What is the wavelength of an earthquake wave if it has a speed of 7 km/s and a frequency of 12 Hz?

1 answer:

7 0

Wavelength = speed / frequency
= 7 km/s / 12 /s
= 0.58 Km

In short, Your Answer would be 0.58 Km or 580 m

Hope this helps!

The launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m, where

lora16 [44]

Answer:

1.6 m

Explanation:

Given that the launch velocity of a toy car launcher is determined to be 5 m/s. If the car is to be launched from a height of 0.5 m.

The time for landing should be calculated by using the second equation of motion formula

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Let U = 0

0.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

0.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 0.5 / 4.9

t^2 = 0.102

t = 0.32 s

The target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it at:

Distance = 5 × 0.32

distance = 1.597 m

Distance = 1.6 m

Therefore, the target should be placed so that the toy car lands on it 1.6 metres away.

raketka [301]

Answer:

$\rho = 1848.03 kg m^{-3}$

Explanation:

given data:

density of water \rho = 1 gm/cm^3 = 1000 kg/m^3

height of water = 20 cm =0.2 m

Pressure p = 1.01300*10^5 Pa

pressure at bottom

$P = P_{fluid} + P_{h_2 o}$

$P = P_{fluid} + \rho g h$

$P_{fluid} = P - \rho g h$

= 1.01300*10^5 - 1000*0.2*9.8

= 99340 Pa

$p_{fluid} = P_{atm} + \rho g h_{fluid}$ h_[fluid} = 0.307m

$99340 = 104900 + \rho *9.8*0.307$

$\rho = 1848.03 kg m^{-3}$

A charge of -3.30 nC is placed at the origin of an xy-coordinate system, and a charge of 2.05 nC is placed on the y axis at y =

Elis [28]

Answer:

$F_{3h}=39065.298\times 10^9\ N$ attractive toward +x axis is the net horizontal force

$F_v=80062.47\times 10^9$ attractive toward +y axis is the net vertical force

Explanation:

Given:

charge at origin, $Q_0=-3.35\times 10^{-6}\ C$

magnitude of second charge, $Q_2=2.05\times 10^{-6}\ C$

magnitude of third charge, $Q_3=5\times 10^{-6}\ C$

position of second charge, $(x_2,y_2)\equiv(0,4.35)\ cm$

position of third charge, $(x_3,y_3)\equiv(3.1,3.8)\ cm$

Now the distance between the charge at at origin and the second charge:

$d_2=\sqrt{(x_2-0)^2+(y_2-0)^2}$

$d_2=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(4.35-0)^2}$

$d_2=0.0435\ m$

Now the distance between the charge at at origin and the third charge:

$d_3=\sqrt{(x_3-0)^2+(y_3-0)^2}$

$d_3=\sqrt{(3.1-0)^2+(3.8-0)^2}$

$d_3=0.04904\ m$

Now the force due to second charge:

$F_2=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{Q_0.Q_2}{d_2^2}$

$F_2=9\times 10^9\times \frac{3.3\times 2.05}{0.0435^2}$

$F_2=32175.98\times 10^9\ N$ attractive towards +y

Now the force due to third charge:

$F_3=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{Q_0.Q_3}{d_3^2}$

$F_3=9\times 10^9\times \frac{3.3\times 5}{0.04904^2}$

$F_3=61748.38\times 10^9\ N$ attractive

Now the its horizontal component:

$F_{3h}=\frac{3.1}{4.9} \times 61748.38\times 10^9$

$F_{3h}=39065.298\times 10^9\ N$ attractive toward +x axis

Now the its vertical component:

$F_{3v}=\frac{3.8}{4.9} \times 61748.38\times 10^9$

$F_{3v}=47886.49\times 10^9\ N$ upwards attractive

Now the net vertical force:

$F_v=F_{3v}+F_2$

$F_v=47886.49\times 10^9+32175.98\times 10^9$

$F_v=80062.47\times 10^9$
