The "c) percent efficiency" could not be used to find the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane. There are two formulae that could be used to determine the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane which stated as MA = Length/rise and Wout=Win. MA is the mechanical advantage, Wout is the output force, Win is the input force, and "rise" is the height of the inclined plane<span>.</span>

Two mechanical waves that have positive displacements from the equilibrium position meet and coincide. What kind of
erica [24]

When two mechanical waves that have positive displacements from the equilibrium position meet and coincide, a constructive interference occurs.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Considering the principle of superposition of waves; the resultant amplitude of an output wave due to interference of two or more waves at any point is given by individual addition of their amplitudes at that point. Two waves with positive displacements refer to the fact that crest of the both the waves are on the same side of displacement axis, either both are positive or both are negative, similarly with their troughs.

If such two waves with their crest on crest meet at any point, by superposition principle. their individual amplitude gets added up and hence the resultant wave after interference is greater in amplitude that both the individual waves. This is termed as a constructive interference. Destructive interference on the other hand is a condition when one of the two waves has a positive displacement and other has a negative displacement (a condition of one’s crest on other’s trough); resulting in amplitude subtraction.

A convex lens of focal length 35 cm produces a magnified image 2.5 times the size of the object. What is the object distance if
Zanzabum

Answer:

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35

m = Magnification = 2.5

m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow 2.5=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow v=-2.5 u

Lens equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-2.5u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{3}{5u}\\\Rightarrow u=21\ cm

v=-2.5\times 21=-52.5\ cm

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

A viola string with a fundamental frequency of D4 (293 Hz) is generally tuned using a tension of 49.0 N. However, just before a
Alborosie

Answer:

Explanation:

For fundamental frequency in a vibrating string , the formula is

n = 1 / 2L  x  √ ( T /m₁ )

n is frequency , L is length , T is tension and m₁ is mass per unit length .

For first string ,

293 =  1 / 2L  x  √ ( 49 N  /m₁ )

For second string , let mass per unit length be m₂ .

196 =  1 / 2L  x  √ ( 49 N  /m₂ ) ------ ( 1 )

To bring its frequency back to previous one let tension be T

293  =  1 / 2L  x  √ ( T  /m₂ ) ------- ( 2 )

Dividing

293 / 196 = √ ( T  /49  )

1.4948 = √ ( T  /49  )

2.2344 = T  /49

T = 109.48 N .
