Answer:

1500 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that for a wave,

Speed = frequency x wavelength

here we are given frequency = 500 Hz and wavelength = 3m

simply substitute into above equation

Speed = 500 Hz x 3m

= 1500 m/s

Velocity stands for Displacement w.r.t time

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Velocity=\dfrac{Displacement}{Time}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto v=\dfrac{ds}{dt}$

It has units m/s.

Assuming the same current is running through two separate coils, why is it easier to thrust a magnet into a wire coil with one l

s2008m [1.1K]

The magnetic field strength in a coil is directly proportional to the number of turns, or loops, in the coil.
Therefore, when there are four loops instead of one, the magnetic field strength has increased four times, making it harder to push the magnet in.

6050 J is the kinetic energy at D

<u>Explanation:</u>

In physics, the object's kinetic energy (K.E) defined as the energy it possesses during movement. It can be defined as the required work to accelerate a certain body weight in order to rest at a certain speed. When the body receives this energy as it speeds up (accelerates), it retains this energy unless speed varies. The equation is given as,

$K . E=\frac{1}{2} \times m \times v^{2}$
