A concave mirror is an example of curved mirrors. So that the appropriate answer to the given question is option D. The rays will cross at the focal point.

A concave mirror is a type of mirror in which its inner part is the reflecting surface, while its outer part is the back of the mirror.  This mirror reflects all parallel rays close to the principal axis to a point of convergence. It can also be referred to as the converging mirror.

In this type of mirror, all rays of light parallel to the principal axis of the mirror after reflection will cross at the focal point.

Therefore, the required answer to the given question is option D. i.e The rays will cross at the focal point.

Find the fundamental frequency and the next three frequencies that could cause standing-wave patterns on a string that is 30.0 m
maksim [4K]

Answer:

0.786 Hz, 1.572 Hz, 2.358 Hz, 3.144 Hz

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency of a standing wave on a string is given by

f=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

where

L is the length of the string

T is the tension in the string

\mu is the mass per unit length

For the string in the problem,

L = 30.0 m

\mu=9.00\cdot 10^{-3} kg/m

T = 20.0 N

Substituting into the equation, we find the fundamental frequency:

f=\frac{1}{2(30.0)}\sqrt{\frac{20.0}{(9.00\cdot 10^{-3}}}=0.786 Hz

The next frequencies (harmonics) are given by

f_n = nf

with n being an integer number and f being the fundamental frequency.

So we get:

f_2 = 2 (0.786 Hz)=1.572 Hz

f_3 = 3 (0.786 Hz)=2.358 Hz

f_4 = 4 (0.786 Hz)=3.144 Hz

A solid circular shaft and a tubular shaft, both with the same outer radius of c=co = 0.550 in , are being considered for a part
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The power for circular shaft is 7.315 hp and tubular shaft is 6.667 hp

Explanation:

<u>Polar moment of Inertia</u>

(I_p)s = \frac{\pi(0.55)4}2

      = 0.14374 in 4

<u>Maximum sustainable torque on the solid circular shaft</u>

T_{max} = T_{allow} \frac{I_p}{r}

         =(14 \times 10^3) \times (\frac{0.14374}{0.55})

         = 3658.836 lb.in

         = \frac{3658.836}{12} lb.ft

        = 304.9 lb.ft

<u>Maximum sustainable torque on the tubular shaft</u>

T_{max} = T_{allow}( \frac{Ip}{r})

          = (14 \times10^3) \times ( \frac{0.13101}{0.55})

          = 3334.8 lb.in

          = (\frac{3334.8}{12} ) lb.ft

          = 277.9 lb.ft

<u>Maximum sustainable power in the solid circular shaft</u>

P_{max} = 2 \pi f_T

          = 2\pi(2.1) \times 304.9

          = 4023.061 lb. ft/s

          = (\frac{4023.061}{550}) hp

          = 7.315 hp

<u>Maximum sustainable power in the tubular shaft</u>

P _{max,t} = 2\pi f_T

            = 2\pi(2.1) \times 277.9

            = 3666.804 lb.ft /s

            = (\frac{3666.804}{550})hp

            = 6.667 hp
