A student says that the two terms speed and frequency of the wave refer to the same thing. What is your response?

Physics

Answer:

He is wrong!

Explanation:

Frequency refers to how many wave lengths pass in a second and speed is how fast the wave is traveling for example the speed of light goes really fast but has a mid-level frequency.

Hope this helps! ;-)

A string is stretched between a fixed support and a pulley a distance 111 cm apart. The tension on the string is controlled by a
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

88.8 m/s= Speed of wave propagation in the required mode.(3 loops)

Explanation:

When there are 3 loops.  

the total length = L = 3 λ /2

⇒ λ  = 2 L / 3 = 2 ( 1.11 ) / 3 = 0.74 m

Velocity = v = f λ = (120)(0.74) = 88.8 m/s

How many atoms are there in 3.4moles if helium ,show the calculation
prohojiy [21]
Answer: 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms
To count how many atoms in moles you need to know Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number dictate that for every mole there is 6.022140857 × 10^23 molecule/atoms.
Then 3.4 moles of helium will be 3.4x 6.022140857 x  10^23 atoms= 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms

A 20.0 kg crate sits at rest at the bottom of a 15.0-m-long ramp that is inclined at 34.0° above horizontal. A constant horizont
ankoles [38]

Answer:

987 joules, 3.01s

Explanation:

(A)

from the attached diagram

net force, Fnet, pulling the crate up the ramp is given by

Fnet = FcosФ - WsinФ - Fr

where FcosФ is the component of horizontal force 290N resolved parallel to the plane

WsinФ = mgsinФ = component of the weight of the crate resolved parallel to the plane

Fr = constant opposing frictional force

Fnet = 290cos34⁰ - 20 × 9.8 × sin34° - 65

Fnet = 240.421 - 109.602 - 65

Fnet = 65.82N

Work done on the crate up the ramp, W, is given by

W = Fnet × d (distance up the plane)

W = 65.819 × 15

W = 987.285 joules

W = 987 joules (to 3 significant Figures)

(B)

to calculate the time of travel up the ramp

we use the equation of motion

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where s = distance up the plane, 15m

u = Initial velocity of the crate, which is 0 for a body that is initially at rest

a = acceleration up the plane, given by

a = \frac{Fnet}{m}

where m = mass of the crate, 20 kg

now, a = \frac{65.819}{20} \\a = 3.291\frac{m^{2} }{s}

from, s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15 = 0*t + \frac{1}{2}* 3.291 * t^{2}

15 = 0 + 1.645t^{2}

15 = 1.645t^{2}

t = \sqrt{\frac{15}{1.645} }

t = 3.019

t = 3.01s (to 3 sig fig)
