The wavelength of the wave is 0.40 m.

Frequency f of a wave is defined as the number of waves traveling through a point in one second. Wavelength λ is the distance traveled by the wave in one complete time period. The speed of the wave v is related to frequency and wavelength by the expression,

$v=f \lambda$

Therefore,

$\lambda =\frac{v}{f}$

Substitute 200 m/s for v and 500 Hz for f.

$\lambda =\frac{v}{f}\\ =\frac{200 m/s}{500 Hz} \\ =0.40m$

Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 0.40 m

Four aqueous solutions and their concentrations are shown in the above illustration. which of the solutions is most likely to be

Elza [17]

The solution that would most likely be a strongest conductor of electricity is the solution that is most saturated or concentrated. This is because the atoms that are found within the aqueous solutions have become positively charged resulting to the attraction of negatively charged ions that are found in electricity. On the other hand, the least conductive from the aqueous solutions would be the most unsaturated one because of less conductive ions present.

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts given in the balance of forces for the tangential force and the centripetal force. An easy way to detail this problem is through a free body diagram that describes the behavior of the body and the forces to which it is subject.

PART A) Normal Force.

$F_n = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$N+mgcos\theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Here,

Normal reaction of the ring is N and velocity of the ring is v

$N+mgcos\theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$N+Wcos\theta = \frac{W}{g} (\frac{v^2}{r})$

$N+2cos30\° = \frac{2}{32.2}*\frac{10^2}{2}$

$N = 1.374lb$

PART B) Acceleration

$F_t = ma_t$

$-mgsin\theta = ma_t$

$-W sin\theta = \frac{W}{g} a_t$

$-2Sin30\° = (\frac{2}{32.2})a_t$

$a_T = -16.10ft/s^2$

Negative symbol indicates deceleration.

NOTE: For the problem, the graph in which the turning radius and the angle of suspension was specified was not supplied. A graphic that matches the description given by the problem is attached.
