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

Anika [276]

Answer:

156.8 Watts

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Height (h) = 8 m

Time (t) = 5 s

Power (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the energy used by the motor to raise the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Height (h) = 8 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

E = mgh

E = 10 × 9. 8 × 8

E = 784 J

Finally, we shall determine the power output of the motor. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 5 s

Energy (E) = 784 J

Power (P) =?

P = E/t

P = 784 / 5

P = 156.8 Watts

Therefore, the power output of the motor is 156.8 Watts

A 438kg car is accelerating east at 2.55m/s^2. What is the total force acting east on the car
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<h2>1116.9 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 438 × 2.55

We have the final answer as

<h3>1116.9 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Que hace falta para descubrir hasta que punto todas y todos somos diferentes y ver que eso, más bien es valioso y positivo
lara [203]

Answer:

Para descubrir que las diferencias entre las personas son valiosas y positivas para la creación de sociedades más diversas y enriquecidas culturalmente, es necesario valorar las condiciones personales de cada persona de modo positivo, abandonando posturas discriminatorias como el racismo o la xenofobia, para así aceptar la diversidad social. Además, debe fomentarse el respeto por la opinión y la visión del otro, para que las personas no tomen al que piensa diferente como un adversario al que hay que confrontar. Solo así podrá lograrse una sociedad más diversa y respetuosa de las diferencias, sean culturales, étnicas o intelectuales.
