The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Length of the string, L = 100 cm</em>

<em />

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves is calculated as follows;

L = \frac{n \lambda}{2} \\\\n\lambda = 2L\\\\\lambda = \frac{2L}{n}

for first mode: n = 1

\lambda = \frac{2\times 100 \ cm}{1} \\\\\lambda = 200 \ cm

for second mode: n = 2

\lambda = \frac{2L}{2} = L = 100 \ cm

For the third mode: n = 3

\lambda = \frac{2L}{3} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{3} = 67 \ cm

For fourth mode: n = 4

\lambda = \frac{2L}{4} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{4} = 50  \ cm

Thus, we can conclude that, the wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The complete question is below:

A string of length 100 cm is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in a standing wave pattern. The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be:

A. 400 cm

B. 200 cm

C. 100 cm

D. 67 cm

E. 50 cm

¿Qué cantidad de calor absorbió una masa de 4 g de cinc al pasar de 20 °C a<br> 180 °C?
Alborosie

(amount of heat)Q = ? , (Mass) m= 4 g , ΔT = T f - T i = 180 c° - 20 °c = 160 °c ,

Ce = 0.093 cal/g. °c

Q = m C ΔT

Q = 4 g × 0.093 cal/g.c° × ( 180 °c- 20 °c )

Q= 4×0.093 × 160

Q = 59.52 cal

Betelgeuse is how many times larger than the sun
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Betelgeuse is one of the largest known stars and is probably at least the size of the orbits of Mars or Jupiter around the sun. That's a diameter about 700 times the size of the Sun or 600 million miles. For a star it has a rather low surface temperature (6000 F compared to the Sun's 10,000 F).

Earthquakes that originate beneath the ocean floor produce huge tidal waves called _____.
ololo11 [35]

Answer;

-Tsunami

Explanation;

-Tsunami  is a series of large ocean waves (or "wave train") of extremely long wavelength and period, usually generated when a gigantic body of water, such as an ocean, is suddenly displaced on a massive scale by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake occurring on or near the sea floor or a volcanic eruption.

-After a sudden displacement of a large water volume by seismic activity (earthquake), the ocean floor is raised or dropped and large tsunami waves can be formed by gravitational forces.

A gyroscope flywheel of radius 3.25 cm is accelerated from rest at 11.6 rad/s2 until its angular speed is 1820 rev/min. (a) What
kati45 [8]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

           radius (r) = 3.25 cm,    \alpha = 11.6 rad/s^{2}

Now, we will calculate the tangential acceleration as follows.

          a_{tangential} = \alpha \times r

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

         a_{tangential} = \alpha \times r

                      = 11.6 rad/s^{2} \times 3.25 cm

                      = 37.7 rad cm/s^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the tangential acceleration of a point on the rim of the flywheel during this spin-up process is 37.7 rad cm/s^{2}.

the smallest unit in physics is the Planet length.wr need to know constant (h) the speed of light (c) and Newton's Gravitational
fgiga [73]

Yes, that's right.  It's the 'Planck' length, not the 'Planet' length.

You could easily find these with a web search.  But in gratitude
for the bountiful 5 points, I've saved you the trouble. 
AND guess what !   By doing that, I learned something, and
you didn't.

Speed of light (c):                 299,792,458 meters per second

Gravitational constant (G):   6.67 x 10⁻¹¹  newton-meter²/kilogram²

Planck's Konstant (h):           6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ joule-second

Planck Length:                      1.6 x 10⁻³⁵ meter
                                            (about 10⁻²⁰ the size of a proton)

Planck Time:                          10⁻⁴³ second
                                             (about the time it takes to travel
                                              a Planck Length at the speed of light)
