The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

While eating lunch high up in a skyscraper, two construction workers calculate their gravitational potential
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The mass of the other worker is 45 kg

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The gravitational potential energy of one construction worker = The gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

The mass of the lighter construction worker, m₁ = 90 kg

The height level of the lighter construction worker's location = h₁

The height level of the other construction worker's location = h₂ = 2·h₁

The gravitational potential energy, P.E.,  is given as follows;

P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the object at height

g = The acceleration due to gravity

h = The height at which is located

Let P.E.₁ represent the gravitational potential energy of one construction worker and let P.E.₂ represent the gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker

We have;

P.E.₁ = P.E.₂

Therefore;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·h₂

h₂ = 2·h₁

We have;

m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·2·h₁

m₁ = 2·m₂

90 kg = 2 × m₂

m₂ = (90 kg)/2 = 45 kg

The mass of the other construction worker is 45 kg.

The speed of light in air is 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. The speed of light in particular glass is 2.3 x 10^8 m/s. Use the information to de
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

33.61°

Explanation:

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

v is the velocity in the medium  (2.3 × 10⁸ m/s)

c is the speed of light in air = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

So,  

n = 3.0 × 10⁸ /  2.3 × 10⁸

n = 1.31

Using Snell's law as:

n_i\times {sin\theta_i}={n_r}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence  ( 25.0° )

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction  ( ? )

{n_r} is the refractive index of the refraction medium  (air, n=1)

{n_i} is the refractive index of the incidence medium (glass, n=1.31)

Hence,  

1.31\times {sin25.0^0}={1}\times{sin\theta_r}

Angle of refraction = sin^{-1}0.5536 = 33.61°

A train has a constant speed of 10 m/s around a track with a diameter of 45 m what is the centripal acceleration?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a_{c}= 4.44\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

When an object goes on a circular movement, it has a centripetal acceleration that always points toward the center of the circle, it is the responsible of the change of direction in the movement of the object. and that centripetal acceleration is related with the speed in the next way:

a_{c}=\frac{v^{2}}{r}, with v the speed, r the radius of the track that is half of the diameter (22.5 m)

a_{c}=\frac{10^{2}}{22.5}

a_{c}= 4.44\frac{m}{s}
