Suppose you observed the equation for a traveling wave to be y(x, t) = A cos(kx − ????t), where its amplitude of oscillations was 0.15 m, its wavelength was two meters, and the period was 2/15 s. If a point on the wave at a specific time has a displacement of 0.12 m, what is the transverse speed of that point?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15m/s

Explanation:

The equation for a traveling wave as expressed as y(x, t) = A cos(kx − [tex]\omega[/tex]t) where An is the amplitude f oscillation, [tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular velocity and x is the horizontal displacement and y is the vertical displacement.

From the formula; [tex]k =\frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} \ and \ \omega = 2 \pi f[/tex] where;

[tex]\lambda \ is\ the \ wavelength \ and\ f \ is\ the\ frequency[/tex]

Before we can get the transverse speed, we need to get the frequency and the wavelength.

frequency = 1/period

Given period = 2/15 s

Frequency = [tex]\frac{1}{(2/15)}[/tex]

frequency = 1 * 15/2

frequency f = 15/2 Hertz

Given wavelength [tex]\lambda[/tex] = 2m

Transverse speed [tex]v = f \lambda[/tex]

[tex]v = 15/2 * 2\\\\v = 30/2\\\\v = 15m/s[/tex]

Hence, the transverse speed at that point is  15m/s

A concrete slab shown in Figure 5 is being lifted by using three cables connected to the slab at points A, B and C. The slab is in the xy plane. The vertical force required to lift this slab is 60 kN (F 60 kN). Find the tensions in cables DA, DB and DC (show all your workings that you do to find these)

Answers

Answer:

Fad = 28.8 kN

Fbd = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 28.1 kN

Explanation:

First, find the length of each cable.

AD = √((2 m)² + (0.5 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

AD = √10.5 m

AD ≈ 3.24 m

BD = √((1.5 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

BD = √9.5 m

BD ≈ 3.08 m

CD = √((1 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

CD = √8.25 m

CD ≈ 2.87 m

Next, use similar triangles to find the x, y, and z components of each tension force.

Fadx = 2/3.24 Fad = 0.617 Fad

Fady = 0.5/3.24 Fad = 0.154 Fad

Fadz = 2.5/3.24 Fad = 0.772 Fad

Fbdx = 1.5/3.08 Fbd = 0.487 Fbd

Fbdy = 1/3.08 Fbd = 0.324 Fbd

Fbdz = 2.5 / 3.08 Fbd = 0.811 Fbd

Fcdx = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdy = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdz = 2.5/2.87 Fcd = 0.870 Fcd

Now sum the forces in the x, y, and z directions:

∑Fx = ma

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fy = ma

-0.154 Fad − 0.324 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fz = ma

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

To solve this system of equations algebraically, start by subtracting the first two equations, eliminating Fcd.

-0.463 Fad + 0.811 Fbd = 0

0.811 Fbd = 0.463 Fad

Fbd = 0.571 Fad

Substitute into either of the first two equations:

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 (0.571 Fad) + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.617 Fad + 0.278 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.339 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

0.348 Fcd = 0.339 Fad

Fcd = 0.975 Fad

Now substituting into the third equation:

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 (0.571 Fad) − 0.870 (0.975 Fad) = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.463 Fad − 0.849 Fad = 0

60 kN − 2.083 Fad = 0

Fad = 28.8 kN

Solving for the other two tension forces:

Fbd = 0.571 Fad = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 0.975 Fad = 28.1 kN

A 1000 kg car experiences a net force of 9500 N while slowing down from 30 m/s to 16 m/s. How far does it travel while slowing down?

Answers

Answer:

33.89 m

Explanation:

We must first obtain the acceleration of the car from;

F=ma

Where

F= force= 9500 N

m= mass of the car= 1000kg

a= acceleration

a= F/m= 9500/1000

a= 9.5 m/s^2

From;

V^2=u^2 + 2as

Where;

V= final velocity

u= initial velocity

s= distance covered

a= acceleration

s= v^2 -u^2/2a

s= (30)^2 -(16)^2/2×9.5

s= 900 - 256/19

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

The distance is 33.89 m

The first step is to calculate the acceleration

F= ma

force= 9500N

mass= 1000 kg

9500= 1000 × a

a= 9500/1000

= 9.5 m/s

v²= u² + 2as

30²= 16² + 2(9.5)(s)

900= 256 + 19s

900-256= 19s

644= 19s

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

Hence the distance traveled by the car is 33.89 m

an ideal gas is confined to a container with adjustable volume. the number of moles, n, and temperature, t, are constant. by what factor will the volume change if pressure increase by a factor of 5.1

Answers

Answer:

The volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both moles and temperature remain constant, we can use the Boyle's law that relates the volume and pressure as an inversely proportional relationship:

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]

Thus, since the pressure increases by a factor of 5.1 (statement), we have:

[tex]P_2=5.1P_1[/tex]

Thus, the final volume is:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} =\frac{P_1V_1}{5.1P_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{10}{51}V_1[/tex]

It means that the volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

A vertical spring stretches 3.8 cm when a 13-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 20 g that oscillates in simple harmonic motion. Calculate the period of motion.

Answers

Answer:

The period of motion is 0.5 second.

Explanation:

Given;

extension of the spring, x = 3.8 cm = 0.038 m

mass of the object, m = 13 g = 0.013 kg

Determine the force constant of the spring, k;

F = kx

k = F / x

k = mg / x

k = (0.013 x 9.8) / 0.038

k = 3.353 N/m

When the object is replaced with a block of mass 20 g, the period of motion is calculated as;

[tex]T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\\\T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.02}{3.353} } \\\\T = 0.5 \ second[/tex]

Consider a bus traveling to the west (negative x direction) that begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which statement concerning its acceleration in the x direction is correct

Answers

Complete question is;

Consider a bus traveling to the west (-x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which statement concerning its acceleration in the x direction is correct

a) The bus is decelerating and its acceleration is positive.

b) The bus is decelerating, and its acceleration is negative.

c) The acceleration is zero.

d) A statement cannot be made using the information given.

Answer:

Option A - bus is decelerating and acceleration is positive.

Explanation:

We are told that the bus is travelling in (negative x direction) and begins to slow down. Since the bus is slowing down, it means that the bus is undergoing a negative acceleration which is called deceleration.

Thus, the bus is decelerating.

Since it is moving in the negative x-axis, it means acceleration is now; -(-a) which gives +a.

Thus, bus is decelerating and acceleration is positive.

Determine the next possible thickness of the film (in nm) that will provide the proper destructive interference. The index of refraction of the glass is 1.58 and the index of refraction of the film material is 1.48.

Answers

Answer:

I know the answer

Explanation:

We want to choose the film thickness such that destructive interference occurs between the light reflected from the air-film interface (call it wave 1) and from the film-lens interface (call it wave 2). For destructive interference to occur, the phase difference between the two waves must be an odd multiple of half-wavelengths.

You can think of the phases of the two waves as second hands on a clock; as the light travels, the hands tick-tock around the clock. Consider the clocks on the two waves in question. As both waves travel to the air-film interface, their clocks both tick-tock the same time-no phase difference. When wave 1 is reflected from the air-film boundary, its clock is set forward 30 seconds; i.e., if the hand was pointing toward 12, it's now pointing toward 6. It's set forward because the index of refraction of air is smaller than that of the film.

Now wave 1 pauses while wave two goes into and out of the film. The clock on wave 2 continues to tick as it travels in the film-tick, tock, tick, tock.... Clock 2 is set forward 30 seconds when it hits the film-lens interface because the index of refraction of the film is smaller than that of the lens. Then as it travels back through the film, its clock still continues ticking. When wave 2 gets back to the air-film interface, the two waves continue side by side, both their clocks ticking; there is no change in phase as they continue on their merry way.

So, to recap, since both clocks were shifted forward at the two different interfaces, there was no net phase shift due to reflection. There was also no phase shift as the waves travelled into and out from the air-film interface. The only phase shift occured as clock 2 ticked inside the film.

Call the thickness of the film t. Then the total distance travelled by wave 2 inside the film is 2t, if we assume the light entered pretty much normal to the interface. This total distance should equal to half the wavelength of the light in the film (for the minimum condition; it could also be 3/2, 5/2, etc., but that wouldn't be the minimum thickness) since the hand of the clock makes one revolution for each distance of one wavelength the wave travels (right?).

=8.5 km/h east

The concept relative speed is used when two or more bodies moving with some speed are considered. The relative speed of woman to the boat is 8.5 km/h east. The correct option is B.

What is relative speed?

The relative speed of two bodies is defined as the sum of their speeds if they are moving in the opposite direction and it is the difference of their speeds if they are moving in the same direction.

The speed of the moving body with respect to the stationary body is known as the relative speed. The term relative means in comparison to. The relative speed is a scalar quantity.

Here both the boat and women are travelling in the same direction. So the relative speed is given as:

Relative speed = 10 - 1.5 = 8.5 km / h

Therefore the relative speed is 8.5 km/h east.

Thus the correct option is B.

Design a voltage divider to provide the following approximate voltages with respect to ground using a 30 V source: 8.18 V, 14.7 V, and 24.6 V. The current drain on the source must be limited to no more than 1 mA. The number of resistors, their values, and their wattage ratings must be specified. A schematic showing the circuit arrangement and resistor placement must be provided

Answers

Answer:

R₁ = 14.7 10³ Ω , R₂ = 8.18 10³ Ω ,  R₃ = 1.72 10³ Ω ,  R₄ = 5.4 10³ Ω    1/8 W resistor

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use a series circuit since the sum of the voltage on each resin is equal to the source voltage (V = 30 V)

Therefore we build a circuit with 4 resistors in series, in such a way that

   V = i R

let the voltage

1st resistance

         V = i R

         R₁ = V / i

         R₁ = 14.7 / 1 10⁻³

         R₁ = 14.7 10³ Ω

power is

        P = V i

        P = 14.7 1 10⁻³

        P = 14.7 10⁻³ W = 0.0147 W

a resistance of ⅛ W is indicated

2nd resistance

          R₂ = 8.18 / 1 10⁻³

          R₂ = 8.18 10³ Ω

Power

          P = 8.18 1 10⁻³

          P = 0.00818W

a 1/8 W resistor

3rd resistance

this resistance is calculated in such a way that

          V₁ + V₂ + V₃ = 24.6

          V₃ = 24.6 - V₁ -V₂

          V₃ = 24.6 - 14.7 - 8.18

          V₃ = 1.72 V

          R₃ = 1.72 / 1 10⁻³

          R₃ = 1.72 10³ Ω

           

power

          P = Vi

          P = 1.72 10⁻³

          P = 0.00172 W

a resistance of ⅛ W

To obtain the voltage of 24.6 we use this three resistors together

4th resistance

The value of this resistance is calculated so that the sum of all the voltages reaches the source voltage

           30 = V₁ + V₂ + V₃ + V₄

           V₄ = 30 - V₁ -V₂ -V₃

           V₄ = 30 -14.7 - 8.18 - 1.72

           V₄ = 5.4 V

          R₄ = 5.4 / 1 10⁻³

          R₄ = 5.4 10³ Ω

Power

         P = V i

         P = 5.4 10⁻³

         P = 0.0054 W

⅛ W resistance

The values ​​of these resistance are commercially

Let's check the consumption of the circuit

  R_total = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄

  R_total = (14.7 + 8.18 + 1.72 + 5.4) 10³

   R_total = 30 10³

the current circulating in the circuit is

     i = V / R_total

     i = 30/30 10³

     i = 1 10⁻³ A

therefore it is within the order requirement.

The skin and structure of the balloon has a mass of 960kg . Neglect the buoyant force on the cargo volume itself. Determine the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift.

Answers

Answer:

602.27 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift is shown below:-

Volume of helium inside the ballon= (4 ÷ 3) × π × r^3

= 1406.19 m3

Mass the balloon can carry = volume × (density of air-density of helium)

= 1406.19 × (1.29-0.179)

= 1562.27 kg

Mass of cargo it can carry = Mass it can carry - Mass of structure

= 1562.27 - 960

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

[tex]\frac{1}{R_{t} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{R}[/tex] +

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

[tex]\frac{2V}{R}[/tex] ÷  [tex]\frac{V}{2R}[/tex] =  

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

The angle of depression is congruent to the angle of elevation and can be explained as angle below horizontal in which the person observing an object must view for him/her to view object's that are lower than him/her.

In angle of depression, there is assumption that object is closer to the person observing it, so there is parallel horizontal for both observing and object been observed.

g As observed on earth, a certain type of bacteria is known to double in number every 24 hours. Two cultures of these bacteria are prepared, each consisting initially of one bacterium. One culture is left on earth and the other placed on a rocket that travels at a speed of 0.893c relative to the earth. At a time when the earthbound culture has grown to 256 bacteria, how many bacteria are in the culture on the rocket, according to an earth-based observer

Answers

Answer:

86.4 hrs

Explanation:

The amount of bacteria is initially 1

It doubles every 24 hrs.

After first 24 hrs, the amount = 2

After next 24 hrs = 4

After next 24 hrs = 8

After next 24 hrs = 16

After next 24 hrs = 32

After next 24 hrs = 64

After next 24 hrs = 128

After next 24 hrs = 256

Total time taken to reach 256 = 24 x 8 = 192 hrs

For the bacteria culture on the rocket that travels at a speed of 0.893c relative to the earth, this time is contracted by the relationship

t = t'(1 - ¥^2)^0.5

Where t is the contracted time =?

t' is the time on earth

¥ = v/c

Where v is the speed of the rocket

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.893c

¥ = 0.893

Substituting, we have

t = 192 x (1 - 0.893^2)^0.5

t = 192 x 0.2025^0.5

t = 192 x 0.45 = 86.4 hrs

A city of Punjab has a 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day. What is the probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days?

Answers

Answer: 0.0617

Explanation:

Given: The probability of wet weather on any given day in a city of Punjab : p=15%=0.15

Let X be a binomial variable that represents the number of days having wet weather.

Binomial probability formula : [tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^x[/tex], where n= total outcomes, p = probability of success in each outcomes.

Here, n= 7 ( 1 week = 7 days)

The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days:

[tex]P(X=3)^=\ ^7C_3(0.15)^3(1-0.15)^{7-3}\\\\=\dfrac{7!}{3!(7-3)!}(0.15)^3(0.85)^4\\\\=\dfrac{7\times6\times5}{3\times2}\times 0.003375\times0.52200625\approx0.0617[/tex]

Hence, the required probability =0.0617

"When red light in vacuum is incident at the Brewster angle on a certain glass slab, the angle of refraction is"

Answers

Complete Question

When red light in vacuum is incident at the Brewster angle on a certain glass slab,  the angle of refraction is [tex]36.0 ^o[/tex] . What are

(a) the index of refraction of the glass and

(b) the Brewster angle?

Answer:

a

   [tex]n_r = 1.376[/tex]

b

  [tex]i = 54^o[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The angle of refraction is  [tex]r = 36.0 ^o[/tex]

   

Generally according Brewster law

              [tex]i + r = 90[/tex]

Here [tex]i[/tex] is the angle of incidence which is also the Brewster angle

So

              [tex]i + 36.0 = 90[/tex]

              [tex]i = 54^o[/tex]

Now the refractive index is mathematically represented as

           [tex]n_r = tan (i)[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]n_r = tan (54)[/tex]

           [tex]n_r = 1.376[/tex]

What is the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at a point that is a distance 2R above the surface of the Earth, where R is the radius of the Earth

Answers

Answer:

g' = g/9 = 1.09 m/s²

Explanation:

The magnitude of free fall acceleration at the surface of earth is given by the following formula:

g = GM/R²   ----- equation 1

where,

g = free fall acceleration

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

M = Mass of Earth

R = Distance between the center of earth and the object

So, in our case,

R = R + 2 R = 3 R

Therefore,

g' = GM/(3R)²

g' = (1/9) GM/R²

using equation 1:

g' = g/9

g' = (9.8 m/s)/9

g' = 1.09 m/s²

Answer:

The magnitude of the free-fall acceleration [tex]g_h = 1.09m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Surface of earth,

[tex]g = \frac{GM}{R^2}\\\\g = 9.8m/s^2[/tex]

free fall acceleration at height h,

[tex]g_h = \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

where

G = gravitational constant

R = Radius of earth

M = mass of earth

therefore,

[tex]\frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}}{\frac{GM}{R^2}}\\\\ \frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}\\\\g_h = g\frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

Where height h = 2R

[tex]g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(R+2R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(3R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(9R^2}\\\\g_h = 1.09m/s^2[/tex]

2. The glass core of an optical fiber has an index of refraction 1.60. The index of refraction of the cladding is 1.48. What is the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber?

Answers

Answer:

We know that the maximum angle that a light ray can wake with the wall of the core is equipment to the minimum angle with the normal of the core that will give rise in total internal reflection. so using Snell's law the angle is subtracted from 90° to get the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber.

So using

n1sinစ1. = n2sinစ2

1.6sin(x1) = 1.48sin(90),

But sin(90)=1

1.6sin(စ1) = 1.48,

sin(စ1) = 1.48/1.6

စ = 68°

Explanation:

Answer:

i = 67.66⁰

Explanation:

Using the Snell's law formula to solve this question which states that the ratio of the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media. This constant is known as the refractive index for the given pair of media. Mathematically,

n = sin(i)/sin(r) where;

i is the angle of incidence

r is the angle of refraction.

n is the refractive index.

Given the refractive index of the optical fibre n₁ = 1.60 and that of cladding n₂ = 1.48

n₂/n₁ = sin(i)/sin(r)

The light ray can make with the wall of the core when its angle of refraction is 90⁰. The angle of incidence at this maximum point is known as the critical angle.

On substitution:

1.48/1.60 = sin(i)/sin90

1.48/1.60  = sin(i)/1

sin(i) = 1.48/1.60

sin(i) = 0.925

i = sin⁻¹0.925

i = 67.66⁰

Hence the maximum angle a light ray can make with the wall of the core if it is to remain inside the fiber is 67.66⁰.
