When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

The appropriate answer is c. geysers. A geysers a hot water fountain that spouts intermittently with great force, frequently accompanied by a thunderous roar. The world famous Old Faithful is located in Yellowstone National Park. This geyser erupts every 65 min sending a jet of water almost 60 meters into the air. Sinkholes and caves are formed by the action of groundwater on carbonate rocks which causes them to colapse and former these structures.

You and a partner sit on the floor and stretch out a coiled spring to a length of 7.2 meters. You shake the coil so you
vekshin1

Answer:

Approximately 5.9\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (assuming that the partner is holding the other end of the coil stationary.)

Explanation:

In a standing wave, an antinode is a point that moves with maximal amplitude, while a node is a point that does not move at all. There is an antinode between every two adjacent nodes. Likewise, there is a node between every two adjacent antinodes.

The side of the spring that is being shaken moving with maximal amplitude. Hence, that point on this spring would also be an antinode. In contrast, the side of the spring that is held still (does not move at all) would be a node.

There would be a node between:

  • the antinode at the end of the spring that is being shaken, and
  • the antinode between the two ends of this spring.

Overall, the nodes and antinodes on this spring would be:

  • node at the end that is being held still,
  • antinode (as mentioned in the question),
  • node (inferred, not mentioned in the question), and
  • antinode at the end that is being shaken.

The distance between two adjacent nodes is equal to one-half (that is, (1/2)) the wavelength of the wave. The distance between a node and an adjacent antinode is one-quarter (that is, (1/4)) of the wavelength of the wave.

Thus, if the wavelength of the wave in this question is \lambda, the length of this spring would be:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, \lambda + \frac{1}{4}\, \lambda = \frac{3}{4}\, \lambda.

The question states that the length of this coiled spring is 7.2\; {\rm m}. In other words, (3/4) \, \lambda = 7.2\; {\rm m}. The wavelength of this wave would be (7.2\; {\rm m}) / (3/4) = 9.6\; {\rm m}.

The frequency f of this wave is the number of cycles in unit time:

\begin{aligned} f &= \frac{10}{16.3\; {\rm s}} \approx 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Hence, the speed v of this wave would be:

\begin{aligned} v &= \lambda\, f \\ &=9.6\; {\rm m} \times 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}} \\ &\approx 5.9\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.
