You dip your finger into a pan of water twice each second,producing waves with crests that are separated by 0.17 m.
____ [38]

Answer:

a) 2Hz

b) 0.5seconds

c) 0.34m/s

Explanation:

a) Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations completed by a wave in one second.

If my finger is dipped into a pan of water twice each second, it means that my hand has made 2 oscillations through the water in one second. An oscillation is a to and fro movement of a particle, body or wave through a medium.

Based on the conclusion, the frequency of the waterwaves will be 2Hertz or 2cycles/sec.

2) Period T of a wave is defined as the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation. It is the reciprocal of the frequency of a wave.

T = 1/F

Given frequency = 2Hertz

T = 1/2

T = 0.5seconds

Period of the water wave is 0.5seconds

c) speed of the wave v is expressed according to the relationship:

velocity = frequency × wavelength

Given:

Frequency = 2Hertz

Wavelength = 0.17m (Since it is the difference between two successive crest or trough of a wave)

Velocity = 2×0.17

Velocity = 0.34m/s

A 52 kg child on a swing is travelling at 6 m/s . What is his gravitational potential energy if he has 1000 J of the mechanical
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is "64 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 52 kg

Velocity,

v = 6 m/s

Mechanical energy,

= 1000 J

Now,

The gravitational potential energy will be:

⇒ P.E=1000-\frac{1}{2}mv^2

           =1000-\frac{1}{2}\times 52\times (6)^2

           =1000-26\times 36

           =1000-936

           =64 \ J

In figure 16-2 is the temperature of the material within the cylinder greatest during the intake stroke, compression stroke, pow
erastovalidia [21]
Technically, we have no way of knowing that without seeing Figure 16-2.
So the question should be reported for incomplete content.  But I'm
going to take a wild stab at it anyway.

There's so much discussion of 'cylinder' and 'strokes' in the question,
I have a hunch that it's talking about the guts of a 4-stroke internal
combustion gasoline engine. 

If I'm right, then the temperature of the material within the cylinder is
greatest right after the spark ignites it.  At that instant, the material burns, 
explodes, expands violently, and drives the piston down with its stiff shot
of pressure.

This is obviously happening because of the great, sudden increase in
temperature when the material ignites and explodes.

It hits the piston with pressure, which leads directly to the power stroke.

If an object falls and ends with a velocity of 58.8 m/s, how long was the<br><br> object falling?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

the time taken for the object to fall is 6 s.

Explanation:

Given;

final velocity of the object, v = 58.8 m/s

initial velocity of the object, u = 0

The height of fall of the object is calculated as;

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 2gh

h = \frac{v^2}{2g} \\\\h = \frac{(58.8)^2}{2(9.8)} \\\\h = 176.4 \ m

The time to fall through the height is calculated as;

h =ut+  \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 0 +  \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h =  \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\t= \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 176.4}{9.8} } \\\\t = 6 \ s

Therefore, the time taken for the object to fall is 6 s.
