A fisherman sees his boat moving up and down, owing to waves on the water. It takes 2.5 s for the boat to travel from its highes

t to lowest point, a distance of 0.62 m. The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced 6 m apart. How fast are the waves traveling?

Answer:

The waves are traveling in a speed of

v=1.20 m/s

Explanation:

The fisherman see a wave at 6m apart so that's the wavelength

L=6m

Now the period is the time between two successive waves so

t=2*2.5s=5s

The velocity of the waves is describe by:

v=f*L

f=\frac{1}{t}=\frac{1}{5s}=20s^{-1}

v=0.20s^{-1}*6m

v=1.20 \frac{m}{s}

WheN a car is driven some distance the air pressure in the tyre increases,why?
KatRina [158]
Over the course of a long drive, as a result of alternating between braking and acceleration and of course steering, tires get heated up. When this happens, the air within the tires gets heated up, causing the air within the tire to expand. This expanding air exerts force on the tire from inside thus increasing tire pressure.

OLEGan [10]

A square loop whose sides are long is made of copper wire of radius , given the resistivity of copper is . if the magnetic field perpendicular to the loop changes at a constant rate of I = 14.029 mA.

The basic characteristic of a substance that measures how effectively it resists an electric current is called electrical resistance. A material with low resistance is a material that easily conducts electric current. A Greek letter is often used to indicate resistivity. Electrical resistance is a basic property of a material that measures how strongly it resists an electric current. The SI unit for electrical resistance is the ohmmeter.

We use magnetic field as a tool to describe how the magnetic field is distributed in the space around and inside something of a magnetic nature. A material with low resistance is a material that easily conducts electric current. A Greek letter is often used to indicate resistivity. An ohmmeter is a unit of electrical resistance in the SI system.
