Answer:
The wave length of the string = 10 cm or 0.1 m
Explanation:
Wave: A wave can be defined as a disturbance, which travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another, without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself.
The velocity, frequency and wavelength of a wave is related as shown,
v = λf ........................ Equation 1
Where v = velocity of the wave, λ = wave length, f = frequency.
λ = v/f ..................... Equation 2.
Given: v = 10 cm/s,
T = 2t, where t = 0.5 s, (This is half of one cycle)
T = 2×0.5 = 1 s,
But T = 1/f = 1/1 = 1 Hz.
Substituting these values into equation 2
λ = 10(1)
λ = 10 cm. or 0.1 m
Thus the wave length of the waves = 10 cm or 0.1 m
Answer:
A circuit breaker is a switching mechanism that interrupts the current that is irregular or fault. It is a mechanical system that interferes with high magnitude (fault) current flow and also performs a transfer operation. Hope this helps :)
Explanation:
The weight of an object is taken to be the force on the object due to gravity. The weight ( W ) is the product of the mass ( m ) of the object and the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration ( g ).
On Earth: g = 9.81 m/s²
m = 20 kg
W = m · g = 20 kg · 9.81 m/s² = 196.2 N

D. (1m, 0.5m)
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a system of particles is the point where the weight acts when the individual particles are replaced by a single particle of equivalent mass. For the three masses, the coordinates of the center of mass C(x, y) is given by;
x = (m₁x₁ + m₂x₂ + m₃x₃) / M ----------------(i)
y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂ + m₃y₃) / M ----------------(ii)
Where;
M = sum of the masses
m₁ and x₁ = mass and position of first mass in the x direction.
m₂ and x₂ = mass and position of second mass in the x direction.
m₃ and x₃ = mass and position of third mass in the x direction.
y₁ , y₂ and y₃ = positions of the first, second and third masses respectively in the y direction.
From the question;
m₁ = 6kg
m₂ = 4kg
m₃ = 2kg
x₁ = 0m
x₂ = 3m
x₃ = 0m
y₁ = 0m
y₂ = 0m
y₃ = 3m
M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = 6 + 4 + 2 = 12kg
Substitute these values into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;
x = ((6x0) + (4x3) + (2x0)) / 12
x = 12 / 12
x = 1 m
y = (6x0) + (4x0) + (2x3)) / 12
y = 6 / 12
y = 0.5m
Therefore, the center of mass of the system is at (1m, 0.5m)
Answer: When rubbing a balloon with a wool cloth, it puts negative charges on the balloon. Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon.
