Answer: 0.16Hz

Explanation:

Given that:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 0.16 Hertz.

A 2.0 kg puck is at rest on a level table. It is pushed straight north with a constant force of 5N for 1.50 s and then let go. H
lukranit [14]

Answer:

d = 6.32 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a puck, m = 2 kg

It is pushed straight north with a constant force of 5N for 1.50 s and then let go.

We need to find the distance covered by the puck when move from rest in 2.25 s.

We know that,

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\a=2.5\ m/s^2

Let d is the distance moved in 2.25 s. Using second equation of motion,

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5\times (2.25)^2\\\\d=6.32\ m

So, it will move 6.32 m from rest in 2.25 seconds.

A child sleds down a hill with an acceleration of 2.94 m/s2. If her initial speed is 0.0 m/s and her final speed is 17.5 m/s, ho
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Explanation:

Given that the child accelerates uniformly and that both initial (v_{o}) and final speeds (v_{f}), measured in meters per second, and acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, are known, we proceed to use the following kinematic equation to determine the time taken to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom (t), measured in seconds, is:

t = \frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{a} (1)

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 17.5\,\frac{m}{s} and a = 2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then the time taken is:

t = \frac{17.5\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

t = 5.952\,s

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

While researching scuba diving, Pablo reads how hot a tank should get while being filled with air. Which law best explains why t
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Gay-Lussac’s law, because as the pressure increases, the temperature increases

Explanation:

First of all, we can notice that the volume of the tank is fixed: this means that the volume of the air inside is also fixed.

This means that in this situation we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

"for a gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas".

Mathematically:

p\propto T

where p is the pressure in Pascal and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

In this case, the tank is filled with air: this means that the pressure of the gas inside the tank increases. And therefore, according to Gay-Lussac's law, the temperature will increase proportionally, and this explains why the tank gets hot.

An astronaut on an alien planet drops a rock into a crater which is 100 meters deep. The rock hits the bottom of the crater 4 se
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The gravity on this planet is stronger than that of earth.

Explanation:

First we need to find the acceleration due to gravity value of this planet to compare its gravity force with that of the earth. Hence, we will use second equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (0.5)gt²

where,

h = height or depth of crater = 100 m

Vi = Initial Velocity of rock = 0 m/s

t = time = 4 s

g = acceleration due to gravity on this planet = ?

Therefore,

100 m = (0 m/s)(4 s) + (0.5)(g)(4 s)²

g = (200 m)/(16 s²)

g = 12.5 m/s²

on earth:

ge = 9.8 m/s²

Since,

ge < g

Therefore,

<u>The gravity on this planet is stronger than that of earth.</u>
