What occurs when a swimmer pushes through water to swim

Physics

When we swim we apply force and push the water backward with the help of our hands. In response, The water pushes us forward with an equal force. Thus, in order to move forward and swim, the swimmer lushes the water backward. Newton's 3rd law of motion

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elect
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Speed of the alpha particle is v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec      

Explanation:

We have given charge on alpha particle q=3.2\times 10^{-19}C

Mass of the alpha particle m=6.68\times 10^{-27}kg

Potential difference V=-3.45\times 10^{-3}volt

We have to find the speed of the alpha particle

From energy conservation we know that

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=qV

\frac{1}{2}\times 6.68\times 10^{-27}\times v^2=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3.45\times 10^{-3}

v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec

A string that is 3.6 m long is tied between two posts and plucked. The string produces a wave that has a frequency of 320 Hz and
marin [14]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to wavelength depending on the frequency and speed. Mathematically, the wavelength can be expressed as

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where,

v = Velocity

f = Frequency,

Our values are given as

L = 3.6m

v= 192m/s

f= 320Hz

Replacing we have that

\lambda = \frac{192}{320}

\lambda = 0.6m

The total number of 'wavelengths' that will be in the string will be subject to the total length over the size of each of these undulations, that is,

N = \frac{L}{\lambda}

N = \frac{3.6}{0.6}

N = 6

Therefore the number of wavelengths of the wave fit on the string is 6.
