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

adell [148]

Answer:

A boxed 14.0 kg computer monitor is dragged by friction 5.50 m up along the moving surface of a conveyor belt inclined at an angle of 36.9 ∘ above the horizontal. The monitor's speed is a constant 2.30 cm/s.

how much work is done on the monitor by (a) friction, (b) gravity

work(friction) = 453.5J

work(gravity) = -453.5J

Explanation:

Given that,

mass = 14kg

displacement length = 5.50m

displacement angle = 36.9°

velocity = 2.30cm/s

F = ma

work(friction) = mgsinθ .displacement

                      = (14) (9.81) (5.5sin36.9°)

                       = 453.5J

work(gravity)

= the influence of gravity oppose the motion of the box and can be pushing down, on the box from and angle of (36.9° + 90°)

= 126.9°

work(gravity) = (14) (9.81) (5.5cos126.9°)

                      = -453.5J

Tamsen is interested in history, and read that because of its regular period, the pendulum constituted the basis of the most acc
geniusboy [140]

We will apply the concept of period in a pendulum, defined as the product between 2\pi by the square root of the length over gravity, this is mathematically

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Here,

T = Period

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

For the period to be 1 second, then we must look for the necessary length for such a requirement so

1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}

(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2 = \frac{L}{9.8}

L = 9.8(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2

L = 0.2482m

The meter's length would be slight less than one-fourth of its current length. Also, the number of significant digits depends only on how precisely we know g, because the time has been defined to be exactly 1s.

Therefore the correct answer is C.
