Answer:

A) The wave equation is given as

y(x,t) = A\cos(kx + \omega t)=(3.3\times 10^{-2})\cos(0.004x + 5.05t)\\

According to the above equation, k = 0.004 and ω = 5.05.

Using the following identities, we can find the period of the wave.

\omega = 2\pi f\\ f = 1/ T

T = 1.25 s.

For the horizontal distance travelled by one period of time, x = λ.

\lambda = 2\pi / k = 2\pi / 0.004 = 1.57\times 10^3~m

y(x = \lambda,t = T) = 0.033\cos(0.004*1.57*\10^3 + 5.05*1.25) = 0.033~m

B) The wave number, k = 0.004 . The number of waves per second is the frequency, so f = 0.8.

C) The propagation speed of the wave is

v = \lambda f = 1.57\times 10^3 * 0.8 = 1.256\times 10^3~m/s

The velocity of the wave is the derivative of the position function.

v(x,t) = \frac{dy(x,t)}{dt} = -(5.05\times 0.033)\sin(0.004x + 5.05t)

The maximum velocity is when the derivative of the velocity function is equal to zero.

\frac{dv_y(x,t)}{dt} = -(5.05)^2(0.033)\cos(0.004*1.57\times 10^3 + 5.05t) = 0

In order this to be zero, cosine term must be equal to zero.

0.004*1.57\times 10^3 + 5.05t = 5\pi /2\\t = 0.31~s

The reason that cosine term is set to be 5π/2 is that time cannot be zero. For π/2 and 3π/2, t<0.

v(x=\lambda, t = 0.31) = -(5.05\times0.033)\sin(0.004\times 1.57\times 10^3 + 5.05\times 0.31) = -0.166~m/s

The orbital radius of an electron in a hydrogen atom is 0.846 nm. What is its de Broglie wavelength?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The  value  is  \lambda   = 1.329 *10^{-9} \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  orbital radius is  r =  0.846nm =  0.846 *10^{-9} \ m

Generally the de Broglie wavelength is mathematically represented as

      \lambda  =  \frac{2 *  \pi  r}{4}

substituting values

     \lambda  =  \frac{ 2 * 3.142  *  0.846 *10^{-9}}{4}

    \lambda   = 1.329 *10^{-9} \  m

A 0.547 kg pizza is thrown straight up in the air. At a height of 2.30 m above the surface of the earth it has a speed of 5.00 m
natima [27]

Answer:

The total mechanical energy of the pizza crust is 19.2 J.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is that which a body or a system obtains as a result of the speed of its movement or its specific position, and which is capable of producing mechanical work. Then:

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total mechanical energy

Kinetic energy is a form of energy. It is defined as the energy associated with bodies that are in motion and this energy depends on the mass and speed of the body.

Kinetic energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a certain mass and in a position of rest, until it reaches a certain speed.

Kinetic energy is represented by the following formula:

Ec = ½ *m*v²

Where Ec is kinetic energy, which is measured in Joules (J), m is mass measured in kilograms (kg), and v is velocity measured in meters over seconds (m / s).

In this case:

  • m=0.547 kg
  • v= 5 m/s

Replacing:

Ec = ½ *0.547 kg*(5 m/s)²

and solving you get:

Ec= 6.8375 J

On the other hand, potential energy is the energy that measures the ability of a system to perform work based on its position. In other words, this is the energy that a body has at a certain height above the ground.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy associated with the gravitational force. This will depend on the relative height of an object to some reference point, the mass, and the force of gravity. Then for an object with mass m, at height h, the expression applied to the gravitational energy of the object is:

Ep = m*g*h

Where Ep is the potential energy in joules (J), m is the mass in kilograms (kg) is h the height in meters (m) and g is the acceleration of fall in m / s² (approximately 9.81 m/s²)

In this case:

  • m= 0.547 kg
  • g= 9.81 m/s²
  • h= 2.30 m

Replacing

Ep= 0.547 kg *9.81 m/s²* 2.30 m

and solving you get:

Ep= 12.342 J

So:

Total mechanical energy= 12.342 J + 6.8375 J

Total mechanical energy= 19.1795 J≅ 19.2 J

<u><em>The total mechanical energy of the pizza crust is 19.2 J.</em></u>

Which is produced in a synthesis reaction?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Single Compound

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction takes two or more reactants and reacts chemically to turn them all into one substance.  

An example of a synthesis reaction is the reaction that takes place between sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) to create table salt.
