The frequency of a wave is the number of wavelengths per second. The period of a longitudinal wave is the time taken by the wave to move one wavelength. As for transverse waves, the symbol T is used to represent period and period is measured in seconds

An observer measures the length (L), width (w), and height (h) of a box while stationary relative to the box. The observer then
Elenna [48]

Answer:

b. less than w.

Explanation:

In this question, the application of length contraction is what helps us come to our conclusion. When an object moves very fast (relative to the observer), the length of the object seems to be smaller than it actually is (again, for the observer).

This is supported by the length contraction equation below:

L = L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }

Here, L is the observed length

L_0 is the original length of the object

v is the relative speed between the object and the observer

and c is the speed of light

Using this equation, we can see that as the speed between the object and the observer is increased to be close to that of light, the square root in the equation gives us values less than 1.0

This effectively decreases the length that is observed.

A speeding car traveling at 24.8 m/s passes a police car that is at rest. The police car begins its pursuit at the instant the s
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

the acceleration required is 1.37m/s^2

Explanation:

The car is having a constant velocity movement, so if we calculate the time to reach 897m, we can use it to find the acceleration the policeman need to apply to reach the car.

x=v*t\\t=\frac{x}{v}\\t=\frac{897m}{24.8m/s}\\t=36.17s

the policeman is traveling with a constant acceleration starting from rest so:

x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\a=\frac{2*x}{t^2}\\\\a=1.37 m/s2

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rare of 4.90 meters per second^2. What is the cars speed after it has t
Vesnalui [34]

From the law of Galileo Galilei  :v²=v₀²+2ad we take the speed

v²=0+2*4.90*200=1960=>v=√1960=44.27 m/s

Imagine you leave the dock on a fishing boat that travels east for 30 kilometers when the captain realizes he left the fishing r
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Average speed is 60 km/hr whereas average velocity is 0 km/ hr.

Explanation:

The average speed of the boat is 60 km/ hr while on the other hand, the average velocity of the boat is 0 km/ hr because average speed is the total distance covered by the boat in total time and average velocity is the displacement covered by the boat in total time. The total distance covered by the boat is 60 km and the total time is 60 minutes which is equals to one hour so the answer is 60 km/hr whereas the displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position which is 0 in this case so 0 divided by 60 minutes or one hour is also 0.
