The speed of an object and the direction in which it moves constitute a vector quantity known as the velocity. an ostrich is run

ning at a speed of 14.0 m/s in a direction of 54.0 ° north of west. what is the magnitude of the ostrich's velocity component that is directed (a) due north and (b) due west?

Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
<span>west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s</span>

What is a concentration?​
Tresset [83]

Answer/Explanation:

In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Several types of mathematical description can be distinguished: mass concentration, molar concentration, number concentration, and volume concentration.

A concentration refers to a subject or study within a specific major. As part of the degree coursework, concentration classes count toward your major requirements as well.

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}    .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}    .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz
