This is simply referring to the fact that the gravitational pull of the earth is greater as you get closer to the surface of the earth, meaning that acceleration increases as well.

A student using a tuning fork of frequency 512 Hz observes that the speed of sound is 340.0 m/s. What is the wavelength of this
Romashka [77]

Answer:

0.066m

Explanation:

Step one:

given

frequency =512 Hz

The speed of sound is 340.0 m/s.

Required

The wavelength

Step two:

the formula for wavelength is

v=f \lambda

\lambda= v/f

substitute the given data

\lambda= 340/514\\\\\lambda= 0.66m

hree identical resistors are connected in series. When a certain potential difference is applied across the combination, the tot
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The power dissipated if the three resistors were connected in parallel across the same potential difference is 405 W

Explanation:

Given;

three identical resistors connected in series

let the first resistor = R₁

let the second resistor = R₂

let the third resistor = R₃

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃

Since the resistors are identical, thus, R₁ = R₂ = R₃ = R

Rt = 3R

Power is given as;

P = IV = V² / R

P = \frac{V^2}{R_t} = \frac{V^2}{3R} \\\\3P = \frac{V^2}{R} ------equation(i)

If the 3 identical resistor connection were changed to parallel, then the equivalent resistance in the circuit will be;

\frac{1}{R_t} = \frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3} \\\\But, R_1 = R_2 = R_3\\\\\\frac{1}{R_t} = \frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R} + \frac{1}{R} \\\\\frac{1}{R_t} =\frac{3}{R} \\\\R_t = \frac{R}{3} \\\\P = \frac{V^2}{R_t} = \frac{3V^2}{R} \\\\P_{parallel} = \frac{3V^2}{R} ---------equation (ii)\\\\From \ equation \ (i), 3P_{series} = \frac{V^2}{R}, Substitute \ this \ into \ equation \ (ii)\\\\P = 3(\frac{V^2}{R} )\\\\P = 3(3P)\\\\P_{parallel} = 9P_{series}\\\\P_{parallel} = 9(45)\\\\

P_{parallel} = 405 \ W

Therefore, the power dissipated if the three resistors were connected in parallel across the same potential difference is 405 W

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

2.5x10^-3 J

Explanation:

C=50mC

V=10V

U=1/2 C (V)^2

=1/2(50)(10)^2 x (10)^-6

=25(100)/1000000

=2.5x10^-3

a wave is described by where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular frequency is
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Complete Question

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimetres and t is in seconds. The angular wave  frequency is

Answer:

The  value is w =  10 \ rad /s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The equation describing the wave is y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Generally the sinusoidal equation representing the motion of a wave is mathematically represented as

         y(x,t) =  Asin(kx + wt )

Where  w  is the  angular frequency

Now comparing this equation  with that given we see that

       w =  10 \ rad /s
