If you slosh the water back and forth in a bathtub at the correct frequency, the water rises first at one end and then at the ot

her. Suppose you can make a standing wave in a 157 cm long tub with a frequency of 0.3165 Hz. What is the velocity of the water wave? Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

Velocity(v) = frequency(f) × wavelength

f = 0.3165

Wavelength = 2×length(L)

L = 157cm

Convert the length in centimetres to metre = 1.57m

v = 2×1.57 × 0.3165

v = 0.99m/s

Approx. 1m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave is the product of its frequency and it's wavelength. The frequency is already known. The wavelength is the distance between two successive wave crests which is formed by sloshing water back and forth in the bath tub. Sloshing water to one end of the tub will produce a wave crest first at that end then the other completing a cycle. The wavelength will be twice the length of the bath tub as it is the distance that both crests are formed.

Wave crest is the highest point of a wave, and in this case is where the water rises to a high point in the bath tub

Calculate the displacement of a car waxing point of 11 m to the final positions of 4 meters
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

-7 m

Explanation:

Displacement is a vector connecting the initial position of motion of an object to its final position.

For the car in this problem, we have:

- Initial position: + 11 m

- Final position: + 4 m

Therefore, the vector displacement will be:

d = +4 - (+11) = -7 m

Which means:

- Magnitude of 7 m

- Negative direction
