Why are the wires twisted around each other in twisted pair cable?

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
5 0

The wires are twisted around each other in a twisted pair cable for the purpose of blocking off any external electromagnetic interference.

A twisted-pair cable is a form of cable system used for telecom services as well as most current wired networks. Twisted pairs are composed of two insulated copper wires that are been twisted together. The circuit is formed by a twisted pair of wires that may carry data. These pairs are twisted to prevent interference or noise caused by neighboring pairs.

Determine the density of a rectangular piece of concrete that measures 3.7 cm by 2.1 cm by 5.8 cm and has a mass of 43.8 grams.
Novay_Z [31]
It is customary to work in SI units.

Calculate the volume of the concrete.
V = 3.7*2.1*5.8 cm³ = 45.066 cm³ = 45.066 x 10 ⁻⁶ m³

The mass is  43.8 g = 43.8 x 10⁻³ kg

The density is mass/volume.
Density = (43.8 x 10⁻³ kg)/(45.066 x 10⁻⁶ m³) = 971.9 kg/m³

Answer: 971.9 kg/m³

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>

A system consists of a disk rotating on a frictionless axle and a piece of clay moving toward it, as shown in the figure above.
cestrela7 [59]

Explanation:

Forgive me If I am wrong, it's been a while since I've studied Torque.

The formula for the angular momentum is

momentum= I*w.

We can also write I*W as 1/2MR^2 * W so the extra mass coming from the block of clay would most likely cause the angular momentum to increase from the amount it was before.

The 6 strings on a guitar all have about the same length and are stretched with about the same tension.The highest string vibrat
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. d(low)=4d(high)

Explanation:

Frequency of a string can be written as;

f = v/2L

Where;

v = sound velocity

L = string length

Frequency can be further expanded to;

f = v/2L = (1/2L)√(T/u) ......1

Where;

m= mass,

u = linear density of string,

T = tension

p = density of string material

A = cross sectional area of string

d = string diameter

u = m/L .......2

m = pAL = p(πd^2)L/4 (since Area = (πd^2)/4)

f = (1/2L)√(T/u) = (1/2L)√(T/(m/L))

f = (1/2L)√(T/((p(πd^2)L/4)/L))

f = (1/2L)√(4T/pπd^2)

f = (1/L)(1/d)√(4T/pπ)

Since the length of the strings are the same, the frequency is inversely proportional to the string diameter.

f ~ 1/d

So, if

4f(low) = f(high)

Then,

d(low) = 4d(high)

An iron railroad rail is 700 ft long when the temperature is 30°C. What is its length when the temperature is – 10°C?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

699.67ft

Explanation:

We are given with,

  • α = 1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C
  • L₀ = 700 ft
  • ΔT = -10°C − 30°C = -40°C

Now, We have to find ΔL:

  • ΔL = (1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C) (700 ft) (-40°C)
  • ΔL = −0.336

Rounded to two significant figures, the change in length is −0.33ft.

<u>Therefore, the final length is approximately 700 ft − 0.33 ft = 699.67ft</u>.
