Spiders may "tune" strands of their webs to give an enhanced response at frequencies corresponding to the frequencies at which d

esirable prey might struggle. Orb web silk has a typical diameter of 0.0020 mm, and spider silk has a density of 1300 kg/m3. To give a resonance at 200Hz to what tension must a spider adjust a 16cm long strand of silk?

Answer:

0.0000167283525619 N

Explanation:

\rho = Density of silk = 1300 kg/m³

d = Diameter = 0.002 mm

r = Radius = 0.001 mm

l = Length = 16 cm

f = Frequency = 200 Hz

Mass of the string is

m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho Al\\\Rightarrow m=1300\times \pi (0.001\times 10^{-3})^2\times 0.16\\\Rightarrow m=6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\ kg

Frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/l}}\\\Rightarrow T=4lf^2m\\\Rightarrow T=4\times 0.16\times 200^2\times 6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\\\Rightarrow T=0.0000167283525619\ N

The tension on the string is 0.0000167283525619 N

inna [77]

Answer:

0.025 m

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying Hook's law

F = ke................... Equation 1

Where F = Force, k = spring constant of the scale, e = maximum distance at which the spring will compress.

make e the subject of the equation

e = F/k....................... Equation 2

Given: F = 10 N, e = 395 N/m

Substitute these values into equation 2

e = 10/395

e = 0.025 m
