Answer:

the speed of the wave on the string is 43.16 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

first harmonic of the wave formed by the string, f₀ = 26 Hz

length of the string, L = 0.83 m

The wavelength for first harmonic of the wave is calculated as;

L = N ----> N

L = λ₀/2

λ₀ = 2L

The speed of the wave on the string is calculated as follows;

v = f₀λ₀

v = f₀ x 2L

v = 26 x 2 x 0.83

v = 43.16 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the wave on the string is 43.16 m/s

A 600g toy train completes 10 laps of its circular track in 1 min 20s. If the radius of the track is 1.2 m, Find the centripetal
Lynna [10]

Wow !  This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.

The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is

                          (speed-squared)  /  (radius of the circle)  .

Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.

We know the radius of the track.  We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out.  That's what we
need to do first.

Speed  =  (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).

Distance = 10 laps of the track.   Well how far is that ? ? ?

1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) =  2.4π  meters

10 laps =  24π  meters.

Time = 1 minute 20 seconds  =  80 seconds

The trains speed is  (distance) / (time)

                               =  (24π meters) / (80 seconds)

                               =        0.3 π  meters/second .

NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.

                                 <span> (speed)²  /  (radius)

                           =    (0.3π m/s)²  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π m²/s²)  /  (1.2 meters)

                           =    (0.09π  /  1.2)   m/s²

                           =          0.236  m/s²  .        (rounded)

If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...

Well,       Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .

We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force.       </span>

What is the force per unit area at this point acting normal to the surface with unit nor- Side View √√ mal vector n = (1/ 2)ex +
Mumz [18]

Complete Question:

Given \sigma = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right] at a point. What is the force per unit area at this point acting normal to the surface with\b n = (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z   ? Are there any shear stresses acting on this surface?

Answer:

Force per unit area, \sigma_n = 28 MPa

There are shear stresses acting on the surface since \tau \neq 0

Explanation:

\sigma = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right]

equation of the normal, \b n = (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z

\b n = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\end{array}\right]

Traction vector on n, T_n = \sigma \b n

T_n =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\end{array}\right]

T_n = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{27}{\sqrt{33} }\end{array}\right]

T_n = \frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z

To get the Force per unit area acting normal to the surface, find the dot product of the traction vector and the normal.

\sigma_n = T_n . \b n

\sigma \b n = (\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z) . ((1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + 0 \b  e_y +(1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z)\\\\\sigma \b n = 28 MPa

If the shear stress, \tau, is calculated and it is not equal to zero, this means there are shear stresses.

\tau = T_n  - \sigma_n \b n

\tau =  [\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z] - 28( (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z)\\\\\tau =  [\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z] - [ (28/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (28/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z]\\\\\tau =  \frac{-5}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{5}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z

\tau = \sqrt{(-5/\sqrt{2})^2  + (27/\sqrt{2})^2 + (5/\sqrt{2})^2} \\\\ \tau = 19.74 MPa

Since \tau \neq 0, there are shear stresses acting on the surface.
