Every planet, star, and moon has gravity. When astronauts walked on the surface of the moon, it exerted a gravitation pull on them. However, the gravity on the surface of the moon is comparatively weaker than Earth's because it is less massive.

Perform the following mathematical operation and report answer to the correct number of significant figures 143.6 divided by 21.

Svetllana [295]

The answer to the correct number of significant figures is 6.774.

<h3>What is quotient?</h3>

When a number(big) divided smaller number, the answer obtained greater than zero is called a quotient.

Divide 143.6 ÷ 21.2

143.6/21.2 = 1436/212

=6.77358

The quotient is rounded to three significant figures after decimal

143.6 ÷ 21.2 = 6.774

Thus, the answer to the correct number of significant figures is 6.774

A spherical wave with a wavelength of 2.0 mm is emitted from the origin. At one instant of time, the phase at rrr = 4.0 mm is πr

max2010maxim [7]

Complete Question

A spherical wave with a wavelength of 2.0 mm is emitted from the origin. At one instant of time, the phase at r_1 = 4.0 mm is π rad. At that instant, what is the phase at r_2 = 3.5 mm ? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

The phase at the second point is $\phi _2 = 1.57 \ rad$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength of the spherical wave is $\lambda = 2.0 \ mm = \frac{2}{1000} = 0.002 \ m$

The first radius is $r_1 = 4.0 \ mm = \frac{4}{1000} = 0.004 \ m$

The phase at that instant is $\phi _1 = \pi \ rad$

The second radius is $r_2 = 3.5 \ mm = \frac{3.5}{1000} = 0.0035 \ m$

Generally the phase difference is mathematically represented as

$\Delta \phi = \phi _2 - \phi _1$

this can also be expressed as

$\Delta \phi = \frac{2 \pi }{\lambda } (r_2 - r_1 )$

So we have that

$\phi _2 - \phi _1 = \frac{2 \pi }{\lambda } (r_2 - r_1 )$

substituting values

$\phi _2 - \pi = \frac{2 \pi }{0.002 } ( 0.0035 - 0.004 )$

$\phi _2 = \frac{2 \pi }{0.002 } ( 0.0035 - 0.004 ) + 3.142$

$\phi _2 = 1.57 \ rad$

Suppose a plot of inverse wavelength vs frequency has slope equal to 0.119, what is the speed of sound traveling in the tube to

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

8.40 m/s

Explanation:

Slope of the plot is 0.119

Slope of a plot is given by the change in y direction divided by the change in x direction

Here, the y axis represents inverse wavelength and the x axis represents frequency.

f = Frequency (Hz, assumed)

v = Phase velocity (m/s, assumed)

λ = Wavelength (m, assumed)

So, slope

$m=\frac{\frac{1}{\lambda}}{f}$

Now,

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=\frac{f}{v}$

$\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{\frac{f}{v}}{f}\\\Rightarrow 0.119=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1}{0.119}\\\Rightarrow v=8.40\ m/s$

The speed of sound travelling in the tube is 8.40 m/s

What is the kinetic energy of a toy truck with a mass of 0.75 kg and a velocity of 4 m/s? (Formula: )

Dvinal [7]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object or particle when it is in motion.

Mathematically, Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}mass \times (velocity)^{2}$

It is given that toy truck has mass = 0.75 kg, and velocity = 4 m/s.

Calculate the kinetic energy as follows.

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}mass \times (velocity)^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}0.75 kg \times (4 m/s)^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}0.75 kg \times 16 m^{2}/s^{2}$

= $0.75 kg \times 8 m^{2}/s^{2}$

= $6 kg m^{2}/s^{2}$

or, Kinetic energy = 6 joules

Thus, we can conclude that kinetic energy of toy truck is 6 J.
