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

A meter stick balances at the 50.0-cm mark. If a mass of 50.0 g is placed at the 90.0-cm mark, the stick balances at the 61.3-cm

Airida [17]

Answer:

126.99115 g

Explanation:

50 g at 90 cm

Stick balances at 61.3 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

$mgl_1=Mgl_2\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{ml_1}{l_2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{50\times (61.3-90)}{50-61.3}\\\Rightarrow M=126.99115\ g$

The mass of the meter stick is 126.99115 g

Collapse question part Part 4 (d) What is the unit vector in the direction of the spacecraft's velocity? (Express your answer in

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

Explanation:

Given:

v = (-23.2, -104.4, 46.4) m/s

Above expression describes spacecraft's velocity vector v.

Find:

Find unit vector in the direction of spacecraft velocity v.

Solution:

Step 1: Compute magnitude of velocity vector.

mag (v) = sqrt ( 23.2^2 + 104.4^2 + 46.4^2)

mag (v) = 116.58 m/s

Step 2: Compute unit vector unit (v)

unit (v) = vec (v) / mag (v)

unit (v) = [ -23.2 i -104.4 j + 46.4 k ] / 116.58

unit (v) = [ -0.199 i - 0.8955 j + 0.39801 k ]

A 6.0 kg metal ball moving at 4.0 m/s hits a 6.0 kg ball of putty at rest and sticks to it. The two go on at 2.0 m/s.

lutik1710 [3]

The metal ball lost energy while the putty ball gained energy.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of the body. We must note that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

1) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2mv^2 = 0.5 * 6 * 4 = 12 J

2) kinetic energy after collision = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J

3) Kinetic energy of putty ball = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J

4) Energy lost by the metal ball = 12 J - 6 J = 6 J

5) Energy gained by the putty ball = 6 J - 0J = 6 J

6) The rest of the energy was converted to heat after the collision.

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.

Nonamiya [84]

First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
