Using the information from Paul Hewitt's Conceptual Development Practice Page 25-1 and the image below, answer the following que

stion.Image of a wave with two rulers, one vertical and one horizontal, measuring the wave is shown. The wave's first crest aligns from 0 to just less than 4 centimeters on the horizontal ruler and rises from the equilibrium located at 5 centimeters to just before 3 centimeters. The wave's first trough aligns continues to just less than 8 centimeters on the horizontal ruler and goes down from the equilibrium located at 5 centimeters to just before 7 centimeters.What was the measurement of the wavelength and amplitude respectively?

Answer:

A = 2 cm ,   λ = 8 cm

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum height it has, in this case the height is measured by the vertical ruler,

We are told the balance point is in the reading of 5 cm, that the maximum reading is 3 cm and the Minimum reading is 7 cm. Therefore, the distance from the ends of the ridge to the point of equilibrium is

          d = 7-5 = 2 cm

          d = 5-3 = 2 cm

          A = 2 cm

The wavelength is the minimum horizontal distance for which the wave is repeated, that is measured by the horizontal ruler.

The initial reading for 4 cm and the final reading for 8 cm, this distance corresponds to a crest of the wave, the complete wave is formed by two crests whereby the wavelength is twice this value

          Δx = 8-4 = 4 cm

          λ = 2 Δx

          λ = 8 cm

Diagram B D c с Which car has: Ke = 100 PE=0? * 1 point A B C D​
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The car C has KE = 100, PE = 0

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that although energy can be transformed from one form to another, the total energy of the given system remains unchanged.

The energy that a body possesses due to its motion or position is known as mechanical energy. There are two kinds of mechanical energy: kinetic energy, KE and potential energy, PE.

Kinetic energy is the energy that a body possesses due to its motion.

Potential energy is the energy a body possesses due to its position.

From the principle of conservation of energy, kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and vice versa, but in all cases the energy is conserved or constant.

In the diagram above, the cars at various positions of rest or motion are transforming the various forms of mechanical energy, but the total energy is conserved at every point. At the point A, energy is all potential, at B, it is partly potential partly kinetic energy, However, at the point C, all the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy. At D, some of the kinetic energy has been converted to potential energy as the car climbs up the hill.

Therefore, the car C has KE = 100, PE = 0

1. How much force is needed to accelerate a 66 kg skier<br> at 2 m/sec2?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

<h2>132 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 66 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>132 N</h3>

An object is moving at 2.50 m/s [E]. At a time 3.00 seconds later the object is traveling at 1.50 m/s
babunello [35]

Given parameters:

First velocity  = 2.50m/s

Time of travel = 3s

Second velocity  = 1.50m/s

Unknown:

The displacement during the first interval = ?

Velocity is the displacement of a body with time. Displacement is a distance move in a specific direction by a body.

    Velocity  = \frac{Displacement}{Time taken}

So;

      Displacement  = Velocity x Time taken

Now input the parameter for the first velocity and time of travel;

      Displacement  = 2.5 x 3  = 7.5m

The displacement id 7.5m
