How are both electromagnetic and mechanical waves used when people communicate with each other?

Answers

Answer 1
Unlike mechanical waves, which require matter, electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space, as well as through liquids, solids, and gases. There are many similarities between light waves and mechanical waves. They can both be measured by their amplitude, wavelength, and frequency.

g 2. In a laboratory experiment on standing waves a string 3.0 ft long is attached to the prong of an electrically driven tuning fork which vibrates perpendicular to the length of the string at a frequency of 60 Hz. The weight (not mass) of the string is 0.096 lb. a) [5 pts] What tension must the string be under (weights are attached to the other end) if it is to vibrate in four loops

Answers

Answer:

The tension in string will be "3.62 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Length of string:

l = 3 ft

or,

 = 0.9144 m

frequency,

f = 60 Hz

Weight,

= 0.096 lb

or,

= 0.0435 kgm/s²

Now,

The mass will be:

= [tex]\frac{0.0435}{9.8}[/tex]

= [tex]0.0044 \ kg[/tex]

As we know,

⇒  [tex]\lambda=\frac{2L}{n}[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     [tex]=\frac{2\times 0.9144}{4}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=0.4572 \ m[/tex]

or,

⇒  [tex]v=f \lambda[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=0.4572\times 60[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=27.432 \ m/s[/tex]

Now,

⇒  [tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]

or,

⇒  [tex]T=\frac{m}{l}\times v^2[/tex]

On putting the above given values, we get

⇒      [tex]=\frac{0.0044}{0.9144}\times (27.432)^2[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=\frac{752.51\times 0.0044}{0.9144}[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=3.62 \ N[/tex]

What is the centripetal force for a roller coaster if the mass is 10 kg and the normal force is 25 N?

Answers

Answer:

Fc = 123 Newton

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

[tex] Fnet = Fapp + Fg[/tex]

Where;

Fnet is the net force.

Fapp is the applied force.

Fg is the force due to gravitation.

Given the following data;

Normal force = 25N

Mass = 10kg

To find the centripetal force;

From the net force, we have the following formula;

Fc = N + mg

Where;

Fc is the centripetal force.

N is the normal force.

mg is the the weight of the object.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Fc = 25 + 10(9.8)

Fc = 25 + 98

Fc = 123 Newton

A film of oil lies on wet pavement. The refractive index of the oil exceeds that of the water. The film has the minimum nonzero thickness such that it appears dark due to destructive interference when viewed in visible light with wavelength 678 nm in vacuum. Assuming that the visible spectrum extends from 380 to 750 nm, what is the longest visible wavelength (in vacuum) for which the film will appear bright due to constructive interference

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

For destructive interference , the condition is

2μt = nλ

2μt = n x 678

For constructive interference , the condition is

2μt = (2n+1)λ₁ /2

n x 678 = (2n+1)λ₁ /2

λ₁ = 1356 n / ( 2n + 1 )

λ₁ = 1356  / ( 2 + 1/n )

For longest wavelength , denominator should be smallest or n should be largest . The longest value of n is infinity so

λ₁ = 1356  /  2

= 678 nm .

In a Young's double-slit experiment the separation distance y between the second-order bright fringe and the central bright fringe on a flat screen is 0.0176 m, when the light has a wavelength of 425 nm. Assume that the angles are small enough so that is approximately equal to . Find the separation y when the light has a wavelength of 614 nm.

Answers

Answer:

Y = 0.0254 m = 25.4 mm

Explanation:

The formula for the fringe spacing in Young's Double-slit experiment is given by the following formula:

[tex]Y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}[/tex]

where,

Y = fringe spacing = 0.0176 m

λ = wavelength = 425 nm = 4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m

L = Distance between screen and slits

d = slit separation

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{0.0176\ m}{4.25\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m} = \frac{L}{d}\\\\\frac{L}{d} = 41411.76[/tex]

Now, for:

λ = 614 nm = 6.14 x 10⁻⁷ m

[tex]Y = (6.14\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(41411.76)\\[/tex]

Y = 0.0254 m = 25.4 mm

Suppose a 118kg watermelon is held 5m above the ground before sliding along a frictionless ramp to the ground. How high above the ground is the watermelon at the moment it's kinetic energy is 4,610J

Answers

This question involves the concepts of kinetic energy, potential energy, and the law of conservation of energy.

The watermelon is "1.02 m" above the ground.

The total energy of the watermelon can be found by its potential energy at the highest point:

Total Energy = mgh

where,

m = mass = 118 kgg = 9.81 m/s²h = height = 5 m

Therefore,

Total Energy = (118 kg)(9.81 m/s²)(5 m)

Total Energy = 5787.9 J

LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

Now, according to the law of conservation of energy, at the given point:

Total Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy

5787.9 J = 4610 J + mgh'

[tex]h'=\frac{5787.9\ J-4610\ J}{(118\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)}[/tex]

h' = 1.02 m

Learning Goal: To understand the concept of moment of inertia and how it depends on mass, radius, and mass distribution.
In rigid-body rotational dynamics, the role analogous to the mass of a body (when one is considering translational motion) is played by the body's moment of inertia. For this reason, conceptual understanding of the motion of a rigid body requires some understanding of moments of inertia. This problem should help you develop such an understanding.
The moment of inertia of a body about some specified axis is I = cmr^2, where c is a dimensionless constant, m is the mass of the body, and r is the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation. Therefore, if you have two similarly shaped objects of the same size but with one twice as massive as the other, the more massive object should have a moment of inertia twice that of the less massive one. Furthermore, if you have two similarly shaped objects of the same mass, but one has twice the size of the other, the larger object should have a moment of inertia that is four times that of the smaller one.
Two spherical shells have their mass uniformly distrubuted over the spherical surface. One of the shells has a diameter of 2 meters and a mass of 1 kilogram. The other shell has a diameter of 1 meter. What must the mass m of the 1-meter shell be for both shells to have the same moment of inertia about their centers of mass?

Answers

Answer:

 m₂ = 4 kg

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is defined by

         I = ∫ r² dm

for bodies with high symmetry it is tabulated, for a spherical shell

        I = 2/3 m r²

in this case the first sphere has a radius of r₁ = 2m and a mass of m₁ = 1 kg, the second sphere has a radius r₂ = 1m.

They ask what is the masses of the second spherical shell so that the moment of inertia of the two is the same.

        I₁ = ⅔ m₁ r₁²

        I₂ = ⅔ m₂ r₂²

They ask that the two moments have been equal

        I₁ = I₂

        ⅔ m₁ r₁² = ⅔ m₂ r₂²

         m₂ = (r₁ / r₂) ² m₁

let's calculate

         m₂ = (2/1) ² 1

         m₂ = 4 kg

An inventor claims to have developed a power cycle capable of delivering a net work output of 400 kJ for an energy input by heat transfer of 1200 kJ. The system undergoing the cycle receives heat from a source of 550K and rejects heat to a sink of 350K. Determine if this is a valid claim.

Answers

Answer: Valid claim

Explanation:

Given

Work output is [tex]W=400\ kJ[/tex]

Work input is [tex]Q=1200\ kJ[/tex]

The temperature of the source [tex]T_h=550\ K[/tex]

The temperature of the sink is [tex]T_l=350\ K[/tex]

Efficiency is given by

[tex]\eta =\dfrac{\text{W}}{\text{Q}}\times 100[/tex]

Insert the values

[tex]\Rightarrow \eta=\dfrac{400}{1200}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \eta=\dfrac{100}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow \eta=33.3\%[/tex]

For ideal cycle it is

[tex]\Rightarrow \eta=\dfrac{T_h-T_l}{T_l}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \eta=\dfrac{550-350}{550}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \eta=36.36\%[/tex]

The efficiency of the cycle is less than the ideal situation, therefore, it is valid claim.

Answer:

a) KE max = 3.632 * 10^{-19}

b) v = 6.31 * 10^5   m/s

c) Lambda = 195 nm

Explanation:

a) Work done is given by equation  

W = V * q = change in kinetic energy = Final KE – Initial KE

Substituting the given values, we get –  

V * 1.6*10^{-19} =0 - Initial KE

KE max = 2.27 * 1.6*10^{-19} = 3.632 * 10^{-19}

b) As we know KE = 0.5 mv^{2}

Substituting the given values, we get –  

3.632 * 10^{-19} = 0.5 * (9.11 * 10^{-31}) v^2

v = 6.31 * 10^5   m/s

c) Incident energy = W + K max

Substituting the given values we get  

hc/lambda = 4.08 * 1.6 * 10^{-19} J + 3.632 * 10^{-19} J

6.626 *10^{-34} * 3*10^8/lambda = 4.08 * 1.6 * 10^{-19} J + 3.632 * 10^{-19} J
