Answer:

C) Amplitude.

Explanation:

By definition, the amplitude of wave is defined as the distance from the rest position to the highest or lowest point of the wave.

The highest and lowest points of the wave are called crests and troughs respectively; Therefore, the amplitude of the waves is also said to be the height of the wave from its rest position to its crest—and also the height of the from the rest position it its trough.

This means Choice C (amplitude) is the correct term used to describe the height of a wave from its rest position to its crest.

<em>P.S: Choice A, the crest height, can also be the correct term, but the term ''amplitude'' is often used and is more technical. </em>

k0ka [10]

Answer:

So it will lift the mass by h = 17 m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that

$Q_1 = W + Q_2$

here we know that

$Q_1 = 300 J$

$Q_2 = 50 J$

now we have

$W = 300 - 50$

$W = 250 J$

so work done by the engine is 250 J

now we have

$W = mgh$

$250 = 1.5 \times 9.81 \times h$

$h = 17 m$

When an object oscillating in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. What are its

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Speed = 0

Restoring force = maximum

Explanation:

Suppose this situation as a spring with a mass attached to it, that oscilates.

The force that the spring does (the restoring force in this case) is something like

F = K*L

where K is the constant of the spring, and L is the difference between the length of the spring (stretched) and the length of the spring at rest.

Then, when the harmonic oscillator is at its maximum displacement, L takes its maximum value, which means that at this point the restoring force must also have a maximum.

And for the velocity, at this point we have the maximum displacement, this means that, if the mass was moving to the right, after this point the mass stops going to the right, and then returns to the equilibrium position to the left.

Then the velocity has a change of sign, (like an object that reached its maximum height) this means that at that exact moment, the velocity must be zero.

Then:

Speed = 0

Restoring force = maximum

The motor on a helicopter turns at an angular speed of 6.2 x 102 revolutions per minute. (a) Express this angular speed in radia

arsen [322]

Answer:

64.93 rad/s
38.956 km

Explanation:

(a)

$\dfrac{6.2\cdot 10^2\,\text{rev}}{60\,\text{s}}\times\dfrac{2\pi\,\text{rad}}{\text{rev}}=\dfrac{62\pi\,\text{rad}}{3\,\text{s}}\approx\boxed{64.93\,\text{rad/s}}$

(b)

$d=r\theta=(3.0\,\text{m})(2.0\cdot 10^2\,\text{s})\left(\dfrac{62\pi\,\text{rad}}{3\,\text{s}}\right)=124\pi\cdot 10^2\,\text{m}=\boxed{38\,956\,\text{m}}$

if a person with a mass of 70kg is standing on scale in an elevator when the cable snaps, what will the reading on the scale be

dybincka [34]

Answer:

The reading will be the same.

Explanation:

Mass does not depend upon anything and it remains the same anywhere. What changes is the weight of the body because it depends upon gravity and is different at different places.
