Answer:

time taken by the wave to reach the person is 0.2 s

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the wave is given as

v = \lambda f

here we know that the wavelength of the wave is

\lambda = 2.5 m

f = 10 Hz

now speed of the wave is given as

v = 10(2.5)

v = 25 m/s

Now time taken by the wave to reach 5 m distance is

t = \frac{L}{v}

t = \frac{5}{25}

t = 0.2 s

Tonya is riding a motorcycle that goes from 30 m/s to 75 m/s in 5s. She is heading south to Florida. What is her acceleration?
sasho [114]
Since acceleration = Vf- Vi/t
Vf = 75m/s
Vi = 30m/s

Then acceleration = 75-30/5
= 9m/s.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

-2.60097\times 10^{-6}\ C

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

r = Distance between charges = 2 cm

The electric force is given by

F=\dfrac{k4\times 10^{-6}q_A}{r^2}

Also

F=\dfrac{k4\times 10^{-6}q_B}{r^2}

The sum of the force is given by

\sum F=\dfrac{k4\times 10^{-6}q_A}{r^2}cos 30+\dfrac{k4\times 10^{-6}q_B}{r^2}cos 30\\\Rightarrow \sum F=2\dfrac{k4\times 10^{-6}q_A}{r^2}cos 30\\\Rightarrow q_a=\dfrac{\sum Fr^2}{2\times k4\times 10^{-6}cos30}\\\Rightarrow q_a=\dfrac{405\times 0.02^2}{2\times 8.99\times 10^9\times 4\times 10^{-6}cos30}\\\Rightarrow q_a=2.60097\times 10^{-6}\ C

Thus q_a=q_b=-2.60097\times 10^{-6}\ C.

The negative sign is because the force points downward which is taken as negative

The chart shows the speed at which light travels through different media.
sammy [17]

Answer:

Air.

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, let us consider the relationship between velocity and the wavelength of a wave. This is illustrated below:

Velocity, wavelength and frequency are related by the following equation:

Velocity = wavelength × frequency

v = λf

From the equation above, we can see clearly that the velocity is directly proportional to the wavelength.

This means that an increase in the wavelength will lead to an increase in the velocity and also, a decrease in the wavelength will lead to a decrease in the velocity.

Now, considering the table given in the question above, we can see that the wave has a higher speed in air. This simply means that the wave will also have a higher wavelength in air.

Thus, the correct answer to the question is: air
