A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s
blondinia [14]

Answer:

1.2 m/s

0.31 m

0.15 m

Explanation:

Time period is

T=2.5\times 2\\\Rightarrow T=5\ s

Frequency is

f=\dfrac{1}{T}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\Rightarrow f=0.2\ Hz

Velocity is given by

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow v=0.2\times 6\\\Rightarrow v=1.2\ m/s

The waves are traveling at 1.2 m/s

Amplitude is given by

A=\dfrac{d}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{0.62}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=0.31\ m

Amplitude is 0.31 m

If d = 0.3 m

A=\dfrac{0.3}{2}=0.15\ m

The amplitude would be 0.15 m. The speed would remain the same.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

To decide where the balls land, we need to determine how long the balls are in the air. Both balls will take 2 seconds to hit the ground.

Explanation:

1) Time played forward : gravity & drag forces are in opposite directions so it takes a longer time to reach the ground. 2) Time played backward : gravity & drag forces are in the same direction so it takes a shorter time to reach the ground.

A large fraction of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation coming from the sun is absorbed by the atmosphere. The main UV absorber in ou
irakobra [83]

Answer:

λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:

v = fλ

where,

v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?

Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:

3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)

λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)

<u>λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm</u>

So, the radiation of <u>320 nm</u> wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.
