A piano wire has a length of 81 cm and a mass of 2.0

choli [55]

<span>Frequency = 394 Hz
Length of the string L = 81 cm = 0.81 m
Mass of the string = 0.002 kg
Tension T = ?
Wave length of the string is two times the length.
n x lambda = 2L, we also have lambda = vt = v / f, t is time period and given n = 1.
Therefore L = v / 2f => v = 2fL
Deriving form force equation, force here is tension T so
v = squareroot of (TL/m) hence
2fL = squareroot of (TL/m) => 4 x f^2 x L^2 = (T x L) / m => T = 4 x f^2 x L x m
T = 4 x 0.81 x (394)^2 x 0.002 = 4 x 0.81 x 155236 x 0.002
T = 1005.9 N = 1.006 x 10^3 N</span>

Three particles are moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field and travel on circular paths (see the drawing). They have t

Vaselesa [24]

Explanation:

Radius of a charged particle is given by

r=mv / Bq

= k/ q

where k = m v / B is a constant.

i.e. more is the magnitude of charge, less is the radius. (inversely proportional)

From the diagram r_3 > r_2 > r_1 (more the curvature, less is the radius)

( although drawing is not given i am assuming the above order, however, one can change the order as per the diagram. The concept used remains the same)

therefore, q_1 > q_2 > q_3 .

A long-distance swimmer is able to swim through still water at 4.0 km/h. She wishes to try to swim from Port Angeles, Washington

Roman55 [17]

Let $\theta$ be the direction the swimmer must swim relative to east. Then her velocity relative to the water is

$\vec v_{S/W}=\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)$

The current has velocity vector (relative to the Earth)

$\vec v_{W/E}=\left(3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath$

The swimmer's resultant velocity (her velocity relative to the Earth) is then

$\vec v_{S/E}=\vec v_{S/W}+\vec v_{W/E}$

$\vec v_{S/E}=\left(\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath$

We want the resultant vector to be pointing straight north, which means its horizontal component must be 0:

$\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}=0\implies\cos\theta=-\dfrac{3.0}{4.0}\implies\theta\approx138.59^\circ$

which is approximately 41º west of north.

There is a distinction between average speed and the magnitude of average velocity. Give an example that illustrates the differe

Usimov [2.4K]

An example that illustrates the difference is the circular motion

Explanation:

Let's start by reminding the definition of the two quantities:

- Speed is a scalar quantity that tells "how fast" an object is moving, regardless of its direction of motion.

Speed can be calculate as:

$speed = \frac{d}{t}$

where:

d is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

- Velocity is instead a vector quantity, given by:

$velocity = \frac{d}{t}$

where;

d is the displacement of the object (displacement is a a vector connecting the initial position to the final position of motion)

t is the time taken

Since it is a vector, velocity has both a magnitude and a direction, therefore it also takes into account the direction of motion of the object.

For an object in motion in a straight line, speed and velocity are the same. However, this is not always the case.

In fact, an example of motion in which the two quantities are different is the circular motion. Consider for example the object making one complete revolution along the circle. Therefore, its average speed is the ratio between the length of the perimeter (the distance) divided by the time taken:

$speed = \frac{2\pi r}{t}$

where r is the radius of the circle.

However, the displacement of the object is zero (because the object returns to the starting point), and so the average velocity is also zero:

$velocity = \frac{0}{t}=0$
