Answer:

The wave length of the string = 10 cm or 0.1 m

Explanation:

Wave: A wave can be defined as a disturbance, which travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another, without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself.

 The velocity, frequency and wavelength of a wave is related as shown,

v = λf ........................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, λ = wave length, f = frequency.

λ = v/f ..................... Equation 2.

Given: v = 10 cm/s,

T = 2t, where t = 0.5 s, (This is half of one cycle)  

T = 2×0.5 = 1 s,

But T = 1/f = 1/1 = 1 Hz.

Substituting these values into equation 2

λ  = 10(1)

λ  = 10 cm. or 0.1 m

Thus the wave length of the waves = 10 cm or 0.1 m

Light incident on a lake surface is partly reflected and partly refracted.What is the differences between the reflected ray and
iren2701 [21]

Answer: As per the question, a ray of light is incident on a surface and it is partly reflected and refracted. The incident light is an unpolarised light. The reflected light is partially polarised.

If the angle of incidence becomes equal to the Brester angle (polarising angle), then the reflected light is completely plane polarised.

How much work would a child do while puling a 12-kg wagon a distance of 3m with a 22 N force directed 30 degrees with respect to
Alika [10]

Answer:

The work done will be 57.15 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 12 kg

Distance = 3 m

Force = 22 N

Angle = 30°

We need to calculate the work done  

The work done is defined as,

W = Fd\cos\theta

Where, F = force

d = displacement

Put the value into the formula

W=22\times3\times\cos30^{\circ}

W=22\times3\times\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

W = 57.15\ J

Hence, The work done will be 57.15 J
