Answer:

v^2=\frac{T}{M}

where v = transverse wave velocity, T = tension in the string, M = mass per unit length.

Explanation:

Dimensional analysis is where you just look at the units and see how they fit within each other.

In this case, all relationships are made using the MLT comparisons, where M stands for Mass, L stands for Length, and T stands for time.

For example, for velocity, we know the SI unit for velocity is [ms⁻¹] which is L¹T⁻¹, we can do the same thing for tension = [N = Kgms⁻²] = M¹L¹S⁻², and for the mass per unit length which we can think of as [Kgm⁻¹] = M¹L⁻¹.

If you play around a little with the powers, you can find a relationship:

v^2=\frac{T}{M}

since:

[L¹T⁻¹]² = L²T⁻² = M¹L¹T⁻² ÷ M¹L⁻¹ = M¹⁻¹L¹⁻⁽⁻¹⁾T⁻² = M⁰L²T⁻² = L²T⁻²

a ball of mass 0.80 kg moving at a speed of 2.5 m/s along a straight line collided with a mass 2.5 kg which was initially statio
Likurg_2 [28]

The speed of the 0.8 kg ball immediately after collision is 0.625 m/s in opposite direction to the stationary ball.

The given parameters;

  • mass of the ball, m₁ = 0.8 kg
  • speed of the ball, u₁ = 2.5 m/s
  • mass of the object at rest, m₂ = 2.5 kg
  • final velocity of the object at rest, v₂ = 1 m/s

Let the final velocity of the 0.8 kg ball immediately after collision = v₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁  +  m₂v₂

(0.8 x 2.5) + (2.5 x 0) = (0.8)v₁  +  2.5(1)

2 = 2.5 + (0.8)v₁

-0.5 = (0.8)v₁

v_1 = \frac{-0.5}{0.8} \\\\v_1 = -0.625 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the 0.8 kg ball immediately after collision is 0.625 m/s in opposite direction to the stationary ball.

A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 N. If there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag
strojnjashka [21]
Force equals mass*distance
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N

30 = 10a
30/10 = a
3 = a

The wagon's acceleration is 3 m/s^2
