What is mean by the net displacement in transverse wave

Physics
1 answer:
natta225 [31]4 years ago

In a transverse wave, the particles are disturbed in a direction perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Thus, waves travel through a medium with no net displacement of the distance between two successive particles of wave that are in wavelength.

A 64 kg cross-country skier glides over snow. Thecoefficient
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the skier is 5.309 km

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the skier, m = 64 kg

Coefficient of friction between the ski and the snow, \mu_{k} = 0.50

Mass of snow, M = 5.0 kg

Now,

To calculate the distance, 's' traveled by the skier, in order to melt 5.0 kg of snow:

We know that:

f = \mu_{k}N

where

\mu_{k} = coefficient of friction

N = Normal Reaction

N = mg

Thus

f = \mu_{k}mg                           (1)

Also,

fs = ML_{f}                                  (2)  

where

L_{f} = 3.33\times 10^{5}\ J/kg = Latent Heat of fusion

Thus from eqn (1) and (2):

s = \frac{ML_{f}}{\mu_{k}mg}

s = \frac{5\times 3.33\times 10^{5}}{0.50\times 64\times 9.8}

s = 5.309 km

A river flows due east at 1.70 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v
ad-work [718]

Answer:

a)

v = 14.1028 m/s  

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

b)

the required distance is 40.98 m

Explanation:

Given that;

velocity of the river u = 1.70 m/s

velocity of boat v = 14.0 m/s

Now to get the velocity of the boat relative to shore;

( north of east), we say

a² + b² = c²

(1.70)² + (14.0)² = c²

2.89 + 196 = c²

198.89 = c²

c = √198.89

c = 14.1028 m/s  

tan∅ = v/u = 14 / 1.7 =  8.23529

∅ = tan⁻¹ ( 8.23529 ) = 83.0765° north of east

Therefore, the velocity of the boat relative to shore is;

v = 14.1028 m/s  

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

b)  

width of river = 340 m,

ow far downstream has the boat moved by the time it reaches the north shore in meters = ?

we say;

340sin( 90° - 83.0765°)

⇒ 340sin( 6.9235°)

= 40.98 m

Therefore, the required distance is 40.98 m
