Answer:

d) 3 m/s

Explanation:

As we know by equation of continuity

$A_1v_1 = A_2v_2$

here we have

$A_1 = \pi r^2$

$A_2 = \pi (2r)^2$

$A_2 = 4\pi r^2$

now from above equation we have

$\pi r^2 v_1 = 4\pi r^2 v_2$

$v_2 = \frac{v_1}{4}$

here we have

$v_1 = 12 m/s$

$v_2 = 3 m/s$

Can someone help on this I'm really stuck

Here, "Wavelength is same for both waves" it is the distance between two crests or two consecutive troughs, so, it is constant for both of them, you can easily figure it out.

In short, Your Answer would be "Wavelength"

Hope this helps!

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the pendulum is take

Juli2301 [7.4K]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the period in a simple pendulum, which warns that it is dependent on its length and gravity as follows:

$T =2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Here,

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

We can realize that $2 \pi$ is a constant so it is proportional to the square root of its length over its gravity,

$T \propto \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Since the body is in constant free fall, that is, a point where gravity tends to be zero:

$g \rightarrow 0 \Rightarrow T \rightarrow \infty$

The value of the period will tend to infinity. This indicates that the pendulum will no longer oscillate because both the pendulum and the point to which it is attached are in free fall.

How much heat is lost by 2.0 grams of water if the temperature drops from 31 °C to 29 °C? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/

Elanso [62]

Given :

Mass of water, m = 2 grams.

The temperature of water drops from 31 °C to 29 °C .

The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g • °C).

To Find :

Amount of heat lost in this process.

Solution :

We know, heat lost is given by :

$Heat\ lost,H = ms( T_f - T_i)\\\\H = 2\times 4.184 \times ( 31 - 29 )\ J\\\\H = 16.736\ J$

Therefore, amount of heat lost in this process is 16.736 J.

Two bicycle tires are set rolling with the same initial speed of 4.0 m/s along a long, straight road, and the distance each trav

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The coefficient of rolling friction will be "0.011".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial speed,

$v_i = 4.0 \ m/s$

then,

$v_f=\frac{4.0}{2}$

$=2.0 \ m/s$

Distance,

s = 18.2 m

The acceleration of a bicycle will be:

⇒ $a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}$

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{(2.0)^2-(4.0)^2}{2\times 18.2}$

⇒ $=\frac{4-8}{37}$

⇒ $=\frac{-4}{37}$

⇒ $=0.108 \ m/s^2$

As we know,

⇒ $f=ma$

and,

⇒ $\mu_rmg=ma$

⇒ $\mu_r=\frac{a}{g}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{0.108}{9.8}$

⇒ $=0.011$
