Answer:

f=171.43Hz

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

The frequency formula is: f=v÷λ, where <em>v</em> is the velocity and <em>λ</em> is the wavelength.

Then replacing with the data of the problem,

f= $\frac{120\frac{m}{s} }{0.7m}$

f=171.43 $\frac{1}{s}$

f=171.43 Hz (because $\frac{1}{s} = Hz$ , 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second).

An LC circuit consists of a 3.4-µF capacitor and a coil with a self-inductance 0.080 H and no appreciable resistance. At t = 0 t

alexira [117]

Answer

given,

capacitance = C = 3.4-µF

inductance = L = 0.08 H

frequency is expressed as

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}$

time period

$T = \dfrac{1}{f}=2\pi\sqrt{LC}$

after time T/4 current reach maximum

$t = \dfrac{T}{4}$

$t = \dfrac{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}{4}$

$t = \dfrac{2\pi\sqrt{0.08 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-6}}}{4}$

t = 8.2 x 10⁻⁴ s

t = 0.82 ms

b) using law of conservation

$\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2$

$I^2 = \dfrac{CV^2}{L}$

$I^2 = \dfrac{C}{L}\dfrac{Q^2}{C^2}$

$I =\sqrt{\dfrac{Q^2}{CL}}$

$I =\sqrt{\dfrac{(5.4 \times 10^{-6})^2}{0.08 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-6}}}$

I = 0.010 A

I = 10 mA

Find the sum of the vectors:11 km N ,11km E

vladimir1956 [14]

The resultant vector is 11√2 km due north east.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The vector is a type of quantity which has both magnitude and direction. This quantities when expressed needs to specify both magnitude and direction.

We need to calculate the magnitude and direction separately.

Here firstly for the magnitude,

The magnitudes are both 11 km and they are at right angles to each other.

So, the resultant magnitude = √(11² +11²) km

=11√2 km

Now for the direction, one vector is due north and the other is due east.

So the resultant vector is due north east.

So the final vector is 11√2 km due North-East.
