A swimmer is capable of swimming 0.42 m/s in still water. part a if she aims her body directly across a 66-m-wide river whose cu

<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>

Answer:

The mass and velocity for kinetic energy. Potential Energy: How high an object is and the mass in kilograms or it is the weight in and how high an object is. There are two formulas to calculate potential energy, but the one with grams is used more often.

) Music. When a person sings, his or her vocal cords vibrate in a repetitive pattern that has the same frequency as the note tha

vaieri [72.5K]

(a) 0.0021 s, 2926.5 rad/s

The frequency of the B note is

$f= 466 Hz$

The time taken to make one complete cycle is equal to the period of the wave, which is the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{466 Hz}=0.0021 s$

The angular frequency instead is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f$

And substituting

f = 466 Hz

We find

$\omega = 2\pi (466 Hz)=2926.5 rad/s$

(b) 20 Hz, 125.6 rad/s

In this case, the period of the sound wave is

T = 50.0 ms = 0.050 s

So the frequency is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{0.050 s}=20 Hz$

While the angular frequency is given by:

$\omega = 2\pi f = 2 \pi (20 Hz)=125.6 rad/s$

(c) $4.30\cdot 10^{14} Hz, 7.48\cdot 1^{14} Hz, 2.33\cdot 10^{-15} s, 1.34\cdot 10^{-15}s$

The minimum angular frequency of the light wave is

$\omega_1 = 2.7\cdot 10^{15}rad/s$

so the corresponding frequency is

$f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi}=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^{15}rad/s}{2\pi}=4.30\cdot 10^{14} Hz$

and the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{4.30\cdot 10^{14}Hz}=2.33\cdot 10^{-15}s$

The maximum angular frequency of the light wave is

$\omega_2 = 4.7\cdot 10^{15}rad/s$

so the corresponding frequency is

$f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi}=\frac{4.7\cdot 10^{15}rad/s}{2\pi}=7.48\cdot 10^{14} Hz$

and the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{7.48\cdot 10^{14}Hz}=1.34\cdot 10^{-15}s$

(d) $2.0\cdot 10^{-7}s, 3.14\cdot 10^{7} rad/s$

In this case, the frequency is

$f=5.0 MHz = 5.0 \cdot 10^6 Hz$

So the period in this case is

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{5.0\cdot 10^6 Hz}=2.0 \cdot 10^{-7} s$

While the angular frequency is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f=2 \pi (5.0\cdot 10^{6}Hz)=3.14\cdot 10^{7} rad/s$

An object is placed in front of a diverging lens, such that the object-to-image distance is 71 cm.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Object-to-image distance d= 71 cm

Image distance = 26 cm

We need to calculate the object distance

$u -v= d$

$u=71+26=97\ cm$

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{-26}+\dfrac{1}{97}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{71}{2522}$

$f=-35.52\ cm$

The focal length of the lens is 35.52.

(B). Given that,

Object distance = 95 cm

Focal length = 29 cm

We need to calculate the distance of the image

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

Put the value in to the formula

$\dfrac{1}{-29}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{95}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-29}-\dfrac{1}{95}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=-\dfrac{124}{2755}$

$v=-22.21\ cm$

We need to calculate the magnification

Using formula of magnification

$m=\dfrac{v}{u}$

$m=\dfrac{22.21}{95}$

$m=0.233$

The magnification is 0.233.

The image is virtual.

Hence, This is the required solution.

-- pick a planet from the table

-- take it's mass and radius from the table, and plug them into the big ugly formula above the table

-- do the arithmetic with your pencil or your calculator. The answer is the acceleration of gravity on the planet you picked. Write it down so you don't lose it.

-- do the same for the other 3 planets in the table
