(1) The wavelength of the wave is 1.57 m.

(2) The velocity of the wave is 30 m/s .

(3) The frequency of the wave is 19.10 Hz and the time period of the wave is 0.052 s.

Note: The given equation seems to be incomplete. Most probably the equation was y=25sin(120t-4x). And the standard system of units (i.e. kg, m, s) is used.

Wavelength: The distance between the consecutive crest or trough of a wave is called the wavelength of a wave.

The equation of a plane wave oscillating in the y direction and traveling in the x direction is given by the equation,

y=A sin(ωt-kx)

where y is the displacement along the y direction, A is the amplitude of the wave, ω is the angular frequency, t is the time, x is the displacement along the x direction, and k is the wave constant.

The given equation is,

y=25sin(120t-4x)

Comparing this equation with the above equation, following values are obtained.

k= 4 m^(-1)

ω =120 rad/s

A=25

The wavelength λ is given by the formula,

λ=2π/k

Here k = 4 m^(-1), so

λ=2π/4

λ=1.57 m.

Velocity: The velocity of a wave is the product of the frequency and the wavelength.

The velocity v is given by the formula,

v=ω*λ/2π

Here ω=120 rad/s and λ=1.57 m, so

v=120*1.57/2π

v=30 m/s

Frequency: The number of oscillations completed in one second is called the frequency of a wave.

The formula of the frequency is,

f=v/λ

Here v=30 m/s and λ=1.57 m, so

f=30/1.57

f=19.10 Hz

Time period: The time taken to complete one cycle of oscillation is called the time period of oscillation.

The formula to calculate the time period T is,

T=2π/ω

Here ω=120 rad/s, so

T=2π/120

T=0.052 s.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

a = 0.701 m / s²

Explanation:

As the game is spinning the acceleration is centripetal

a = v² /r

The park system after a small period of acceleration goes at a constant speed, for which we can use the relations of the uniform motion

v = d / t

the distance of a circle is

d = 2π r

we substitute

a = (2π r / t) ² / r

a = 4 pi² r / t²

let's calculate

a = 4 pi² 12 / 26²

a = 0.701 m / s²

Tom [10]

Answer:

The value of new value of angular speed of merry go round. $\omega_{2}$ = 0.96 $\frac{rad}{sec}$

Explanation:

Given data

r = 1.4 m

Moment of inertia $I_{1}$ = 265 kg - $m^{2}$

$N_{1} =$ 11 RPM

$\omega_{1} = \frac{2 \pi N}{60}$

$\omega_{1} = \frac{2 \pi (11)}{60}$

$\omega_{1}$ = 1.15 $\frac{rad}{sec}$

From conservation of momentum principal

$I_{1} \omega_{1} = I_{2} \omega_{2}$ ------- (1)

$I_{2} = m r^{2} + 265$

$I_{2} = 27 (1.4)^{2} + 265$

$I_{2} = 317.92 \ kg m^{2}$

Put all the values in equation (1)

265 × 1.15 = 317.92 × $\omega_{2}$

$\omega_{2}$ = 0.96 $\frac{rad}{sec}$

This is the value of new value of angular speed of merry go round.

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics

spayn [35]

Answer:

$v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$

Explanation:

This is a projectile motion problem. We will first separate the motion into x- and y-components, apply the equations of kinematics separately, then we will combine them to find the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is in the x-direction, and there is no acceleration in the x-direction.

On the other hand, there no initial velocity in the y-component, so the arrow is basically in free-fall.

Applying the equations of kinematics in the x-direction gives

$x - x_0 = v_{x_0} t + \frac{1}{2}a_x t^2\\63 \times 10^{-3} = v_0t + 0\\t = \frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}$

For the y-direction gives

$v_y = v_{y_0} + a_y t\\v_y = 0 -9.8t\\v_y = -9.8t$

Combining both equation yields the y_component of the final velocity

$v_y = -9.8(\frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}) = -\frac{0.61}{v_0}$

Since we know the angle between the x- and y-components of the final velocity, which is 180° - 2.8° = 177.2°, we can calculate the initial velocity.

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\\\tan(177.2^\circ) = -0.0489 = \frac{v_y}{v_0} = \frac{-0.61/v_0}{v_0} = -\frac{0.61}{v_0^2}\\v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$

alexdok [17]

Answer:

t=67.7s

Explanation:

From this question we know that:

Vo = 6m/s

a = 1.8 m/s2

D = 1500m

And we also know that:

$X=V_{o}*t + \frac{a*t^{2}}{2}$ Replacing the known values:

$1500=6t+0.9*t^{2}$ Solving for t we get 2 possible answers:

t1 = -44.3s and t2 = 67.7s Since negative time represents an instant before the beginning of the movement, t1 is discarded. So, the final answer is:

t = 67.7s
