Answer:

given

y=6.0sin(0.020px + 4.0pt)

the general wave equation moving in the positive directionis

y(x,t) = ymsin(kx -?t)

a) the amplitude is

ym = 6.0cm

b)

we have the angular wave number as

k = 2p /?

or

? = 2p / 0.020p

=1.0*102cm

c)

the frequency is

f = ?/2p

= 4p/2p

= 2.0 Hz

d)

the wave speed is

v = f?

= (100cm)(2.0Hz)

= 2.0*102cm/s

e)

since the trignometric function is (kx -?t) , sothe wave propagates in th -x direction

f)

the maximum transverse speed is

umax =2pfym

= 2p(2.0Hz)(6.0cm)

= 75cm/s

g)

we have

y(3.5cm ,0.26s) = 6.0cmsin[0.020p(3.5) +4.0p(0.26)]

= -2.0cm

A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200N. A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vector
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The second vector \vec{F_2} points due West with a magnitude of 600N

Explanation:

The original vector \vec{F_1} points with a magnitude of 200N due east, the Resultant vector \vec{R} points due west (that's how east/west direction can be interpreted, from east to west) with a magnitude of  400N. If we choose East as the positive direction and West as the negative one, we can write the following vectorial equation:

\vec{F_1}+\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}\implies\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}-\vec{F_1}=-400N-200N=-600N

With the negative sign signifying that the vector points west.

Strong winds causing a vehicle to lose all control is called
mixer [17]
The answer to this question is "Buffeting". This is an unusual strong wind condition that resulted in the loss of vehicle control. This condition occurs in roads and bridges, across and along mountains that affected vehicles control. The drivers must be alert and put their full attention to overcome this condition.

Which characteristic is common to all permanent magnets?
yanalaym [24]

I can't eliminate answers. Some of them are just wrong.  A is incorrect. There is no such thing as a 1 pole magnet.

I wouldn't use B. If it is just a bar it is not a magnet.

C is the traditional answer

D is a space filler. It is just there to occupy a letter.

When the rocket launched the astronauts aboard experienced an acceleration of 32 m/s^2. If one of the astronauts had a mass of 6
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The question is somewhat vague in that acceleration is not exactly defined:

Usually a = (v2 - v1) / t    which would imply that

a = 32 / g = 32 / 9.8 = 3.27   the acceleration due to change in speed of the rocket

One can also say that the astronaut experiences an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 just by being motionless on the surface of the earth.

Then a = (32 - 9.8) / 9.8 = 2.27 due to the acceleration of the rocket

If we assume the first condition then

F = 65 kg * 3.27 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 2083 N

A backpack weighs 8.2 newtons and has a mass of 5kg on the moon. What is the strength of the gravity on the moon?
Pavel [41]
Weight is equivalent to the product of the mass of an object and the strength of the gravitational field.

Using:
F = ma

a = 8.2 / 5
a = 1.64 N/kg

The gravitational field strength is equivalent to 1.64 N/kg.
