Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through space at the speed of light. This energy has an electric field and a magnetic field associated with it, and has wave-like properties. You could also call radiation “electromagnetic waves”.

A cable is 100-m long and has a cross-sectional area of 1.0 mm2. A 1000-N force is applied to stretch the cable. Young's modulus
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1 m

Explanation:

L = 100 m

A = 1 mm^2 = 1 x 10^-6 m^2

Y = 1 x 10^11 N/m^2

F = 1000 N

Let the cable stretch be ΔL.

By the formula of Young's modulus

Y=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Delta L}

\Delta L=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Y}

\Delta L=\frac{1000\times 100}{10^{-6}\times10^{11}}

ΔL = 1 m

Thus, the cable stretches by 1 m.

Find the wavelength in meters for a transverse mechanical wave with an amplitude of 10 cm and a radian frequency of 20π rad/s if
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Amplitude = 10 cm

Radial frequency \omega = 20\pi\ rad/s

Bulk modulus = 40 MPa

Density = 1000 kg/m³

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave in the medium

Using formula of velocity

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{\rho}}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{40\times10^{6}}{10^3}}

v=200\ m/s

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

\lambda =\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{v\times2\pi}{\omega}

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{200\times2\pi}{20\pi}

\lambda=20\ m

Hence, The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.
