Answer:

v = 2 cm/s

Explanation:

The equation of the wave is

y(x,t)   =  (2.0cm)*cos(2π*x−4π*t)

Where,

x is measured in cm

t in s

A more general formula for this equation would be

y(x,t)   =  A*cos(k*x−ω*t)

Where,

A = amplitude.

k = the wavenumber

ω = the angular frequency

The velocity of the wave corresponds to

v = ω/k

v = 4π / 2π = 2 cm/s

v = 2 cm/s

A vertical spring gun is used to launch balls into the air. If the spring is compressed by 4.9 cm, the ball of mass 5.5 g is lau
AleksandrR [38]

We know, by conservation of energy :

\dfrac{kx^2}{2}=mgh

Therefore,

\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}

Putting given values, we get :

\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}\\\\\dfrac{4.9^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{50.2}{2\times 50.2}\\\\x_2^2=2\times 4.9^2\\\\x_2 = 4.9\times \sqrt{2}\\\\x_2=6.93\ cm

Therefore, the spring be compressed to 6.93 cm to send the ball twice as high.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain how to find the angle between two nonzero vectors. Choose the correct answer below. A. The angle between two nonzero vec
kozerog [31]

Answer:

θ = Cos⁻¹[A.B/|A||B|]

A. The angle between two nonzero vectors can be found by first dividing the dot product of the two vectors by the product of the two vectors' magnitudes. Then taking the inverse cosine of the result

Explanation:

We can use the formula of the dot product, in order to find the angle between two non-zero vectors. The formula of dot product between two non-zero vectors is written a follows:

A.B = |A||B| Cosθ

where,

A = 1st Non-Zero Vector

B = 2nd Non-Zero Vector

|A| = Magnitude of Vector A

|B| = Magnitude of Vector B

θ = Angle between vector A and B

Therefore,

Cos θ = A.B/|A||B|

<u>θ = Cos⁻¹[A.B/|A||B|]</u>

Hence, the correct answer will be:

<u>A. The angle between two nonzero vectors can be found by first dividing the dot product of the two vectors by the product of the two vectors' magnitudes. Then taking the inverse cosine of the result</u>
