The speed of a 16cm wave with a period of 8 seconds is 2cm/s

<h3>How to determine the speed</h3>

Using the formula;

Speed = distance ÷ time

Distance = 16cm

time = 8 seconds

Substitute into the formula

Speed = 16 ÷ 8

Speed = 2 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of a 16cm wave with a period of 8 seconds is 2cm/s

What is the inverse square law and how does it relate to gravity?

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Inverse Square Law Newton proposed the Inverse Square Law. The effect of gravity (and also on forces such as sunlight) works like this. If say we have a half-mass Earth, it would produce a gravity of not half but a quarter (the square of 2).

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;

v is the final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given

u = 9m/s

v = 0m/s

t = 6.4s

Required

acceleration due to gravity g

Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.

v = u+(-g)t

0 = 9-6.4g

-9 = -6.4g

6.4g = 9

divide both sides by 6.4

6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4

g = 1.40625m/s²

Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 1.40625m/s²

Answer:

Part A:

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

Explanation:

Given Data:

v=20m/s

Time =t=12 hours

In Secs:

Time=12*60*60=43200 secs

Solution:

Part A:

Distance = Speed**Time

Distance=v*t

Distance= 20*43200

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE= Energy Required-Kinetic Energy of swans

Energy Required to move= Power Required*time

Energy Required to move=200*43200=8640000 Joules

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E\ of\ Swans=\frac{1}{2} *10*(20)^2=2000\ Joules$

Energy Used=ΔE=8640000 -2000

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

Fraction of Mass used=Δm/m

For This first calculate fraction of energy used:

Fraction of energy=ΔE/Energy required to move

ΔE is calculated in part B

Fraction of energy=8638000/8640000

Fraction of energy=0.99977

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Now, the relation between energies ratio and masses is:

$\frac{\triangle E}{E}=\frac{\triangle m}{2m}v^2$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{v^2} *\frac{\triangle E}{E}\\\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{20^2} *0.99977$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$
