A child on a playground swing makes a complete to-and-fro swing each two seconds. The frequency of the swing is

1 answer:

4 0

Frequency=f
T=period of motion
f=1/T therefore f=1/2=0.500Hz or 0.5Hz

Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask. Thank you.

The focal length of the lens of a simple digital camera is 40 mm, and it is originally focused on a person 25 m away. In what di

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here image distance is fixed .

In the first case if v be image distance

1 / v - 1 / -25 = 1 / .05

1 / v = 1 / .05 - 1 / 25

= 20 - .04 = 19.96

v = .0501 m = 5.01 cm

In the second case

u = 4 ,

1 / v - 1 / - 4 = 1 / .05

1 / v = 20 - 1 / 4 = 19.75

v = .0506 = 5.06 cm

So lens must be moved forward by 5.06 - 5.01 = .05 cm ( away from film )

Two identical loudspeakers 2.00 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standi

ki77a [65]

Answer:

The lowest possible frequency of sound for which this is possible is 1307.69 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, Abby is standing 5.00m in front of one of the speakers, perpendicular to the line joining the speakers.

First, we will determine his distance from the second speaker using the Pythagorean theorem

l₂ = √(2.00²+5.00²)

l₂ = √4+25

l₂ = √29

l₂ = 5.39 m

Hence, the path difference is

ΔL = l₂ - l₁

ΔL = 5.39 m - 5.00 m

ΔL = 0.39 m

From the formula for destructive interference

ΔL = (n+1/2)λ

where n is any integer and λ is the wavelength

n = 1 in this case, the lowest possible frequency corresponds to the largest wavelength, which corresponds to the smallest value of n.

Then,

0.39 = (1+ 1/2)λ

0.39 = (3/2)λ

0.39 = 1.5λ

∴ λ = 0.39/1.5

λ = 0.26 m

From

v = fλ

f = v/λ

f = 340 / 0.26

f = 1307.69 Hz

Hence, the lowest possible frequency of sound for which this is possible is 1307.69 Hz.

A delivery truck travels 2.8 km North, 1.0 km East, and 1.6 km South. The final displacement from the origin is ___km to the ___

34kurt

Answer:

The final displacement from the origin is 1.6 km to the NE

Explanation:

The directions in which the delivery truck travels are;

1) 2.8 km North = 2.8· $\hat j$ , in vector form

2) 1.0 km East = 1.0· $\hat i$ , in vector form

3) 1.6 km South = -1.6· $\hat j$ , in vector form

Therefore, to find the final displacement, Δx, of the delivery truck, we add the individual displacements as follows;

Final displacement, Δd = 2.8· $\hat j$ + 1.0· $\hat i$ +(-1.6· $\hat j$ ) = 1.2· $\hat j$ + 1.0· $\hat i$

Final displacement, = 1.0· $\hat i$ + 1.2· $\hat j$

Where;

Δx = The displacement in the x-direction = 1.0· $\hat i$

Δy = The displacement in the y-direction = 1.2· $\hat j$

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector is given as follows

$\left | d \right |$ = √((Δx)² + (Δy)²) = √(1² + 1.2²) ≈ 1.6 (To the nearest tenth)

The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector ≈ 1.6 km

The direction of the resultant vector is positive for both the east and north direction, therefore, the direction of the resultant vector = NE

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the delivery truck is approximately 1.6 km, NE from the origin.
