Answer:

Wave 1 and Wave 2.      

Explanation:

We know that the general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t)    

or

y=A\ cos(kx-\omega t)    

We know that the speed of a wave is given by :

v=\dfrac{\omega}{k}

Where

\omega = angular speed

k = propagation constant

Wave 1.

y=0.12\ cos(3x-21t)

v_1=\dfrac{21}{3}=7\ m/s

Wave 2.

y=0.15\ cos(6x+42t)

v_2=\dfrac{42}{6}=7\ m/s

Wave 3.

y=0.13\ cos(6x+21t)

v_3=\dfrac{21}{6}=3.5\ m/s

Wave 4.

y=-0.23\ cos(3x-42t)

v_1=\dfrac{42}{3}=14\ m/s

It is clear that wave 1 and 2 have the same speed i.e. 7 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

a car accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 65 km/h (18 m/s) in 12s. Find the distance the car travels during this time?
Vinil7 [7]

The car's speed was zero at the beginning of the 12 seconds,
and 18 m/s at the end of it.  Since the acceleration was 'uniform'
during that time, the car's average speed was (1/2)(0 + 18) = 9 m/s.

12 seconds at an average speed of 9 m/s  ==>  (12 x 9) = 108 meters .

==========================================

That's the way I like to brain it out.  If you prefer to use the formula,
the first problem you run into is:  You need to remember the formula !

The formula is        D = 1/2 a T²

                   Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (time in seconds)²

             Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
                                  =        (18 m/s)            /        (12 sec)
                                  =                      1.5 m/s² .

                  Distance  =  (1/2 x 1.5 m/s²) x (12 sec)²
                                  =       (0.75 m/s²)  x  (144 sec²)  =  108 meters .

A 0.46-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.2 m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels
Kryger [21]

Answer:

      T = 6.0 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of the cord = 0.46 Kg

length of the supports = 7.2 m

time taken to travel = 0.74 s

tension in the chord = ?

using formula for tension calculation

T = \dfrac{v^2.m}{l}

v = \dfrac{l}{s}

v = \dfrac{7.2}{0.74}

v = 9.73 m/s

now, calculation of tension

T = \dfrac{9.73^2\times 0.46}{7.2}

      T = 6.0 N

The tension in the cord is equal to 6.0 N.
