Answer:

(a) T = 10 s

(b) f = 0.1 Hz

(c) λ = 32 m

(d) v = 3.2 m/s

(e) Insufficient data

Explanation:

(a)

Time period is defined as the time interval required for one wave to pass. Therefore, the time period can be given as:

T = Period = Time Taken/No. of Waves

T = 50 s/5

<u>T = 10 s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Frequency is the reciprocal of time period:

f = frequency = 1/T

f = 1/10 s

<u>f = 0.1 Hz</u>

<u></u>

(c)

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs:

<u>λ = Wavelength = 32 m</u>

<u></u>

(d)

Speed of wave is given by the following formula:

Speed = v = fλ

v = (0.1 Hz)(32 m)

v = 3.2 m/s

(e)

Amplitude cannot be found with given data.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Due to brown knob which controls its angle.

Explanation:

When water comes out at an angle instead of going straight up, water does not shoot as high as before because its speed is controlled by the brown knob in order to throw water in another angle. If we adjust the brown knob present at the opening of hose pipe in a straight angle the water shoot very high because water moves with high pressure and no barrier is present between its way.

Which of the following are true statements? A. Like charges repel B. Unlike charges repel C. Unlike charges attract or D. Charge
Brums [2.3K]

Answer: The correct answers are (A) and (C).

Explanation:

The expression from electrostatic force is as follows;

F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{1}}{r^{2} }

Here, F is the electrostatic force, k is constant, r is the distance between the charges and q_{1},q_{1} are the charges.

The electrostatic force follows inverse square law. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges. It is directly proportional to the product of the charges.

Like charges repel each other. There is a force of electrostatic repulsion between the like charges. Unlike charges attract each other. There is a force of electrostatic attraction between unlike charges.

The charges are induced on the neutral object when it is placed nearby the charged object without actually touching it.

Therefore, the true statements from the given options are as follows;

Like charges repel.

Unlike charges attract.

In a circuit of 2 lamps in parallel if the current in one lamp is 2a the current in the other lamp is?
ioda

In a circuit having 2 lamps are connected in parallel to a battery

then the two lamps will be having the same potential as the battery

i.e

V_{1} = V_{2} = V_{battery}

As per Ohm's law,

I_{1} = \frac{V_{1}}{R_{1}} and I_{2} = \frac{V}{R_{2} }

In other words, each lamp's current is inversely related to its individual resistance. We only know the current in one of the bulbs in this specific instance. We would therefore need further information in order to calculate the current in the other light. Therefore, there isn't enough data to make a statement.

Under the assumption that all physical parameters, including temperature, remain constant, Ohm's law asserts that "the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it".

how long will it take the bird to cover a ground distance of 550 km from north to south? (note that even on cloudy nights, many
Trava [24]

The direction of the bird's velocity can be adjusted so that the wind and the resulting bird velocity will both be in the southerly direction.

(a) The bird should fly at an angle of roughly South 23.58° East if it wants to move directly southward in relation to the earth.

(b) The bird would need around 5.46 hours to fly 500 kilometers from North to South.

The components of the velocity are v(x) and v(y).

The magnitude of the velocity of the bird is 100 km/h

The orientation of the bird corresponds to that of North and South.

The magnitude of the velocity of the wind is 40 km/h

East-west is the direction of the wind.

(a) The component vector of the two velocities are;

The velocity of the bird, v(y) = -100(j)

The velocity of wind, v(x) = 40(i)

If the bird has a component of velocity to accommodate the wind velocity, the direction of its movement will be southerly.

Let θ be the angle of the direction of the bird relative to the negative x-axis, therefore:

-100(j) × cos(θ) = -40·i

θ = cos⁻¹(40/100)

θ ≈ 66.42° in the third quadrat, given that both the y, and x, values are negative.

In the South-West direction, the angle is:

90 - 66.42 ≈ 23.58°

Therefore, to fly directly southward relative to the ground, the bird should fly in the direction of south 23.58° east.

(b) The following is given as the component of the bird's southerly velocity when traveling in the new direction:

v(s) = 100 × sin(θ)

Hence,

Southward velocity,  v(s) = 100 × sin(66.42°)

The time t it takes to travel 500 km, is given as:

d = v(s)t

500 = 100 × sin(66.42°)(t)

t = 5.46 hrs

The bird would need 5.46 hours to fly 500 kilometers from North to South.

The complete question is mentioned below:

Canada geese migrate essentially along a north–south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. If one goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 40-km/h wind is blowing from west to east,

(a) at what angle relative to the north–south direction should this bird head to travel directly southward relative to the ground?

(b) How long will it take the goose to cover a ground distance of 500 km from north to south? (Even on cloudy nights, many birds can navigate by using the earth’s magnetic field to fix the north–south direction.)
