A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency?

Physics
1 answer:
Ann [662]2 years ago

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.

Can anyone solve these for my by using unit vectors? Can you also please show your work
Oxana [17]

4. The Coyote has an initial position vector of \vec r_0=(15.5\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath.

4a. The Coyote has an initial velocity vector of \vec v_0=\left(3.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\,\vec\imath. His position at time t is given by the vector

\vec r=\vec r_0+\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2

where \vec a is the Coyote's acceleration vector at time t. He experiences acceleration only in the downward direction because of gravity, and in particular \vec a=-g\,\vec\jmath where g=9.80\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}. Splitting up the position vector into components, we have \vec r=r_x\,\vec\imath+r_y\,\vec\jmath with

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

r_y=15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

The Coyote hits the ground when r_y=0:

15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=1.8\,\mathrm s

4b. Here we evaluate r_x at the time found in (4a).

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(1.8\,\mathrm s)=6.3\,\mathrm m

5. The shell has initial position vector \vec r_0=(1.52\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath, and we're told that after some time the bullet (now separated from the shell) has a position of \vec r=(3500\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\imath.

5a. The vertical component of the shell's position vector is

r_y=1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

We find the shell hits the ground at

1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=0.56\,\mathrm s

5b. The horizontal component of the bullet's position vector is

r_x=v_0t

where v_0 is the muzzle velocity of the bullet. It traveled 3500 m in the time it took the shell to fall to the ground, so we can solve for v_0:

3500\,\mathrm m=v_0(0.56\,\mathrm s)\implies v_0=6300\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

A factory worker pushes a crate of mass 31.0 kg a distance of 4.35 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizon
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a. 79.1 N

b. 344 J

c. 344 J

d. 0 J

e. 0 J

Explanation:

a. Since the crate has a constant velocity, its net force must be 0 according to Newton's 1st law. The push force F_p by the worker must be equal to the friction force F_f on the crate, which is the product of friction coefficient μ and normal force N:

Let g = 9.81 m/s2

F_p = F_f = \mu N = \mu mg = 0.26 * 31 * 9.81 = 79.1 N

b. The work is done on the crate by this force is the product of its force F_p and the distance traveled s = 4.35

W_p = F_ps = 79.1*4.35 = 344 J

c. The work is done on the crate by friction force is also the product of friction force and the distance traveled s = 4.35

W_f = F_fs = -79.1*4.35 = -344 J

This work is negative because the friction vector is in the opposite direction with the distance vector

d. As both the normal force and gravity are perpendicular to the distance vector, the work done by those forces is 0. In other words, these forces do not make any work.

e. The total work done on the crate would be sum of the work done by the pushing force and the work done by friction

W_p + W_f = 344 - 344 = 0 J
