Answer:
900 cm/s or 9 m/s.
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include the following:
Length (L) = 30 cm
frequency (f) = 60 Hz
Velocity (v) =.?
Next, we shall determine the wavelength (λ).
This is illustrated below:
Since the wave have 4 node, the wavelength of the wave will be:
λ = 2L/4
Length (L) = 30 cm
wavelength (λ) =.?
λ = 2L/4
λ = 2×30/4
λ = 60/4
λ = 15 cm
Therefore, the wavelength (λ) is 15 cm
Now, we can obtain the speed of the wave as follow:
wavelength (λ) = 15 cm
frequency (f) = 60 Hz
Velocity (v) =.?
v = λf
v = 15 × 60
v = 900 cm/s
Thus, converting 900 cm/s to m/s
We have:
100 cm/s = 1 m/s
900 cm/s = 900/100 = 9 m/s
Therefore, the speed of the wave is 900 cm/s or 9 m/s.
Answer:
Average speed = distance/time
From 1 to 9 seconds:
Distance covered = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8 km
Time = 9 - 1 = 8 sec
Average speed = 0.8 km / 8 sec
Average speed = 0.1 km/s .
The average speed for the whole test is 1.6 km / 20 sec = 0.08 km/sec. A graph of speed vs time would average out as a horizontal line at 0.08 km/sec from 1 sec to 21 sec. The area under it would be (0.08 km/s) x (20 sec) = 1.6 km.
Surprise surprise ! The area under a speed/time graph is the distance covered during that time !
In closing, I want to express my gratitude for the gracious bounty of 3 points with which I have been showered. Moreover, the green breadcrust and tepid cloudy water have also been refreshing.
Explanation:
By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,
Gravitational forces are forces of attraction. It's like the Earth pulling on you and keeping you on the ground.
Regardless of what direction an object is moving, the acceleration
due to gravity is always directed toward the center of the Earth.
That's the direction commonly known as "down".
