of the places the light could be, it's more likely that it hits the wall than the hole (if the hole is less than 50% of the area of the wall).

A sound source A and a reflecting surface B move directly toward each other. Relative to the air, the speed of source A is 28.7
aleksandrvk [35]

(a) 1440.5 Hz

The general formula for the Doppler effect is

f'=(\frac{v+v_r}{v+v_s})f

where

f is the original frequency

f is the apparent frequency

v is the velocity of the wave

v_r is the velocity of the receiver (positive if the receiver is moving towards the source, negative otherwise)

v_s is the velocity of the source (positive if the source is moving away from the receiver, negative otherwise)

Here we have

f = 1110 Hz

v = 334 m/s

In the reflector frame (= on surface B), we have also

v_s = v_A = -28.7 m/s (surface A is the source, which is moving towards the receiver)

v_r = +62.2 m/s (surface B is the receiver, which is moving towards the source)

So, the frequency observed in the reflector frame is

f'=(\frac{334 m/s+62.2 m/s}{334 m/s-28.7 m/s})1110 Hz=1440.5 Hz

(b) 0.232 m

The wavelength of a wave is given by

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

In the reflector frame,

f = 1440.5 Hz

So the wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{334 m/s}{1440.5 Hz}=0.232 m

(c) 1481.2 Hz

Again, we can use the same formula

f'=(\frac{v+v_r}{v+v_s})f

In the source frame (= on surface A), we have

v_s = v_B = -62.2 m/s (surface B is now the source, since it reflects the wave, and it is moving towards the receiver)

v_r = +28.7 m/s (surface A is now the receiver, which is moving towards the source)

So, the frequency observed in the source frame is

f'=(\frac{334 m/s+28.7 m/s}{334 m/s-62.2 m/s})1110 Hz=1481.2 Hz

(d) 0.225 m

The wavelength of the wave is given by

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

where in this case we have

v = 334 m/s

f = 1481.2 Hz is the apparent in the source frame

So the wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{334 m/s}{1481.2 Hz}=0.225 m

Richard Julius once made a model plane that could travel a max speed of 110 m/s. Suppose the plane was held in a circular path b
hjlf

Answer:

85.8 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the length of the circular path, L the plane travels is

L = rθ where r = radius of path and θ = angle covered

Now,its speed , v = dL/dt = drθ/dt = rdθ/dt + θdr/dt

where dθ/dt = ω = angular speed = v'/r where v' = maximum speed of plane and r = radius of circular path

Now, from θ = θ₀ + ωt where θ₀ = 0 rad, ω = angular speed  and t = time,

θ = θ₀ + ωt = 0 + ωt = ωt

So, v = rdθ/dt + θdr/dt

v = rω + ωtdr/dt

v = (r + tdr/dt)ω

v = (r + tdr/dt)v'/r

v = v' + tv'/r(dr/dt)

v = v'[1 + t(dr/dt)/r]

Given that v' = 110 m/s, t = 33.0s, r = 120 m and dr/dt = rate at which line is shortened = -0.80 m/s (negative since it is decreasing)

So, v = 110 m/s[1 + 33.0 s(-0.80 m/s)/120 m]

v = 110 m/s[1 + 11.0 s(-0.80 m/s)/40 m]

v = 110 m/s[1 + 11.0 s(-0.02/s)]

v = 110 m/s[1 - 0.22]

v = 110 m/s(0.78)

v = 85.8 m/s

Nova, whose mass is 50kg drops 2 K, what is the amount of heat lost from Nova's body? (specific heat of the human body is 3470 J
Alex17521 [72]
Use the equation q=mc/\T, where q is the heat lost, m is mass, and /\T is the change in temperature, and c is the specific heat.
q=50kg(3470J/kg K)(2K)
q=<span>347000 J

Any other questions, just ask.
