Answer:

v = 2.51 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

1.00sin62.7 = nsin48.1

n = 1.19

v = c/n = 3.00e8/1.19 = 2.51e8 m/s

Answer:

The tension is 75.22 Newtons

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave on a rope is:

v=\sqrt{\frac{TL}{M}} (1)

With T the tension, L the length of the string and M its mass.

Another more general expression for the velocity of a wave is the product of the wavelength (λ) and the frequency (f) of the wave:

v= \lambda f (2)

We can equate expression (1) and (2):

\sqrt{\frac{TL}{M}}=\lambda f

Solving for T

T= \frac{M(\lambda f)^2}{L} (3)

For this expression we already know M, f, and L. And indirectly we already know λ too. On a string fixed at its extremes we have standing waves ant the equation of the wavelength in function the number of the harmonic N_{harmonic} is:

\lambda_{harmonic}=\frac{2l}{N_{harmonic}}

It's is important to note that in our case L the length of the string is different from l the distance between the pin and fret to produce a Concert A, so for the first harmonic:

\lambda_{1}=\frac{2(0.425m)}{1}=0.85 m

We can now find T on (3) using all the values we have:

T= \frac{2.42\times10^{-3}(0.85* 440)^2}{0.45}

T=75.22 N

An isolated charged point particle produces an electric field with magnitude E at a point 2 m away. At a point 1 m from the part
guajiro [1.7K]

Explanation:

The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k is electrostatic constant

if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{kq}{(2)^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{4}\ .....(1)

If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :

E_2=\dfrac{kq}{r_2^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{1}\ ....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kq}{4}}{kq}\\\\\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\E_2=4\times E_1

So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Work = 6912 joules

Explanation:

Non-conservative forces are dissipative forces such as friction or air resistance. These forces take energy away from the system as the system progresses, energy that you can't get back. These forces are path dependent; therefore it matters where the object starts and stops.

Total mass = 40 + 8 = 48kg

Initial speed u= 6 m/s

Final speed v = 3*initial

Final speed v = 3* 6 = 18 m/s

Distance s = 15

Acceleration a is?

V² = U² + 2aS

18² = 6² + 2a*15

324 = 36 + 30a

324-36= 30a

288 = 30a

288/30 = a

9.6= a

Force = mass* acceleration

Force = 48*9.6

Force = 460.8N

Work = force*distance

Work = 460.8*15

Work = 6912 joules
