Answer:

v doubles and f is unchanged

Explanation:

According to the formula v = f¶

Where v is the velocity of the wave

f is the frequency

¶ is the wavelength

Velocity is directly proportional to wavelength. Direct proportionality shows that increase in velocity will cause an increase in the wavelength and decrease in velocity will also cause a decrease in wavelength with the frequency not changing since the velocity and wavelength are both increasing and decreasing at the same rate.

According to the question, if the wavelength is doubled, the velocity (v) will also double while the frequency (f) remains unchanged.

Answer:

(i) v doubles and f is unchanged

Explanation:

The relationship between wave speed (v), frequency (f) and wavelength (λ) of a string wave is given by;

v = f x λ

As seen, the wave speed is directly proportional to the frequency provided the wavelength remains constant. Also, if frequency is left constant, the wave speed will be directly proportional to the wavelength. Also the frequency increases as wavelength decreases and vice-versa while the speed remains constant.

Therefore, when the wavelength is doubled, the wave speed will also be doubled while frequency remains unchanged.

What will happen to the 0.1 N force if one charges is increased by a factor of 3?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges is given by the following expression

F = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}  Q₁ and Q₂ are two charges and d is distance between two.

.1 = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}

If Q₁ becomes three times , force will become 3 times . Hence force becomes .3 N in the first case.

Force F = .3 N

If charge becomes one fourth , force also becomes one fourth .

F= \frac{.1}{4}

= .025 N.

Steel is made of atoms of iron and carbon. Would iron and carbon form metallic bonds? Explain your answer choice.
tino4ka555 [31]

Sample Response: "No, steel and carbon would not form metallic bonds because metallic bonds only form between metals. Iron is a metal, but carbon is not."

You have a two-wheel trailer that you pull behind your ATV. Two children with a combined mass of 76.2 kg hop on board for a ride
marin [14]

a) The spring constant is 12,103 N/m

b) The mass of the trailer 2,678 kg

c) The frequency of oscillation is 0.478 Hz

d) The time taken for 10 oscillations is 20.9 s

Explanation:

a)

When the two children jumps on board of the trailer, the two springs compresses by a certain amount

\Delta x = 6.17 cm = 0.0617 m

Since the system is then in equilibrium, the restoring force of the two-spring system must be equal to the weight of the children, so we can write:

2mg = k'\Delta x (1)

where

m = 76.2 kg is the mass of each children

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

k' is the equivalent spring constant of the 2-spring system

For two springs in parallel each with constant k,

k'=k+k=2k

Substituting into (1) and solving for k, we find:

2mg=2k\Delta x\\k=\frac{mg}{\Delta x}=\frac{(76.2)(9.8)}{0.0617}=12,103 N/m

b)

The period of the oscillating system is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k'}}

where

And for the system in the problem, we know that

T = 2.09 s is the period of oscillation

m is the mass of the trailer

k'=2k=2(12,103)=24,206 N/m is the equivalent spring constant of the system

Solving the equation for m, we find the mass of the trailer:

m=(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2 k'=(\frac{2.09}{2\pi})^2 (24,206)=2,678 kg

c)

The frequency of oscillation of a spring-mass system is equal to the reciprocal of the period, therefore:

f=\frac{1}{T}

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

In  this problem, we have

T = 2.09 s is the period

Therefore, the frequency of oscillation is

f=\frac{1}{2.09}=0.478 Hz

d)

The period of the system is

T = 2.09 s

And this time is the time it takes for the trailer to complete one oscillation.

In this case, we want to find the time it takes for the trailer to complete 10 oscillations (bouncing up and down 10 times). Therefore, the time taken will be the period of oscillation multiplied by 10.

Therefore, the time needed for 10 oscillations is:

t=10T=10(2.09)=20.9 s

A rocket passing the earth with high speed will look shorter for the stationary observer measuring the size on earth than travel
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This can be explained by the special theory of relativity for length contraction.

Length contraction is observed in the direction of motion of an object when an object moves with speed closer to the speed of light.

The length of the rocket in this case, appears shorter to the observer on earth in the stationary reference frame which is improper frame whereas the traveler in the rocket is in the same inertial frame which is proper for the rocket's size measurement.

(a) What is the current involved when a truck battery sets in motion 720 C of charge in 4.00 s while starting an engine? (b) How
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

(a) Current flowing through truck battery is 180 A

(b) Time taken in calculator is 333.33 s

Explanation:

(a) Given:

The charge on the truck battery,q = 720 C

Time, t = 4.00 s

Consider I be the current flowing through truck battery.

The relation between current, charge and time is:

I = q/t

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

I=\frac{720}{4}

I = 180 A

(b) Given:

The charge on the calculator,q = 7.00 C

The current flowing through calculator, I = 0.3 mA = 0.3 x 10⁻³ A

Consider t be the time.

The relation between current, charge and time is:

t = q/I

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

t=\frac{1}{0.3\times10^{-3} }

I = 333.33 s
