Every 10.0 seconds, a crest of the wave passes the pier. This means that the period of the wave is exactly 10.0 s:
which means that the frequency of the wave is
The wavelength of a wave is related to its frequency by the relationship
where v is the speed of the wave.
In this problem, v=5.6 m/s; if we use the previous formula, we find the wavelength of the wave:
Explanation:
We know that a changing magnetic field induces a current in a conductor. For that reason a generator basically consist an element that produces a magnetic field that changes over time and a conductor where the current will be induced.
This element that produces a magnetic field can be one of the following:
- A permanent magnet: Which is basically like a regular magnet. The magnetic field that a permanent magnet produces does not change over time, we need a motor or any other external force to move the axis of the generator and cause the magnetic field to change.
- An electro-magnet. Which is basically a DC current flowing through a conductor. Basically, when current flows through a conductor it behaves exactly like a magnet. So what we commonly do, is to connect a conductor to a DC battery, and it will create a magnetic field.
Like we are using a DC battery to create a magnetic field, then the magnetic field won't change over time either. So we still need an external force to move the axis of the generator to produce AC electricity.
The object is called a meteor because it is producing Streak of light and has not yet struck earth.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
A meteoroid is a celestial object which is very smaller than an asteroid. These objects are produced as a collision impact from mars or moon and float freely in space without any specific orbit. When they come inside the Earth's gravitational field, they are attracted by the Earth's gravity to Earth's crust. These objects in Earth's atmosphere are called meteors. As they travel through Earth's atmosphere, they do face a huge friction from Earth's atmosphere which let them burn and that is visible as the tail of the meteor.
Most of them are so small that they are burnt away in the atmosphere. But some are bigger and they reach the Earth's surface and are called as meteorites.
The object's mass is around 69.592 kg
F=mg
A motor is built to use all those things and produce mechanical energy.
