1) c. 2 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed of a wave is

v=\lambda f

where

v is the speed

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

For the wave in this problem,

f = 4 Hz

\lambda=0.5 m

So, the speed is

v=(0.5 m)(4 Hz)=2 m/s

2)  a. 2.8 m/s

The speed of the wave on a string is given

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

where

T is the tension in the string

\mu is the linear mass density

In this problem, we have:

T=2 \cdot 4 N=8 N (final tension in the rope, which is twice the initial tension)

\mu = 1 kg/m --> mass density of the rope

Substituting into the formula, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{8 N}{1 kg/m}}=2.8 m/s

Two skaters stand facing each other. One skater's mass is 60 kg, and the other's
jeyben [28]

Answer:

v' = 2.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one skater, m = 60 kg

Mass of the other's skater, m' = 60 kg

The two skaters push off each other. After the push, the smaller  skater has a velocity of 3.0 m/s.

When there is no external force acting on a system, the momentum remains conserved. It means initial momentum is equal to the final momentum. Let v' is the velocity of the larger skater.

mv = m'v'

v'=\dfrac{mv}{m'}\\\\v'=\dfrac{60\times 3}{75}\\\\v'=2.4\ m/s

So, the velocity of the larger skater is 2.4 m/s.

Lauren wants to know which location in her apartment is best for growing African violets. She has three African violets. She put
Harrizon [31]
First, before determining which variable is which, we go over the definition of each.
The independent variable is the one which is intentionally changed in order to investigate its effect on the dependent variable.
The dependent variable is monitored and changes occur in it due to the changing conditions of the independent variable.

In this case, the location of the African violets is the independent variable as it is intentionally changed, while the rate of growth of the African violets is the dependent variable as it is being measured.

A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail , he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he
Mrac [35]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

Our cyclist's change in speed = (3 m/s) - (8 m/s) = -5 m/s

Acceleration = (-5 m/s) / (60 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = -1/12 m/s²</em>

serg [7]

Answer:

f = 735 Hz

Explanation:

given,

Person distance from speakers

r₁ = 4.1 m      r₂ = 4.8 m

Path difference

d = r₂ - r₁ = 4.8 - 4.1 = 0.7 m

For destructive interference

d = \dfrac{n\lambda}{2}

where, n = 1, 3,5..

we know, λ = v/f

d = \dfrac{n v}{2f}

v is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

f is the frequency

f = \dfrac{n v}{2d}

for n = 1

f = \dfrac{343}{2\times 0.7}

     f = 245 Hz

for n = 3

f = \dfrac{3\times 343}{2\times 0.7}

     f = 735 Hz

Hence,the second lowest frequency of the destructive interference is 735 Hz.
