A `1000 m` long rod of density `10.0 xx 10^(4) kg//m^(3)` and having young's modulus `Y=10^(11) Pa`, is clamped at one end. It is hammered at the other free end as shown in the figure. The logitudinal pulse goes to right end, gets reflected and again returns to the left end. How much time (in sec) the pulse take to go back to initial point ?
.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2
Velocity of longitudinal `u=sqrt((Y)/(rho))=sqrt((10^(11))/(10xx10^(4)))=10^(3)ms^(-1)`
Required time `(2l)/(v)=(2xx1000)/(10^(3))=2s`.

A vessel contains two immiscible liquids of density rho_(1)=1000 kg//m^(3) and rho_(2)=1500kg//m^(3) . A solid block of volume V=10^(3)m^(3) and density d=800kg//m^(3) is tied to one end of a string and the outer end is tied to the bottom of the vessel as shown in figure. The block is immersed with two fifths of its volume in the liquid of lower density. The entire system is kept in an elevator which is moving upwards with an acceleration of a=g/2 . Find the tension in the string.

One end of a long string of linear mass density 8.0 xx 10^(-3) kg m^(-1) is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency 256Hz. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containing a mass of 90kg. The pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves at this end have negligible amplitude. At t=0, the left end (fork end) of the string x=0 has zero transverse displacement (y=0) and is moving along positive y-direction. The amplitude of the wave is 5.0 cm. Write down the transverse displacement y as function of x and t that describes the wave on the string.

Two narrow bores of diameters 3.00mm and 6.0mm are joined together to form a U-tube open at both ends. If the U-tube contains water, what is the difference in its levels in the two limbs of the tube?

A rod of length 1.05 m having negligible mass is supported at its ends by two wires of steel (wire A) and aluminium (wire B) of equal lengths as shown in figure.

At what point along the rod should a mass m be suspended in order to produce (a) equal stresses and (b) equal strains in both steel and aluminium wires.

A metallic rod of length 1m has one end free and other end rigidly clamped. Longitudinal stationary waves are set up in the rod in such a way that there are total six antinodes present along the rod.
