Two strings with linear densities of 5 g/m are stretched over pulleys, adjusted to have vibrating lengths of 0.50 m, and attache

d to hanging blocks. The block attached to string 1 has a mass of 20 kg and the block attached to string 2 has a mass of M. Listeners hear a beat frequency of 2 Hz when string 1 is excited at its fundamental frequency and string 2 is excited at its third harmonic. What is one possible value for mass M

Answer:

2.18 kg

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave in a stretched string f = n/2L√(T/μ) where n = harmonic number, L = length of string, T = tension = mg where m = mass of object on string and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and μ = linear density of string.

For string 1, its fundamental frequency f  is when n = 1. So,

f = 1/2L√(T/μ) =  1/2L√(mg/μ)

Now for string 1, L = 0.50 m, m = 20 kg and μ = 5 g/m = 0.005 kg/m

substituting the values of the variables into f, we have

f = 1/2L√(mg/μ)

f = 1/2 × 0.50 m√(20 kg × 9.8 m/s²/0.005 kg/m)

f = 1/1 m√(196 kgm/s²/0.005 kg/m)

f = 1/1 m√(39200 m²/s²)

f = 1/1 m × 197.99 m/s

f = 197.99 /s

f = 197.99 Hz

f ≅ 198 Hz

For string 2, at its third harmonic frequency f'  is when n = 3. So,

f' = 3/2L√(T/μ) =  3/2L√(mg/μ)

Now for string 2, L = 0.50 m, m = M kg and μ = 5 g/m = 0.005 kg/m

substituting the values of the variables into f, we have

f' = 3/2L√(Mg/μ)

f' = 3/2 × 0.50 m√(M × 9.8 m/s²/0.005 kg/m)

f' = 3/1 m√(M1960 m²/s²kg)

f' = 3/1 m√M√(1960 m²/s²kg)

f' = 3/1 m √M × 44.27 m/s√kg

f' = 132.81√M/s√kg

f' = 132.81√M Hz/√kg

Since the frequency of the beat heard is 2 Hz,

f - f' = 2 Hz

So, 198 Hz - 132.81√M Hz/√kg = 2 Hz

132.81√M Hz/√kg = 198 Hz - 2 Hz

132.81√M Hz/√kg = 196 Hz

√M Hz/√kg = 196 Hz/138.81 Hz

√M/√kg = 1.476

squaring both sides,

[√M/√kg] = (1.476)²

M/kg = 2.178

M = 2.178 kg

M ≅ 2.18 kg

A man jogs at a speed of 1.6 m/s. His dog waits 1.8 s and then takes off running at a speed of 3 m/s to catch the man. How far w
inessss [21]

Answer:

The dog catches up with the man 6.1714m later.

Explanation:

The first thing to take into account is the speed formula. It is v=\frac{d}{t}, where v is speed, d is distance and t is time. From this formula, we can get the distance formula by finding d, it is d=v\cdot t

Now, the distance equation for the man would be:

d_{man}=v_{man}\cdot t=1.6\cdot t

The distance equation for the dog would be obtained by the same way with just a little detail. The dog takes off running 1.8s after the man did. So, in the equation we must subtract 1.8 from t.

d_{dog}=v_{dog}\cdot (t-1.8)=3\cdot (t-1.8)

For a better understanding, at t=1.8 the dog must be in d=0. Let's verify:

d_{dog}=v_{dog}\cdot (1.8-1.8)=3\cdot (0)=0

Now, for finding how far they have each traveled when the dog catches up with the man we must match the equations of each one.

d_{man}=d_{dog}

1.6\cdot t=3\cdot (t-1.8)

1.6\cdot t=3\cdot t-5.4

1.4\cdot t=5.4

t=\frac{5.4}{1.4}

t=3.8571s

The result obtained previously means that the dog catches up with the man 3.8571s after the man started running.

That value is used in the man's distance equation.

d_{man}=1.6\cdot t=1.6\cdot (3.8571)

d_{man}=6.1714m

Finally, the dog catches up with the man 6.1714m later.

Digiron [165]

F equals 3N with respect to the circle's center, moving in the same direction as the centripetal acceleration.

<h3>How much centripetal force is there in a centrifuge?</h3>

Centripetal force is the force that pushes an item in the direction of its center of curvature. It is fundamental to how a centrifuge operates.

<h3>On a roller coaster, what is centripetal force?</h3>

An item travelling in a circle is pushed inward toward what is known as the center of rotation, which is essentially what a roller coaster accomplishes when it travels through a loop. The force that maintains an object moving along a curved route is this pull toward the center, or centripetal force.
