The period of a mechanical wave is 5 seconds. What is the frequency of the wave?

1 answer:

8 0

The frequency of a wave is just the reciprocal of the period.For this one . . .
Frequency = 1/(period) = 1/(5 sec) = 0.2 per sec (0.2 Hz) .

Ishani and John now try a problem involving a charging capacitor. An uncharged capacitor with C = 6.81 μF and a resistor with R

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$Q=81.72\times10^{-6}C$

$I=2.1\times10^{-5}A$

Explanation:

The maximum charge on the capacitor will be, at the end of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

$Q=CV=(6.81\times10^{-6}F)(12V)=81.72\times10^{-6}C$

The maximum current on the resistor will be, at the beginning of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

$I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{12V}{5.8\times10^{5}\Omega}=2.1\times10^{-5}A$

The earth exerts the necessary centripetal force on an orbiting satellite to keep it moving in a circle at constant speed. Which

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

E) The centripetal force is always perpendicular to the velocity.

Explanation:

Due to gravity and inertia, the satellite follows a uniform circular motion. In this movement, the velocity is always tangent to the orbit and the centripetal force is directed towards the center. Therefore, there is no net acceleration in the same direction of velocity, which implies that it remains constant.
