GO In Fig. 16-43, an aluminum wire, of length L1 = 60.0 cm, cross-sectional area 1.00 × 10−2 cm2, and density 2.60 g/cm3 is joined to a steel wire, of density 7.80 g/cm3 and the same cross-sectional area. The compound wire, loaded with a block of mass m = 10.0 kg, is arranged so that the distance L2 from the joint to the supporting pulley is 86.6 cm. Transverse waves are set up on the wire by an external source of variable frequency; a node is located at the pulley. (a) Find the lowest frequency that generates a standing wave having the joint as one of the nodes. (b) How many nodes are observed at this frequency?

- K:23)arrow_forwardAn electrical contact material is produced by first making a porous tungsten compact that weighs 135 g. Liquid silver is introduced into the compact: careful measurement indicates that 105 g of silver is infiltrated. The final density of the composite is 13.7 g/cm³. Calculate the volume fraction of the original compact that is interconnected porosity and the volume fraction that is closed porosity (no silver infiltration). The densities of tungsten and silver are pw = 19.254 g/cm and Pag = 10.49 K g/cm³ (Enter your answers to three significant figures.) finterconnected fclosed=arrow_forward700 KN 2.5 m A 2.5-m length of a steel pipe of 300-mm outer diameter and 15-mm wall thickness is used as a column to carry a 700-kN centric axial load.
