(a) Period of the wave
The period of a wave is the time needed for a complete cycle of the wave to pass through a certain point.
So, if an entire cycle of the wave passes through the given location in 5.0 seconds, this means that the period is equal to 5.0 s: T=5.0 s.

(b) Frequency of the wave
The frequency of a wave is defined as
f= \frac{1}{T}
since in our problem the period is T=5.0 s, the frequency is
f= \frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.2 Hz

(c) Speed of the wave
The speed of a wave is given by the following relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda:
v=f \lambda = (0.2 Hz)(2.5 m)=0.5 m/s

A point charge of 5.7 µc moves at 4.5 × 105 m/s in a magnetic field that has a field strength of 3.2 mt, as shown in the diagram
Sauron [17]

The magnitude of the force on the charge by the influence of the magnetic field will be 6.6*10^-3 N

<h3>What is magnetic force?</h3>

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion.The magnitude of the magnetic force acting on the charge is given by:

\rm F=qvBsin\theta

where

The magnitude of the charge   q=5.7\ \mu C =5.7\times 10^{-6} \ C

The velocity of the charge        v=4.5\times 10^5\ \frac{m}{s}

The magnitude of the magnetic field   3.2\ mT=0.0032\ T

The angle between the directions of v and B  \theta =90^o-37^o=53^o

By substituting the values we will get:

F=(5.7\times 10^}-6})(4.5\times 10^5)(0.0032)(Sin53^o)

F=6.6\times 10^{-3}\ N

Hence the magnitude of the force on the charge by the influence of the magnetic field will be 6.6*10^-3 N

The displacement of a 500 g mass, undergoing simple harmonic motion, is defined by the function :
Delicious77 [7]

The maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion, in physics, repetitive movement back and forth through an equilibrium, or central, position, so that the maximum displacement on one side of this position is equal to the maximum displacement on the other side.

Simple Harmonic Motion

The given equation of the simple harmonic motion is

x=3.5 sin (\frac{\pi }{2t} + \frac{5\pi }{4} )

Data;

ω = π/2

k = 1.254N/m

Solving this

\frac{dx}{dt} = -3.5 X \frac{\pi }{2} cos (\frac{x\pi t}{2}+\frac{5\pi }{4}  )

Let's calculate the maximum velocity.

V_{m} =\frac{3.5\pi }{2}

This is only possible when cos θ = -1

The maximum kinetic energy is

K_m =\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} X \frac{500}{1000} X \frac{7^2\pi ^2}^{4} ^2

w^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\k = w^2m\\k = \frac{\pi ^2}{4} X \frac{500}{1000} \\k =1.254 N/m

Using the value of spring constant, we can find the maximum potential energy.

P.E =\frac{1}{2} k x^2\\P.E =\frac{1}{2} X 1.234 X 3.5^2 \\P.E = 7.56 J

The maximum potential energy is 7.56J

The maximum mechanical energy is equal to the sum of maximum potential energy and the maximum kinetic energy.

ME = K.E + P.E

ME = 7.56J

From the calculations above, the maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.
