Transverse waves carry molecules at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels. Within a cycle, molecules move from their normal position to the highest position, back through the normal position to the lowest point, and then back to the normal position. The molecules retain their horizontal positions while vibrating vertically. Amplitude is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave. Wavelength can be represented as the distance between any two molecules in phase with each other, such as the two nearest molecules at the crests of the wave.

Longitudinal waves carry molecules parallel to the direction in which the wave travels. Within a cycle, a molecule travels in the same direction as the wave (from normal position to its most distant point on one side of its normal position), changes direction, moves back through its normal position to the opposite side of its normal position at a point that corresponds, and then returns to its normal position. The molecules don’t all move at the same time; some remain stationary as others go through a vibrating motion. Compressions and rarefactions occur here. Amplitude is measured parallel to the direction of the wave. Wavelength may be represented as the distance between the two nearest molecules that didn’t vibrate, the two nearest molecules at maximum compression, or the two nearest molecules at maximum rarefaction.

f = 1⁄T

f = 1⁄0.03

f = 33. 3 Hz

The first wave has a frequency of 33.3 Hz:

f1 = 1⁄T1

f1 = 1⁄0.03

f1 = 33. 3 Hz

The second wave has a frequency of 4 Hz. f2 = 1⁄T2

f2 = 1⁄1⁄4

f2 = 1 ÷ 1⁄4

f2 = 1 × 4⁄1

f2 = 1⁄1 × 4⁄1

f2 = 4 Hz

Therefore, the first wave has a higher frequency.

v = I⁄T

v= 4.5⁄0.007

v = 642.9 m/s

a solenoid is created by wrapping a l = 90 m long wire around a hollow tube of diameter d = 4.5 cm. the wire diameter is d = 0.9 mm. the solenoid wire is then connected to a power supply so that a current of i = 9 a flows through the wire.

randomized variablesl = 90 m

d = 4.5 cm

d = 0.9 mm

i = 9 a

write an expression for the number of turns, n, in the solenoid. you do not need to take into account the diameter of the wire in this calculation.

calculate the number of turns, n, in the solenoid.

write an expression for the length of the solenoid (l2) in terms of the diameter of the hollow tube d.

calculate the length of the solenoid (l2) in meters.

calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid in teslas.

Ok i am attempting to my niece attach a galvanized wire (like a tether for a dog) at the corner of two fences, making a tightwire if you will and we drilled a hole in a softball and she hits it. the ? and problem is that we can not get the wire taunt enough where it doesnt sag after hitting the ball once, and the wire sags and wobbbles. its a 15 ft rubber covered galvanized wire and one can adjust the length of the placing of the wire by having it make the corner of 2 fences become a it can be adjusted, however, with all our human strength and pliers we could not make it taunt as possible. is there anything other that attaching it to a car to do this. sorry abt the length but it would mean the world to my niece if i could solve this came up with the entire idea herself, and she is 14 and paid for the wire and did as much work as i did drilling a hole through a softball wide enough for attaching piece at each end of the wire that clips on to the fence. . any ideas welcome if serious. but awesome if it is a fact. much obliged. bucky bukowski buckman

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 710 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 23° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.19. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. a) what is the block's initial mechanical energy? b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
