"As you sit in a fishing boat, you notice that 12 waves pass the boat every 45 s. If the distance from one crest to the next is

9.2 m , what is the speed of these waves?"
Physics

Answer:

2.4564 m/s

Explanation:

Number of waves in 1 second

\dfrac{12}{45}=0.267\ Hz

This is the frequency 0.267 Hz

The distance mentioned in the question is the

\lambda = Wavelength = 9.2 m

The speed of wave is

v=f\lambda

\Rightarrow v=0.267\times 9.2

\Rightarrow v=2.4564\ m/s

The speed of the wave is 2.4564 m/s

72.0-kg person pushes on a small doorknob with a force of 5.00 N perpendicular to the surface of the door. The doorknob is locat
expeople1 [14]

Answer:I=2 kg-m^2

Explanation:

Given

mass m=72 kg

Force F=5 N

door knob is located at a distance of r=0.8 m from axis

Angular acceleration of door \alpha =2 rad/s^2

Torque T=I\alpha =F\times r

where I=moment of inertia

5\times 0.8=I\times 2

I=2 kg-m^2

A flat uniform circular disk (r= 2.00m,
dusya [7]

Incomplete question.The Complete question is here

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.00 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the horizontal plane about a friction less axis perpendicular to the center of the disk. A 40.0-kg person, standing 1.25 m from the axis, begins to run on the disk in a circular path and has a tangential speed of 2.00 m/s relative to the ground.

a.) Find the resulting angular speed of the disk (in rad/s) and describe the direction of the rotation.

b.) Determine the time it takes for a spot marking the starting point to pass again beneath the runner's feet.

Answer:

(a)ω = 1 rad/s

(b)t = 2.41 s

Explanation:

(a) initial angular momentum = final angular momentum  

0 = L for disk + L............... for runner

0 = Iω² - mv²r ...................they're opposite in direction

0 = (MR²/2)(ω²) - mv²r ................where is ω is angular speed which is required in part (a) of question

0 = [(1.00×10²kg)(2.00 m)² / 2](ω²) - (40.0 kg)(2.00 m/s)²(1.25 m)

0=200ω²-200

200=200ω²

ω = 1 rad/s

b.)

lets assume the "starting point" is a point marked on the disk.

The person's angular speed is  

v/r = (2.00 m/s) / (1.25 m) = 1.6 rad/s

As the person and the disk are moving in opposite directions, the person will run part of a revolution and the turning disk would complete the whole revolution.

(angle) + (angle disk turns) = 2π

(1.6 rad/s)(t) + ωt = 2π

t[1.6 rad/s + 1 rad/s] = 2π

t = 2.41 s

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

r=6.05km/hr

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal

Explanation:

A bird is flying east at 5.2 kilometers/hour relative to the air. There's a crosswind blowing at 3.1 kilometers/hour toward the south relative to the ground. What is the bird's velocity relative to the ground? State your answer to one decimal place

can be solved using pythagoras theorem

r^2=o^2+a^2

r^2=5.2^2+3.1^2

r^2=36.65

r=6.1km/hr is te birds velocity relative to the ground

tanz=5.2/3.1

z=tan^-1(5,2/3.1)

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal
