Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by

v=\lambda f

where

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

For the wave in this problem,

- The frequency is given by the number of oscillations per second, so

f=\frac{2 cycles}{1 s}=2 Hz

- The wavelength is

\lambda=5 m

So, the wave speed is

v=(5 m)(2 Hz)=10 m/s

A passenger at an airport pulls a rolling suitcase by its handle. If the force used is 10 N and the handle makes an angle of 25
Deffense [45]

Answer:

W= 1812.6 J

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the scalar product of force F by the distance (d) the body travels due to this force.  

W= F*d* cosα Formula ( 1)

Where:

F is the force in Newtons (N)

d is the displacemente in meters (m)

α : Angle formed between force and displacement

Data

F = 10 N

d = 200 m

α = 25°

Work done by the pulling force while the passenger walks 200 m

We replace data in the formula (1)

W= F*d* cosα

W= (10 N)*(200 m)* cos25°

W= 1812.6 (N*m)

W= 1812.6 J

Float. This is because water has a density of 1 g/ml, so anything less than this will float.

When are zeros significant when found to the trailing (to the right) of the decimal point?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Usually, zeroes are found to the right of a decimal point in significant numbers if you have something like 7\frac{1}{100000000000000000000000000} (exaggerated example of course), which is when you have a number that is very very close to the integer before it, but isn't that integer.
