A wave has a wavelength of 3.3m and a speed of 5.6m/s. What is the frequency of this wave?

The frequency of a certain wave is the quotient obtained by dividing the speed of the wave by the wavelength. That is 

                                         f = s/λ

Substituting the known values,

                                         f = (5.6 m/s) / 3.3 m

                                            = 1.7/s

                                            = 1.7 Hz

Hope this helped!

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the counter for a refill. The height of the counter is 1.42 m. The mug
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a) V_{x}=3.72m/s, b) ∠=-54.83°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must start with a drawing of the situation, this will help us visualize the problem better. (See picture attached).

a)

Now, the idea is that the beer mug has a horizontal speed and no vertical speed at initial conditions. So knowing this, we can start finding the initial velocity of the mug.

In order to do so, we need to find the time it takes for the mug to reach the ground. We can find it by using the following equation:

y=y_{0}+V_{y0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}

We can see from the drawing that y and the initial velocity in y are zero, so we can simplify our formula:

0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}

so we can solve for t, so we get:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)y_{0}}{a}}

so now we can substitute the known values, so we get:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)(1.42)}{-9.8}}

which yields:

t=0.538s

So we can use this value to find the velocity in x:

V_{x}=\frac{x}{t}

When substituting we get:

V_{x}=\frac{2m}{0.538s}

which yields:

V_{x}=3.72m/s

b)

In order to solve part b, we need to find the y-component of the velocity, for which we can use the following formula:

\Delta y=\frac{V_{f}^{2}-V_{0}^{2}}{2a}

We know that V_{0} is zero, so we can simplify the expression:

\Delta y=\frac{V_{yf}^{2}}{2a}

So we can solve the equation for V_{yf}^{2} so we get:

V_{yf}=\sqrt{2\Delta y a}

and when substituting the known values we get:

V_{yf}=\sqrt{2(-1.42m)(-9.8m/s^{2})}

which yields:

V_{yf}=-5.28m/s

Once we got the final velocity in y, we can use it together with the velocity in x to find the angle.

So we can use the following formula:

tan \theta =\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}}

when solving for theta we get:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}})

We can substitute so we get:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.28m/s}{3.72m/s})

which yields:

\theta = -54.83^{o}

What is the instantaneous velocity of the hummingbird at t=1s?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The distance - time graph of the humming bird is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Instantaneous velocity = 0.5 m/s

Explanation:

From the attached graph, at time t = 1 s, the corresponding distance is 0.5 m.

Instantaneous velocity is the velocity at that point.

Thus;

Instantaneous velocity = 0.5/1

Instantaneous velocity = 0.5 m/s

How much acceleration can most humans stand before they pass out?
kumpel [21]
Normal humans can withstand no more than 9 g's, and even that for only a few seconds. When undergoing an acceleration of 9 g's, your body feels nine times heavier than usual, blood rushes to the feet, and the heart can't pump hard enough to bring this heavier blood to the brain.

Why are the plates in a capacitor parallel to each other?
TiliK225 [7]
To have a uniform field. The field is the voltage between the plates divided by the distance between the plates. If the distance varies so would the field between them.
