A wave with a period of three seconds travels at a speed of 12 m/s what is the wavelength of the wave

Physics
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<em>λ </em>= 0.28m

Explanation:

Equation used is <em>v = λf</em>, where <em>v</em> is velocity, <em>λ</em> is wavelength, and <em>f</em> is frequency

We need to find wavelength so rearrange the equation in term of wavelength.

<em>v = λf</em>

<em>λ = f/v</em>

We know that period is the inverse of frequency (f = 1/T), so lets substitute that into our equation

<em>λ = f/v</em>

<em>λ = (1/T)/v</em>

Plug in your the given values given in the question.

We're given v=12m/s and T=3sec

<em>λ = (1/T)/v</em>

<em>λ</em> = (1/3)/12

<em>λ</em> = 1/36 = 0.2777777 = 0.28m

A cylindrical pulley with a mass of 4.4 kg, radius of 0.816 m and moment of inertia 1 2 M r2 is used to lower a bucket with a ma
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

5.85 m/s²

Explanation:

Mass of pulley (M) = 6.8 kg, mass of bucket (m) = 1.5 kg, radius of pulley (r) = 0.816 m, acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s².

Let the tension exerted on the pulley be T and the angular acceleration be α,

The angular acceleration (α) = a / r; where a is the linear acceleration.

mg - T = ma

T = m(g - a)

Also, for the disk:

Tr = Iα

I = moment of inertia = 0.5Mr²

m(g - a)r = 0.5Mr²(a/r)

m(g - a)r = 0.5Mra

2m(g - a) = Ma

2mg - 2ma = Ma

Ma + 2ma = 2mg

a(M + 2m) = 2mg

a = 2mg / (M + 2m)

Substituting:

a = 2(3.1 kg)(10 m/s²) / (4.4 + 2(3.1))

a = 5.85 m/s²

A large vessel of the diameter of 14 mm divides into two identical smaller vessels but the velocity of blood in
ycow [4]

Answer:

the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm

Explanation:

The computation of the diameter of the smaller vessels is given below;

Given that

The larger vessel of the diameter is 14mm

So,

d1 = 7 mm

let us assume the diameter of the smaller artery is d2

Now we used the equation of continuity i.e.

v × pi × d1^2 = 2 × v × pi × d2^2

14^2 = 2 × d2^2

d2 = 9.90 mm

Hence, the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm
