Great experiment ! Everybody should try it if they can get the equipment.
It demonstrates a lot of things that are very hard to explain in words.
I hope the students remembered to tilt the axis of the globe. If they didn't,
and instead kept it straight up and down, then each city had pretty much
the same amount of bulb-light all the way around, and there were no seasons.
If the axis of the globe was tilted, then City-D had the least variation in
seasons. City-D is only 2° from the equator, so the sun is more direct
there all year around than it is at any of the others.
To answer the following questions for this specific problem:
a. 11.48 secs
b. Vp = a*t*3.6 =
3*11.48*3.6 = 124.0 km/h
<span>c. 9.1 secs. </span>
I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query about
and it will be able to help you.
Answer:
The transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.
Explanation:
let T = 2.96×10^4 N be the tension in in the steel cable, ρ = 7860 kg/m^3 is the density of the steel and A = 4.49×10^-3 m^2 be the cross-sectional area of the cable.
then, if V is the volume of the cable:
ρ = m/V
m = ρ×V
but V = A×L , where L is the length of the cable.
m = ρ×(A×L)
m/L = ρ×A
then the speed of the wave in the cable is given by:
v = √(T×L/m)
= √(T/A×ρ)
= √[2.96×10^4/(4.49×10^-3×7860)]
= 25.5 m/s
Therefore, the transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.
