<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Frequency

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Waves are disturbances that travel through a material medium. There are several characteristics of waves, which includes; wavelength, frequency, period and amplitude. </u></em>
  • Amplitude is the maximum displacement of wave particles, or simply the height of the wave, measured in meters.
  • Wavelength is the distance between adjacent crests or troughs in a transverse wave or between two successive rarefaction or compressions in a longitudinal wave, measured in meters.
  • Period is the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds.
  • <em><u>Frequency is the number of complete waves or cycles that pass a point in one second, measured is inverse seconds, or Hertz (Hz).</u></em>

Throw two balls from the same height at the same time at an initial speed of 20 m/s. One is thrown vertically down, while the ot
labwork [276]

The time difference between their landing is 2.04 seconds.

<h3>Time of difference of the two balls</h3>

The ball thrown vertical upwards will take double of the time taken by the ball thrown vertically downwards.

Time difference, = 2t - t = t

t = √(2h/g)

where;

  • h is the height of fall
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

¹/₂mv² = mgh

h = v²/2g

where;

  • v is speed of the ball

h = (20²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 20.41 m

<h3>Time of motion</h3>

t = √(2 x 20.41 / 9.8)

t = 2.04 s

Thus, the time difference between their landing is 2.04 seconds.

A person has long hair hanging straight down from their head. A second person rubs a balloon with felt so that the balloon is ne
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The best explanation is that the first person is grounded to the earth, and his/her body either draws up negative charges from the earth, or tend to conducts negative charges to the earth, depending on the charge on the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

The earth is an infinite store for charges. In the first case where the second person brings a negatively charged balloon towards the first person, the negative charges on the balloon induces the first person's body to tend to attract the negative charges on the balloon through the first person's body to the positive charges within the earth. In the second case when again a positively charged balloon is brought near the first person's hair, the positive charges on the balloon induce the first person's body into drawing up negative charges from within the earth. This charges, and their opposite induced charges, create an attractive force between the hair strands and the balloons.

A rock has a mass of 25kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s and the height of the rock is 42 m. Find the potential energ
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Explanation:

 Mass of rock = 25 kg

 Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

 Height = 42 m

 Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

 PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN
