Answer:

Scientific investigation is a quest to find the answer to a question using the scientific method. In turn, the scientific method is a systematic process that involves using measurable observations to formulate, test or modify a hypothesis.

What is the wavelength of a wave that has a speed of 26 m/s and a frequency of 49? ? Show your work

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Wave speed = Wavelength x Frequency

26 m/s = Wavelength x 49

Divide by 49 to find the wavelength:

The wavelength is approximately 0.53

Let me know if this helps!

Explain the relationship between the current output of the power supply and the current through each component in the parallel c

baherus [9]

Explanation:

Current output at the battery will be current of entire circuit, while the current through each bulb in the parallel circuit is the total current circuit.

So, current output through power supply is i and current through each component be $i_1, i_2 , i_3$ considering only three component.

Then in a parallel circuit

$i = i_1+i_2+i_3$

You drop a rock down a well that is 5.4 m deep. How long does it take the rock to hit the bottom of the well?

Natali5045456 [20]

Equation of motion:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

Since initial velocity is zero, the second term goes away:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+0+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}=y_{o}+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}=5.4m$

$5.4m= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{a} = t^{2}$

$a = g = 9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2}}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2} } } = t^{2}$

$1.1 s^{2} = t^{2}$ $\sqrt{1.1 s^{2}} = \sqrt{t^{2}}$

 $t = 1.05s$

On a very muddy football field, a 110kg linebacker tackles an 85kg halfback. Immediately before the collision, the linebacker is

Alchen [17]

Using conservation of energy and momentum you can solve this question. M_l = mass of linebacker
M_ h = mass of halfback
V_l = velocity of linebacker
V_h = velocity of halfback

So for conservation of momentum,
rho = mv

M_l x V_li + M_h x V_hi = M_l x V_lf + M_h x V_hf

For conservation of energy (kinetic)
E_k = 1/2mv^2/ 1/2mV_li^2 + 1/2mV_{hi}^2 = 1/2mV_{lf}^2 + 1/2mV_{hf}^2

Where i and h stand for initial and final values.
We are already told the masses, \[M_l = 110kg\] \[M_h = 85kg\] and the final velocities \[V_{fi} = 8.5ms^{-1}\] and \[V_{ih} = 7.2ms^{-1}

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.760 m, the pendulum bob has a mass of 365 grams, and it is released at an angle of 12.0o to

Allushta [10]

Answer:

0.572 Hz

Explanation:

given,

length of simple pendulum, l = 0.76 m

mass of the bob, m = 365 g = 0.365 Kg

angle made from the vertical, = 12°

frequency, f = ?

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{L}}$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8}{0.76}}$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\times 3.59$

f = 0.572 Hz

The frequency at which pendulum vibrates is equal to 0.572 Hz
