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

ser-zykov [4K]
We are asked to know the reason why magnetic dipole can be written as U = -m *B. The reason for this was that the negative sign is just showing or indicating the direction of the force. If it if negative, it means that the work done is opposite to the force field.

A 1.00 kg object is attached to a horizontal spring. the spring is initially stretched by 0.500 m, and the object is released fr
valina [46]
The  spring is initially stretched, and the mass released from rest (v=0). The next time the speed becomes zero again is when the spring is fully compressed, and the mass is on the opposite side of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position, after a time t=0.100 s. This corresponds to half oscillation of the system. Therefore, the period of a full oscillation of the system is
T=2 t = 2 \cdot 0.100 s = 0.200 s
Which means that the frequency is
f= \frac{1}{T}= \frac{1}{0.200 s}=5 Hz
and the angular frequency is
\omega=2 \pi f = 2 \pi (5 Hz)=31.4 rad/s

In a spring-mass system, the maximum velocity of the object is given by
v_{max} = A \omega
where A is the amplitude of the oscillation. In our problem, the amplitude of the motion corresponds to the initial displacement of the object (A=0.500 m), therefore the maximum velocity is
v_{max} = A \omega = (0.500 m)(31.4 rad/s)= 15.7 m/s

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>

Inserting the formulas you found for Xman(t) and Xbus(t) into the conditionXman(tcatch)=Xbus(tcatch) , you obtain the following-
lara [203]

Answer:

c > √(2ab)

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the condition for c in such a way that the results have been real

The given equation is

              ½ a t² - c t + b = 0

we can see that this is a quadratic equation whose solution is

             t = [c ±√(c² - 4 (½ a) b)]  / 2

for the results to be real, the square root must be real, so the radicand must be greater than zero

              c² -2a b > 0

              c > √(2ab)
