A 1.0 m string with a 5 g stopper on the end is whirled in a vertical circle. The speed of the stopper is 8 m/s at the top of th
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

A )

At the bottom of the circle , the potential energy of the stopper is converted into kinetic energy

1/2 m V² = mg x 2r + 1/2 mv²

m is mass of stopper , V is velocity at the bottom , r is radius of the circular path which is length of the string , v is velocity at the top

1/2  V² = g x 2r + 1/2 v²

 V² = g x 4r +  v²

 V² = 9.8 x 4 +  8²

V² = 103.2

V = 10.16 m/s

B )

If T be the tension at the top

Net downward force

= mg + T . This force provides centripetal force for the circular motion

mg +T = mv² / r

T =   mv²/r -mg

= m ( v²/r - g )

= .005 ( 8²/1 -g )

= .005 x 54.2

= .27 N .

C ) At the bottom

Net force = T  - mg , T is tension at the bottom , V is velocity at bottom

T-mg = mV²/r

T = m ( V²/r +g )

= .005 ( 10.16²/1 +9.8)

= .005 x 113

= .56 N .

Relationship between frequency, amplitude, wavelength and energy in a transverse wave.
liq [111]
In a transverse wave:
- Oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of energy travelling
- Frequency is the amount of complete waves passing a certain point in one second (measured in hertz, Hz)
- Wavelength is the distance from any point on one wave to the same point on the following wave
- The amplitude is the maximum displacement of the particles from their average position (and be measured from the horizontal mid-point of the wave to either the peak or trough)

There isn't always a defined relationship between these features. However, frequency × wavelength = velocity of the wave.
