1) 3 miles/Hour

The speed is defined as the distance covered divided by the time taken:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d = 1.5 mi is the distance

t = 0.5 h is the time taken

Substituting,

v=\frac{1.5}{0.5}=3 mi/h

2) 1.34 m/s south

Velocity, instead, is a vector, so it has both a magnitude and a direction. We have:

d=1.5 mi \cdot 1609 m/mi = 2414 m is the displacement in meters

t=0.5 h \cdot 3600 s/h =1800 s is the time taken in seconds

Substituting,

v=\frac{2414 m}{1800 s}=1.34 m/s

And the direction of the velocity is the same as the displacement, so it is south.

Find the work w1 done on the block by the force of magnitude f1 = 75.0 n as the block moves from xi = -1.00 cm to xf = 3.00 cm .
MissTica
<span>The work done is 3.0 Nm. We can us the equation Work = Force * Distance, where Force = 75.0 N, and distance is xf – xi = 3.00 cm - -1.00 cm = 4.00 cm. Convert centimeters to meters by moving the decimal place to the left by two places to get 0.04 m. Plug these values into the Work equation: Work = Force * Distance Work = 75.0 N * 0.04 m Work = 3.0 Nm</span>

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes
