Answer: 15.6 metres

Explanation:

Given that:

length of wave (λ)= ?

Frequency of wave F = 28 Hertz

Speed of wave (V) = 437 m/s

The wavelength is the distance covered by the wave in one complete cycle. It is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ.

So, apply V = F λ

Make λ the subject formula

λ = V / F

λ = 437 m/s / 28 Hertz

λ = 15.6 m

Thus, the length of the wave is 15.6 metres

Initial velocity u = 40 
Angle at launch = 55 degrees
 At maximum height v = 0, velocity equation v^2 = u^2 - 2gh,
 0 = (40 x sin55)^2 - 2 x 9.81 x h => (40 x 0.819)^2 = 19.62h => h = 32.76^2 /
19.62
 Maximum height = 54.7 m 
 We have v = u - gt => 0 = (40 x sin55) - 9.81 x t => t = 32.76 / 9.81 => t =
3.34 s
 Time taken to hit the ground is 2t = 2 x 3.34 = 6.68 s 
Distance from castle to trebuchet = utcos55 = 40 x 6.68 x 0.573 = 153.1 m

A 25 Kg rock is sitting on a cliff that is 50 meters above the ground. If it fell off of the cliff, and all energy was conserved
svetlana [45]

Answer:

v = 31.32 [m/s]  

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation, which tells us that potential energy is converted into kinetic energy or vice versa. The potential energy can be calculated by the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy [J]

m = mass = 25 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 50 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=25*9.81*50\\E_{pot}= 12262.5[J]

When the rock falls the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

E_{pot}=E_{k}\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

where:

Ek = kinetic energy [J]

v = velocity [m/s]

Now clearing v:

v^{2} =\frac{E_{k}*2}{m}\\v=\sqrt{(2*12262)/25}\\v = 31.32 [m/s]

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: I observed that the electric field strength is the same at all points between the plates. The value of the field is 70 volts per meter. This is exactly 100 times the applied voltage. The electric field lines point from the positive plate to the negative plate, as the downward arrow on the detector shows.
