Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Wavelength = (320 m/s) / (300 / sec)

Wavelength = (1 and 1/15) m/s

Answer:

1.07m

Explanation:

Wavelength of a wave is the distance between two successive crest and trough of a wave. It can be expressed as the ratio of the speed of the wave (v) to its frequency (f)freq 300

Mathematically,

wavelength (¶) = speed of wave (v)/frequency (f)

Given speed = 320m/s and frequency = 300Hertz

Wavelength = 320/300

Wavelength = 1.07m

The wavelength of the wave is therefore 1.07m

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi

mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

If a ball that is 10 meters above the ground is thrown horizontally at 5.51 meters per second. a. how long will it take for the

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a. t = 1.43 s

b. d = 7.88 m

Explanation:

a. The time of flight can be found using the following equation:

$y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{f}$ : is the final height = -10 m

$y_{0}$ : is the initial height = 0

$v_{0_{y}}$ : is the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

By solving the above equation for "t" we have:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2y_{f}}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*10 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s$

Hence, the ball will hit the ground in 1.43 s.

b. The distance in the horizontal direction can be found as follows:

$x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Where:

x₀: is the initial position in the horizontal direction = 0

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0 (it is moving at constant speed)

$x_{f} = 5.51 m/s*1.43 s = 7.88 m$

Therefore, the ball will travel 7.88 m before it hits the ground.

I hope it helps you!

A train starting from rest picks up a speed of 20 m/s in 20 s while travelling on a straight path. It continues to move at the s

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$1300 m$

Explanation:

As the path is straight, so the speed is equivalent to velocity. Now. assuming that the acceleration and deceleration of the train are constant. So, change of velocity with respect to time for acceleration as well as deceleration is constant. Hence, the slope of the speed-time graph is constant for the time of acceleration as well as deceleration. The speed for the time from $20 s$ to $70 s$ is constant, so slope for this interval of time is zero. The speed-time graph is shown in the figure.
