Answer:

Explanation:

distance between two crests = 8 m

The distance between the two crests is called wavelength.

So, wavelength, λ = 8 m

frequency = 2 Hz

Let v be the velocity of wave.

v = f x λ

v = 2 x 8

v = 16 m/s

snow_tiger [21]
I believe that solar energy would be the best energy for my town.  Solar energy is advantageous because the sun is up every day, and because it takes up much less space than than some other sources of renewable energy.  Some disadvantages of solar energy are that if there is cloud cover, hardly any energy will be gained at all.  Another disadvantage is that it is a long term investment that can take a while for it to pay for itself.

A 6.0 g marble is fired vertically upward using a spring gun. The spring must be compressed 9.4 cm if the marble is to just reac
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) \Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J, b) \Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J, c) k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}

Explanation:

a) The change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system is:

\Delta U_{g} = (0.06\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (22\,m)

\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J

b) The change in the elastic potential energy of the spring is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy, then:

\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J

c) The spring constant of the gun is:

\Delta U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x^{2}

k = \frac{2\cdot \Delta U_{k}}{x^{2}}

k = \frac{2\cdot (12.945\,J)}{(0.094\,m)^{2}}

k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}
