Answer:

a) 31.4 m/s

b) 50.2 m

Explanation:

a) When an object is free falling, its speed is determined by the gravity force giving it acceleration. Equation for the velocity of free fall started from the rest is:

v = g • t

g - is gravitational acceleration which is 9.81 m/s^2, sometimes rounded to 10

t - is the time of free fall

So:

v = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2

v = 31.4 m/s ( if g is rounded to 10, then the velocity is 10 • 3.2 = 32 m/s)

b) To determine the distance crossed in free fall we use the equation:

s = v0 + gt^2/2

v0 - is the starting velocity (since object started fall from rest, its v0 is 0)

s = gt^2/2

s = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2^2 / 2

s = 50.2 m (if we round g to 10 then the distance is 10 • 3.2^2/2 = 51.2 meters)

Find the frequency of a wave produced by a generator that emits 100 pulses in 2.0 s.
kobusy [5.1K]

The frequency of the wave is 50 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of the wave is defined as the number of cycles per second of the wave:

f=\frac{N}{t}

where

N is the number of cycles completed in a time t.

Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz).

In this problems, the wave has

N = 100 pulses

in

t = 2.0 s

Therefore, its frequency is

f=\frac{100}{2.0}=50 Hz
