A wave traveling in the positive x-direction with a frequency of 50.0 Hz is shown in the figure below. Find the following values
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or \lambda=20.0cm

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{1}{T} were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

50.0=\frac{1}{T} so

T=\frac{1}{50.0} and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

50.0=\frac{v}{20.0} and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!

A force of 1 N is the only horizontal force exerted on a block, and the horizontal acceleration of the block is
SVEN [57.7K]

The mass of the first block will be three times the mass of the second block.

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force acting on a body is directly proportional to the acceleration as shown;

F\ \alpha \ a

F = ma

F is the acting force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration of the body

Given the following parameters

Constant force F =  1N

For the first block with the acceleration of "a"

1 = m₁a

a = m₁/1

m₁ = a .................1

For the second block, acceleration is thrice that of the first. This means;

F = m(3a)

1 = 3ma

m_2=\frac{1}{3a} ..........................2

Divide both equations

\frac{m_1}{m_2} =\frac{a}{(\frac{1}{3a} )}\\\frac{m_1}{m_2} = 3\\m_1 = 3m_2

From the calculation, we can conclude that the mass of the first block will be three times the mass of the second block.

The change in the internal energy of a system that releases 2,500 j of heat and that does 7,655 j of work on the surroundings is
g100num [7]

We are given that the system “releases” heat of 2,500 J, and that it “does work on the surroundings” by 7,655 J.

The highlighted words releases and does work on the surroundings all refers to that it is the system itself which expends energy to do those things. Therefore the action of releasing heat and doing work has both magnitudes of negative value. Therefore:

heat released = - 2, 500 J

work done = - 7, 655 J

Which means that the total internal energy change of the system is:

change in internal energy = heat released + work

<span>change in internal energy = - 2, 500 J +  - 7, 655 J</span>

<span>change in internal energy = -10,155 J</span>
