While anchored in the middle of a lake, you count exactly five waves hitting your boat every 10 s. you raise anchor and start mo

toring slowly in the same direction the waves are going. when traveling at 1.5 m/s, you notice that exactly three waves are hitting the boat from behind every 10 s. what is the speed of the waves on the lake?

<span>Every 10s 5 waves; t1 = 2s for each wave
 When v = 1.5m/s, 3 waves in 10s t2 = 10 / 3s
  Calculating the frequency in first case f1 = 5 / 10 = 0.5
 Calculating the frequency in second case f2 = 3 / 10 = 0.3
 Using the Doppler formula f = (1-v/c) f0
  For the formula f = f2, v = velocity of boat= 1.5 m/s, f0 = f1, c is velocity of wave 0.3 = 0.5 x (1 - 1.5/c) => 1.5/c = 1 - 0.6 => 1.5/c = 0.4 => c = 1.5/0.4 Velocity of the wave = 3.75 m/s</span>

How are metals identified i the periodic table??
zaharov [31]

Answer:

okay here is a thing I learned when I was younger in my middle school:

Explanation:

my teacher would tell me that metals are considered a weak metals are on the left side and the good metals are located on the right side because the only way I remembered was the right means it is really strong and the left is weak and not that supportive. but I think that's how I still think it is or other people may have their own opinions. but hope this helped out with your question!

How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated
guapka [62]

Answer:

The two methods will yield different results as one is subject to experimental errors that us the Archimedes method of measurement, the the density measurement method will be more accurate

Explanation:

This is because the density method using the calculated volume will huve room for less errors that's occur in practical method i.e Archimedes method due to human error

When we go up From the earth surface.what happens about the atmospheric pressure​
topjm [15]

Answer:

There are two reasons why air pressure decreases as altitude increases: density and depth of the atmosphere. Most gas molecules in the atmosphere are pulled close to Earth's surface by gravity, so gas particles are denser near the surface.
