Answer: 150J

Explanation:

m = 5 kg

g = 10 m/s2

h = 3m

P.E = mgh

P.E = 5 x 10 x 3

P.E = 150J

Calculate the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 60 Hz and wavelength of 2.0 m/s

mote1985 [20]

Answer:We have , a relation in frequency f and wavelength λ of a wave having the velocity v as ,

v=fλ ,

given f=60Hz , λ=20m ,

therefore velocity of wave , v=60×20=1200m/s

A stationary boat in the ocean is experiencing waves from a storm. The waves move at 59 km/h and have a wavelength of 145 m . Th

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave is 4.46 seconds.

Explanation:

Speed of the wave, v = 59 km/h = 16.38 m/s

Wavelength of the wave, $\lambda=145\ m$

If f is the frequency of the wave. The frequency of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{16.38\ m/s}{145\ m}\\\\f=0.112\ Hz$

The time period of the wave is given by :

$T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{0.112\ Hz}\\\\T=8.92\ s$

We need to find the time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave. So, the time will be half of the time period of the wave.

$T=\dfrac{8.92}{2}\\\\T=4.46\ s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Find the radius of the circle formed by the intersection of a sphere of diameter 26 units and a plane that is 5 units away from

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

12 units

Explanation:

This problem can be solved if we take into account the equation for a sphere

$x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=r^{2}\\x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=(\frac{26}{2})^{2}=13^{2}$

where we took that the radius is 13 units. If we take z=5 and we replace this value in the equation of the sphere we have

$x^{2}+y^{2}+(5)^{5}=13^{2}\\x^{2}+y^{2}=144=(12)^{2}$

where we have taken x2 +y2 because if the equation of a circunference.

In this case the intersection is made when we take z=5, for this value the sphere and the plane coincides in values.

Hence, the radius is 12 units

I hope this is useful for you

3.7. A dog searching for a bone walks 3.50 m south, then 8.20 m at an angle 23.1 degrees north of east, and finally 15.0 m west.

andriy [413]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement of dog in vector form , in terms of i , j , i representing east and j representing north .

Dog travels 3.5 m south .

Displacement D₁ = - 3.5 j

then dog travels 8.2 m , 23.1 degree north of east

Displacement D₂ = 8.2 cos23.1 i + 8.2 sin23 j

D₂ = 8.2 cos23.1 i + 8.2 sin23.1 j

= 7.54 i + 3.22 j

Third displacement

D₃ = - 15i

Total displacement = D₁ + D₂ + D₃

= - 3.5 j + 7.54 i + 3.22 j -15i

= - 7.46 i - 0.28 j

Magnitude of displacement = √ ( 7.46² + .28²)

= √(55.65 + .08 )

= 7.46 m

b ) Direction of displacement

If Ф be angle , displacement makes with west direction

TanФ = .08 / 55.65 = .00143

Ф = .082 degree south of west or almost west .

From east , this angle = 180 + .082 = 180.082 , counterclockwise .
