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

Which asteroid has more potential energy an asteroid that is closest to the sun or an asteroid that is farthest away from the su
Sloan [31]

When the comet is closest to the Sun,
it has its maximum kinetic energy
and minimum gravitational potential energy. When the comet is far away from the Sun, it has maximum gravitational potential energy and minimal kinetic energy. It's faster when it's close because the Sun's gravity is pulling the comet closer. The opposite for when it gets farther away

Your friend decides to generate electrical power by rotating a 100,000 turn coil of wire around an axis in the plane of the coil
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

a) I=35mA

b) P=1.73W

Explanation:

a) The max emf obtained in a rotating coil of N turns is given by:

emf_{max}=NBA\omega

where N is the number of turns in the coil, B is the magnitude of the magnetic field, A is the area and w is the angular velocity of the coil.

By calculating A and replacing in the formula (1G=10^{-4}T) we get:

A=\pi r^2 =\pi(0.23m)^2=0.16m^2

emf_{max}=(100000)(0.3*10^{-4}T)(0.166m^2)(140\frac{rev}{s})=69.72V

Finally, the peak current is given by:

I=\frac{emf}{R}=\frac{69.72V}{1400\Omega}=49.8mA

b)

we have that

I_{rms}=\frac{I}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{0.0498A}{\sqrt{2}}=0.035A

P_{rms}=I^2{rms}R=(0.035A)^2(1400\Omega)=1.73W

hope this helps!!

What has a larger capacitance, an aluminum sphere with a 10 cm diameter or one with a 100 cm diameter? Question 16 options: 10 c
creativ13 [48]

\boxed{\sf C=\dfrac{Q}{V}}

But

\boxed{\sf \Delta V_{R_2\to R_1}={\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}dV=-{\displaystyle{\int}^{R_1}_{R_2}}\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}dR}

  • Hence higher the radius lower the voltage
  • Lower the voltage higher the capacitance .

what is the acceleration of a car that slows down from 60m/s to 40 m/s during a period of 10 seconds?
algol [13]

The acceleration of the car is stated as -2 m/s², while the deceleration of the car is termed as 2 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by any object in order of decrease in the speed is termed as deceleration. In other words , negative acceleration or acceleration acting in opposite direction to stop the motion of any object is termed as deceleration. The magnitude of acceleration and deceleration is same only the direction is completely opposite to each other. So the negative sign will be obtained for acceleration value of any object whose velocity slows down from initial velocity.

Here , the initial velocity was 60 m/s and the final velocity is slowed down to 40 m/s in time 10 s.

So acceleration = (Final velocity - Initial velocty)/Time

Acceleration = (40-60)/10 = -20/10 = -2 m/s².

Thus, the acceleration of the car is stated as -2 m/s², while the deceleration of the car is termed as 2 m/s².
