Wewaii [24]3 years ago
8 0
The correct option is A.
Fluorescent lamps have many advantages over incandescent lamps and the options given in B, C and D are part of these advantages. The option given in A is a disadvantage and not an advantage. This is because, as a result of operating at an higher temperature, it will gives out and radiate more heat.

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

hram777 [196]

Answer:

F₃ = 122.88 N

θ₃ = 20.63°

Explanation:

First we find the components of F₁:

For x-component:

F₁ₓ = F₁ Cos θ₁

F₁ₓ = (50 N) Cos 60°

F₁ₓ = 25 N

For y-component:

F₁y = F₁ Sin θ₁

F₁y = (50 N) Sin 60°

F₁y = 43.3 N

Now, for F₂. As, F₂ acts along x-axis. Therefore, its y-component will be zero and its x-xomponent will be equal to the magnitude of force itself:

F₂ₓ = F₂ = 90 N

F₂y = 0 N

Now, for the resultant force on ball to be zero, the sum of x-components of the forces and the sum of the y-component of the forces must also be equal to zero:

F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ + F₃ₓ = 0 N

25 N + 90 N + F₃ₓ = 0 N

F₃ₓ = - 115 N

for y-components:

F₁y + F₂y + F₃y = 0 N

43.3 N + 0 N + F₃y = 0 N

F₃y = - 43.3 N

Now, the magnitude of F₃ can be found as:

F₃ = √F₃ₓ² + F₃y²

F₃ = √[(- 115 N)² + (- 43.3 N)²]

<u>F₃ = 122.88 N</u>

and the direction is given as:

θ₃ = tan⁻¹(F₃y/F₃ₓ) = tan⁻¹(-43.3 N/-115 N)

<u>θ₃ = 20.63°</u>
