Answer:

f = 0.5 Hz

v = 8 m/s

Explanation:

f = 1/T

f = 1/(2) = 0.5 Hz

v = λf

v = (2)(4) = 8 m/s

A sheet of metal is 2mm wide 10cm tall and 15cm long. it was 4g. what is the density? <br>

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Ro = 133 [kg/m³]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must apply the definition of density, which is defined as the relationship between mass and volume.

$Ro = m/V$

where:

m = mass [kg]

V = volume [m³]

We will convert the units of length to meters and the mass to kilograms.

L = 15 [cm] = 0.15 [m]

t = 2 [mm] = 0.002 [m]

w = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now we can find the volume.

$V = 0.15*0.002*0.1\\V = 0.00003 [m^{3} ]$

And the mass m = 4 [gramm] = 0.004 [kg]

$Ro = 0.004/0.00003\\Ro = 133 [kg/m^{3}]$

Two 0.50 g spheres are charged equally and placed 2.5 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate at 170 m/s^2 .What is th

vitfil [10]

Answer:

$q=7.65*10^{-8}C$

Explanation:

Using Newton's second law, we calculate the magnitude of the electric force between the spheres:

$F=ma\\F=0.5*10^{-3}kg(170\frac{m}{s^2})\\F=0.085N$

The magnitude of the charge in both spheres is the same. So, we calculate the charge, using Coulomb's law:

$F=\frac{kq^2}{d^2}\\q=\sqrt\frac{Fd^2}{k}\\q=\sqrt\frac{(0.085N)(2.5*10^{-2}m)^2}{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}}\\q=7.65*10^{-8}C$

34. A train, starting from rest, accelerates along the platform at a uniform rate of 0.6 m/s2. A passenger standing on the platf

ira [324]

Answer:

4.08 s

Explanation:

Let the passenger took "t" time to catch the train

so in this case the total distance moved by the train + 5 m = total distance moved by the passenger

so we will have

distance moved by train is given as

$d_1 = \frac{1}{2}(0.6) t^2$

also the distance moved by passenger

$d_2 = \frac{1}{2}(1.2) t^2$

so we will have

$d_1 + 5 = d_2$

$0.3 t^2 + 5 = 0.6 t^2$

$0.3 t^2 = 5$

t = 4.08 s

Waves transport

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

d)energy

Explanation:

Waves can transfer energy over distance without moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself moving many kilometers. The water moves up and down—a motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that travels in a wave, transferring energy.

A 20.5 kg ball moving at 38.5 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface runs into a light spring of force

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

7.68 m

Explanation:

Kinetic energy in ball = elastic energy in spring

KE = EE

½ mv² = ½ kx²

mv² = kx²

x = v √(m / k)

x = (38.5 m/s) √(20.5 kg / 515 N/m)

x = 7.68 m
