Wave speed (m/s) = frequency (Hz) x wave length (m)
=0.2 x 100= 20m/s

Answer: The velocity of the wave is 20m/s

Explanation: The velocity of a wave can be obtained by the equation:

Velocity = wavelenght*frequency.

or v = λ*f

In this case, we know that: λ = 100 meters, f = 0.2Hz (where Hz means 1/s)

then, we have that the velocity of the wave is:

v = 100m*(0.2*1/s) = (100*0.2)m/s = 20m/s

Q7) A box sliding with a velocity of 5 m/s accelerates at 2 m/s^2. How

grigory [225]

Answer:

The box displacement after 6 seconds is 66 meters.

Explanation:

Let suppose that velocity given in statement represents the initial velocity of the box and, likewise, the box accelerates at constant rate. Then, the displacement of the object ( $\Delta s$ ), in meters, can be determined by the following expression:

$\Delta s = v_{o}\cdot t+\frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity, in meters per second.

$t$ - Time, in seconds.

$a$ - Acceleration, in meters per square second.

If we know that $v_{o} = 5\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $t = 6\,s$ and $a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then the box displacement after 6 seconds is:

$\Delta s = 66\,m$

The box displacement after 6 seconds is 66 meters.

A thin double convex glass lens with an index of 1.56 while surrounded by air has a 10 cm focal length. If it is placed under wa

bearhunter [10]

Explanation:

Formula which holds true for a leans with radii $R_{1}$ and $R_{2}$ and index refraction n is given as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

Since, the lens is immersed in liquid with index of refraction $n_{1}$ . Therefore, focal length obeys the following.

$\frac{1}{f_{1}} = \frac{n - n_{1}}{n_{1}} [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

$\frac{1}{f(n - 1)} = [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]$

and, $\frac{n_{1}}{f(n - n_{1})} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}$

or, $f_{1} = \frac{fn_{1}(n - 1)}{(n - n_{1})}$

$f_{w} = \frac{10 \times 1.33 \times (1.56 - 1)}{(1.56 - 1.33)}$

= 32.4 cm

Using thin lens equation, we will find the focal length as follows.

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s_{o}} + \frac{1}{s_{i}}$

Hence, image distance can be calculated as follows.

$\frac{1}{s_{i}} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{s_{o}} = \frac{s_{o} - f}{fs_{o}}$

$s_{i} = \frac{fs_{o}}{s_{o} - f}$

$s_{i} = \frac{32.4 \times 100}{100 - 32.4}$

= 47.9 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the focal length of the lens in water is 47.9 cm.

Copper exists in nature as two isotopes. The atomic masses and relative abundance of these isotopes is given in the table. What

Alona [7]

<span>The correct answer should be B) 63.55. That's because the most precise number is 63.546, but you would write 55 because 46 is rounded that way in the equation. The others are a bit higher, while E is a completely different element, Iodine. This isn't the most precise piece of data because in reality there would be a slight differentiation of +- 0,003u</span>

What is the SPEED of a ball that travels 120 m in 6s?

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

20m/second

Explanation:

The reason the answer is 20m/second is because to find the speed of the ball in this question you have to divide the distance over the time giving you the result of 20m/second

Assignment: Can you identify various forces and instances in which electrostatic and magnetic forces occur

serg [7]

Answer:

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion. It is the basic force responsible for such effects as the action of electric motors and the attraction of magnets for iron. Electric forces exist among stationary electric charges; both electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. The magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the other.
