Answer:
I did this essay before, its not hard. Just read through it carefully and you'll figure it out. or just ask you mom, dad, guardian, or teacher for help
wavelength =wavevelocity
--——————
Frequency
Frequency = 1/T => 1 / 6.73 = 0.1486
Wave velocity = L/T => 3.75 / 6.73 = 0.5572
Therefore, wave length = 0.5572/0.1486 = 3.75m
Answer:
(1) V = 0.2 J (2) 0.05J
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
K = 160 N/m
x = 0.05 m
Now,
(1) we solve for the initial potential energy stored
Thus,
V = 1/2 kx² = 0.5 * 160 * (0.05)²
Therefore V = 0.2 J
(2)Now, we solve for how much of the internal energy is produced as the toy springs up to its maximum height.
By using the energy conversion, we have the following
ΔV = mgh
=(0.1/9.8) * 9.8 * 1.5 = 0.15J
The internal energy = 0.2 -0.15
=0.05J
This is more to do with mathematics than physics,
but the square root of gravity on its own means nothing, its simply a acceleration due to gravity near the earth surface.
trying to find the speed of a falling object is a simple conservation of energy problem, then it has a meaning in that context.
however standing alone, it has no bearing to the real world. it is simply a mathematical term or construct we use in order to explain the real world. you see this all over the place in physics, you just have to get used to it.
for example:
mv^2=mhg
v^2=gh
v= SQRT(gh)
=SQRT(g)SQRT(h)
so SQRT means nothing on its own, simply a mathematical term to used to calculate the effects and actions in the real world.
i cant really compare it to Pi, sorry
but i hope you have a better understanding :)
