A stretched string has a mass per unit length of 5.00 g/cm and a tension of 10.0 N. A sinusoidal wave on this string has an ampl

itude of 0.12 mm and a frequency of 100 Hz and is traveling in the negative direction of an x axis. If the wave equation is of the form y(x, t) = ym sin(kx ± ωt), what are (a) ym, (b) k, (c) ω, and (d) the correct choice of sign in front of ω?

Answer:

0.12 mm ; 140.50 rad/m ; 628.32 rad/sec ; +

Explanation:

Given the wave equation of the form :

y(x, t) = ym sin(kx ± ωt)

Mas per unit length (u) = 5 g/cm = (5÷1000)kg / 0.01m) = 0.005kg/0.01m = 0.5kg/m

Tension, T = 10 N

Amplitude, A = 0.12 mm

Frequency, F = 100 Hz

Comparing with the general wave equation :

y = Asin(kx ± ωt)

A = amplitude = ym = 0.12 mm

2.) k = 2π / λ

Recall :

v = fλ

v = sqrt(T/u) = sqrt(10/0.5) = sqrt(20) = 4.472

λ = v/ f = 4.472 / 100 = 0.04472

Hence,

k = (2 * π) / 0.04472

k = 140.50 rad/m

3.) Angular frequency, ω

ω = 2πf = 2 * 3.14 * 100 = 628.32 rad/sec

4.) sign is +ve

Direction of wave propagation as given is in the negative x axis

Gravity: The force due to gravity is F=mg where g=9.80 m/s². A. Find the force due to gravity on a 41.63-kg object. B. The force
olga_2 [115]
A. F=mg
= 41.63kg x 9.8m/s²
= 407.974
= 408N (3 significant figure)
B. F=mg
632N= y x 9.8m/s²
y= 632 ÷ 9.8
y = 64.48
y= 64.5kg (3 significant figure)

A diverging lens has a focal length of 18.0 cm. An insect is placed 7.00 cm in front of the lens. What is the magnification
musickatia [10]

Diverging lens=concave lens

The image would be after the first focal point but before the lens and it will be smaller than the object. Look at my picture for reference. Please let me know if this helped you!
