To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to frequency as a function of speed and wavelength as well as the kinematic equations of simple harmonic motion

From the definition we know that the frequency can be expressed as

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

Where,

v = Velocity \rightarrow 20m/s

\lambda = Wavelength \rightarrow 35*10^{-2}m

Therefore the frequency would be given as

f = \frac{20}{35*10^{-2}}

f = 57.14Hz

The frequency is directly proportional to the angular velocity therefore

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi *57.14

\omega = 359.03rad/s

Now the maximum speed from the simple harmonic movement is given by

V_{max} = A\omega

Where

A = Amplitude

Then replacing,

V_{max} = (1*10^{-2})(359.03)

V_{max} = 3.59m/s

Therefore the maximum speed of a point on the string is 3.59m/s

Decreases, stays the same, increases. The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume). The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules. The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.

Which is not a source of electrical energy in the United States
xenn [34]

Every practical source of energy that you can imagine, as well as a few impractical ones, are used somewhere in the USA.

From whale oil in Alaska, to nuclear energy, to coal, petroleum, natural gas, solar energy, wind energy, and biomass.

Oh ! Geothermal energy and tidal energy aren't too popular, but I'll bet if you looked, you'd find these used too, SOMEwhere in the 50 states.

A reconnaissance plane flies 560 km away from its base at 602 m/s, then flies back to its base at 903 m/s.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Approximately 722\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}.

Explanation:

The average speed of a vehicle is calculated as:

\displaystyle \text{average speed} = \frac{\text{total distance}}{\text{total time}}.

In this question, the total distance is 2 \times 560\; \rm km = 1120\; \rm km.

The unit of the speeds in this question is meters per second, while the unit of distance is kilometers. Convert the unit of distance to meters:

560 \; \rm km = 560 \times 10^{3} \; \rm m = 5.6 \times 10^{5}\; \rm m.

1120 \; \rm km = 1120 \times 10^{3} \; \rm m = 1.12 \times 10^{6}\; \rm m.

Time required for the first part of this trip:

\displaystyle \frac{5.60 \times 10^{5}\; \rm m}{602\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}} \approx 930\; \rm s.

Time required for the second part of this trip:

\displaystyle \frac{5.60 \times 10^{5}\; \rm m}{903\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}} \approx 620\; \rm s.

The time required for the entire trip would be approximately 930 + 620 = 1550\; \rm s.

Calculate the average speed of this plane:

\begin{aligned} \text{average speed} &= \frac{\text{total distance}}{\text{total time}} \\ &\approx \frac{1.12\times 10^{6}\; \rm m}{1550\; \rm s} \approx 722\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}.
