The frequency of middle C on a string is
f = 261.6 Hz.

The given linear density is
ρ = 0.02 g/cm = (0.02 x 10⁻³ kg)/(10⁻² m)
   = 0.002 kg/m

The length of the string is L = 1 m.

Let T =  the tension in the string (N).
The velocity of the standing wave is
v= \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} }

In the fundamental mode, the wavelength, λ, is equal to the length, L.
That is
Because v = fλ, therefore
\sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} } =f \lambda = fL \\\\ \frac{T}{\rho} = (fL)^{2} \\\\ T = \rho (fL)^{2}

From given information, obtain
T = (0.002 kg/m)*(261.6 1/s)²*(1 m)²
   = 136.87 N

Answer: 136.9 N (nearest tenth)

scoray [572]

Answer:

read the explanation

Explanation:

Purchased electricity is fed into our TVs and is converted to light and sound.

Electricity goes into an electric bulb and is converted to visible light and heat energy.

Chemical Energy is converted to Electrical Energy (stove)

Chemical food energy is converted to Energy to Work (person running).

When you drink cold water, your body must expend metabolic energy in order to maintain normal body temperature (37° C) by warmi
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

7.72 Liters

Explanation:

normal body temperature = T_body =37° C

temperature of ice water = T_ice =0°c

specfic heat of water = c_{water} =4186J/kg.°C

if the person drink 1 liter of cold water mass of water is = m = 1.0kg

heat lost by body is Qwater =mc_{water} ΔT

                                           = mc{water} ( T_ice - T_body)

                                             = 1.0×4186× (0 -37)

                                             = -154.882 ×10^3 J

here negative sign indicates the energy lost by body in metabolic process energy expended due to brisk - hour long walk is Q_{walk} = 286 kilocalories

            = 286×4186J

so number of liters of ice water have to drink is

n×Q_{water} =Q_{walk}                                                                        n= Q_{walk}/ Q_{water}

= 286×4186J/154.882×10^3 J

 = 7.72 Liters
