The rocks formed from the seafloor sediments deposited in the Amadeus basin were softer than the Arkose sandstone because the Amadeus basin were made up of marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks which are softer compared to quarts which make up mostly the Arkose sandstone.
Answer:
a. 32.67 rad/s² b. 29.4 m/s²
Explanation:
a. The initial angular acceleration of the rod
Since torque τ = Iα = WL (since the weight of the rod W is the only force acting on the rod , so it gives it a torque, τ at distance L from the pivot )where I = rotational inertia of uniform rod about pivot = mL²/3 (moment of inertia about an axis through one end of the rod), α = initial angular acceleration, W = weight of rod = mg where m = mass of rod = 1.8 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and L = length of rod = 90 cm = 0.9 m.
So, Iα = WL
mL²α/3 = mgL
dividing through by mL, we have
Lα/3 = g
multiplying both sides by 3, we have
Lα = 3g
dividing both sides by L, we have
α = 3g/L
Substituting the values of the variables, we have
α = 3g/L
= 3 × 9.8 m/s²/0.9 m
= 29.4/0.9 rad/s²
= 32.67 rad/s²
b. The initial linear acceleration of the right end of the rod?
The linear acceleration at the initial point is tangential, so a = Lα = 0.9 m × 32.67 rad/s² = 29.4 m/s²
both it velocity and acceleration is zero.
Answer:
Cannot be determined from the given information
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Velocity = 24 m/s
Period = 3 seconds
To find the amplitude of the wave;
Mathematically, the amplitude of a wave is given by the formula;
x = Asin(ωt + ϕ)
Where;
x is displacement of the wave measured in meters.
A is the amplitude.
ω is the angular frequency measured in rad/s.
t is the time period measured in seconds.
ϕ is the phase angle.
Hence, the information provided in this exercise isn't sufficient to find the amplitude of the waveform.
However, the given parameters can be used to calculate the frequency and wavelength of the wave.
Answer:
c. 2 m/s
Explanation:
The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by:

where
v is the speed of the wave
f is its frequency
is the wavelength
For the transverse wave in this problem, we have:
is the frequency
is the wavelength
Substituting these numbers into the equation, we find the speed of the wave:
