A rope has one end tied to a vertical support. You hold the other end so that the rope is horizontal. If you move the end of the

rope back and forth with a frequency of 4 Hz, the transverse wave you produce has a wavelength of 0.5 m. What is the speed of the wave in the rope?a. 0.13 m/sb. 8 m/sc. 2 m/sd. 4 m/s

Answer:

c. 2 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by:

v=f \lambda

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the transverse wave in this problem, we have:

f = 4 Hz is the frequency

\lambda=0.5 m is the wavelength

Substituting these numbers into the equation, we find the speed of the wave:

v=(4 Hz)(0.5 m)=2 m/s

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their
natta225 [31]

Answer:

5.0 m/s

Explanation:

The horizontal motion of the salmon is uniform, so the horizontal component of the salmon's velocity is constant and it is

v_x = u cos \theta

where u is the initial speed and \theta=37.7^{\circ}. The horizontal distance travelled by the salmon is

d=v_x t = (ucos \theta)t

where d = 1.95 m and t is the time needed to reach the final point.

Re-arranging for t,

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{d}{u cos \theta} (1)

Along the vertical direction, the equation of motion is

y=h+u_y t -\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where:

y = 0.311 m is the final height reached by the salmon

h = 0 is the initial height

u_y = u sin \theta is the vertical component of the initial velocity of the salmon

g=9.81 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Substituting t as found in eq.(1), we get the equation

y=(u sin \theta) \frac{d}{u cos \theta}- \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}=d tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}

and we can solve this formula for u, the initial speed of the salmon:

y=d tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{d^2}{u^2 cos^2 \theta}\\\\u=\sqrt{\frac{gd^2}{2(dtan \theta -y)cos^2 \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{(9.81)(1.95)^2}{2((1.95)(tan 37.7^{\circ}) -0.311)cos^2 37.7^{\circ}}}=5.0 m/s

Help ASAP.
Temka [501]

Answer:

Depending on where people are located in the world (Northern hemisphere, Southern hemisphere, etc) depends on the difference in direction (North, South, east, West) which is most likely why it'd look different.

Explanation:

I dunno if this is along the lines of an answer you're looking for, but hope this helps :)

two 2.5 kg balls move away from each other one traveling 3 m/s to the right the other 4 m/s to the left what is the magnitude of
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

2.5 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Taking left side as positive while right side direction as negative then

Momentum, p= mv where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of travel

Momentum for ball moving towards right side=mv=2.5*-3=-7.5 kg.m/s

Momentum for the ball moving towards the left side=mv=2.5*4=10 kg.m/s

Total momentum=-7.5 kg.m/s+10 kg.m/s=2.5 kg.m/s
