Answer:

83.3 kHz

Explanation:

The frequency of a waveform is equal to the reciprocal of its period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}$

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

In this problem, we have

$T=12 \mu s=12\cdot 10^{-6} s$

so, the frequency of the waveform is

$f=\frac{1}{12 \cdot 10^{-6} s}=8.33\cdot 10^4 Hz$

And by converting into kiloHertz,

$f=8.33\cdot 10^4 Hz=83.3 kHz$

A train travels 99 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 90 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed?

Agata [3.3K]

Average speed =

(total distance)/(total time)

Average speed = (99+90)/(2+3)

That's (189 km) / (5 hr)

Average speed = 37.8 km/hr

A child, hunting for his favorite wooden horse, is running on the ground around the edge of a stationary merry-go-round. The ang

Answer:

9.22 s

Explanation:

One-quarter of a turn away is 1/4 of 2π, or π/2 which is approximately 1.57 rad

Let t (seconds) be the time it takes for the child to catch up with the horse. We would have the following equation of motion for the child and the horse:

For the child: $s_c = \omega_ct = 0.233t$

For the horse: $s_h = s_0 + a_ht^2/2 = 1.57 + 0.0136t^2/2 = 1.57 + 0.0068t^2$

For the child to catch up with the horse, they must cover the same angular distance within the same time t:

$s_c = s_h$

$0.233t = 1.57 + 0.0068t^2$

$0.0068t^2 - 0.233t + 1.57 = 0$

$t= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$t= \frac{0.233\pm \sqrt{(-0.233)^2 - 4*(0.0068)*(1.57)}}{2*(0.0068)}$

$t= \frac{0.233\pm0.11}{0.0136}$

t = 25.05 or t = 9.22

Since we are looking for the shortest time we will pick t = 9.22 s

Differentiate scalar & vector quantity?

Keith_Richards [23]

$\textbf{Hello Friend}$

Scalar Quantity :-

→ These are the quantities with magnitude only . These quantities doesn't have to be mentioned with direction

eg.)=> Mass , Temprature .

Vector Quantity :-

→ These quantities are described with both Magnitude and Direction . These quantities follow special type of algebra called Vector algebra .

eg.)=> Force , Displacement
