A 0.325 g wire is stretched between two points 57.7 cm apart. The tension in the wire is 650 N. Find the frequency of first harm
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

f = 931.1 Hz

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the wire, m = 0.325 g

Length of the stretch, L = 57.7 cm = 0.577 m

Tension in the wire, T = 650 N

Frequency for the first harmonic = ?

we know,

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

μ is the mass per unit length

μ = 0.325 x 10⁻³/ 0.577

μ = 0.563 x 10⁻³ Kg/m

now,

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{650}{0.563\times 10^{-3}}}

   v = 1074.49 m/s

The wire is fixed at both ends. Nodes occur at fixed ends.

For First harmonic when there is a node at each end and the longest possible wavelength will have condition

          λ=2 L

          λ=2 x 0.577 = 1.154 m

we now,

       v = f λ

      f = \dfrac{v}{\lambda}

      f = \dfrac{1074.49}{1.154}

             f = 931.1 Hz

The frequency for first harmonic is equal to f = 931.1 Hz

How can i find the acceleration?(rope and grinder have no weight) *** sorry for my english
Finger [1]
The main formula to be used here is

                       Force = (mass) x (acceleration).

We'll get to work in just a second.  But first, I must confess to you that I see
two things happening here, and I only know how to handle one of them.  So
my answer will be incomplete, but I believe it will be more reliable than the
first answer that was previously offered here.

On the <u>right</u> side ... where the 2 kg and the 3 kg are hanging over the same
pulley, those weights are not balanced, so the 3 kg will pull the 2kg down, with
some acceleration.  I don't know what to do with that, because . . .

At the <em>same time</em>, both of those will be pulled <u>up</u> by the 10 kg on the other side
of the upper pulley.

I think I can handle the 10 kg, and work out the acceleration that IT has.

Let's look at only the forces on the 10 kg:

-- The force of gravity is pulling it down, with the whatever the weight of 10 kg is.

-- At the same time, the rope is pulling it UP, with whatever the weight of 5 kg is ...
that's the weight of the two smaller blocks on the other end of the rope. 

So, the net force on the 10 kg is the weight of (10 - 5) = 5 kg, downward.

The weight of 5 kg is (mass) x (gravity) = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons.

The acceleration of 10 kg, with 49 newtons of force on it, is

     Acceleration = (force) / (mass) = 49/10 = <em>4.9 meters per second²</em>

Newton’s third law in football?
trapecia [35]
Newtons third law of motion applies to football as when the ball is thrown, force is applied to the football thrown forward and also force back to the player. Therefore it states that every action has a reaction. The player does not get a huge force back from throwing the football due to the player having a bigger mass than the football being thrown.

In short, when the football is throw, there is a reaction with the ball and the player accordingly with the force put into the ball.

Explain how forces of attraction and repulsion exist within an atom
Stels [109]

Answer:

Oppositely charged particles attract each other, while like particles repel one another. Electrons are kept in the orbit around the nucleus by the electromagnetic force, because the nucleus in the center of the atom is positively charged and attracts the negatively charged electrons.

Forces that are equal in strength and opposite indirection are
Otrada [13]
Hey there! My name is Christy and I'm gladly to help you out!


The three main forces that stop moving objects are friction, gravity and wind resistance. Equal forces acting inopposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forcesacting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the netforce is zero.

Hope this helped!
