<h2>Entire trip takes 1.22 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = 0.866 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 0.866 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 0.866²

                      s = 3.68 m

      Halfway is 3.68 m

Total height = 2 x 3.68 = 7.36 m

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = ?

        Displacement, s  = 7.36 m

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      7.36 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                      t = 1.22 s

Entire trip takes 1.22 seconds.

Being able to see a square in the middle of the image despite not having lines to form a square represents the Gestalt principle
vredina [299]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

C. closure.

Gestalt principle of closure describes how we perceive complete figures even when the information that form the figure is missing.

This is due the fact that our brain responds to the familiar patterns inspite of getting incomplete information.

For instance, in the given question, we are able to perceive an image of square in the center despite not having actual lines that form a square.

Thus, it represents principle of closure.

Frequency of the wave below?
agasfer [191]

It's hard to tell exactly what's happening in that 110 cm that you marked over the wave. What is under the ends of the long arrow ? How many complete waves ? I counted 4.5 complete waves ... maybe ?

If there are 4.5 complete waves in 110cm, then the length of 1 wave is (110/4.5)=24.44cm.

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Frequency = 2m/s /0.2444m

Frequency = 8.18 Hz
