Velocity tells you how fast and in what direction. Speed only tells how fast.

A hazard sign has 3 identical
melomori [17]

Answer and Explanation: To know how much tape he will need, we have to calculate the perimeter of each parallelogram-shaped stripe.

Perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a figure.

For a parallelogram:

P = 2*length + 2*width

So, we need to determine width and length of the stripe.

Width is 3 inches. Length is the hypotenuse of the right triangle, whose sides are 6 and 18 inches. Then, length is

h=\sqrt{18^{2}+6^{2}}

h=\sqrt{360}

h = 19 in

Perimeter of the first stripe is

P = (2*19) + (2*3)

P = 44 inches

The hazard sign has 3 stripes. So total perimeter is

P_{t}= 44 + 44 + 44

P_{t}= 132 inches

To outline the parallelogram-shaped stripes, Charles need a total of 132 inches of tape. Since one roll has 144 inches, he will have enough tape to finish the job.

A 2.0 µF capacitor is charged through a 50,000 ohm resistor. How long does it take for the capacitor to reach 90% of full charge
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

0.23 s

Explanation:

First of all, let's find the time constant of the circuit:

\tau=RC

where

R=50,000 \Omega is the resistance

C=2.0\mu F=2.0\cdot 10^{-6}F is the capacitance

Substituting,

\tau=(50,000 \Omega)(2.0\cdot 10^{-6}F)=0.1 s

The charge on a charging capacitor is given by

Q(t)=Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau} ) (1)

where

Q_0 is the full charge

we want to find the time t at which the capacitor reaches 90% of the full charge, so the time t at which

Q(t)=0.90 Q_0

Substituting this into eq.(1) we find

0.90 Q_0 = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})\\0.90=1-e^{-t/\tau}\\e^{-t/\tau}=1-0.90=0.10\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(0.10)\\t=-\tau ln(0.10)=(0.1 s)ln(0.10)=0.23 s

Which of the following represents the wavelength of a wave?
dlinn [17]

Answer: D. the distance between the highest points of consecutive waves

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is defined as the <em>distance traveled by a periodic perturbation that propagates through a medium in a given time interval</em>. It is usually represented by \lambda and can be calculated if the frequency of the wave is known, since there is an inverse relationship between both.

In the specific case of a periodic sine wave (which is the way in which a wave is usually represented graphically) the wavelength can be determined as the distance between two consecutive maxima of the disturbance.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
