The vertical displacement of an ocean wave is described by the function, y = A sin(ωt - kx). k is called the wave number (k = 2π

/λ) and has a value of k = 18 rad/m. The remaining values are A = 9.5 m and ω = 14.5 rad/s.
a) Using y = A sin(B), input an expression for B where the wave would be traveling in the -x-direction. sig.gif?tid=7M79-31-9F-4E-8624-20536

b) What is the wave's velocity in m/s?

c) What is the wave's amplitude in m?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) y = A sin(B) ; here B is the phase of the wave which moves so that it remains constant

ωt - kx = constant

differentiating on both sides

ωdt - kdx =0

ωdt = kdx

dx / dt = ω / k

wave velocity = ω / k

b ) ω = 14.5 rad / s ,

k = 18 rad / m

wave velocity = ω / k

= 14.5 / 18

= .805 m /s

80.5 cm / s

c )

Amplitude = A

= 9.5 m

A child with a weight of 430 N rides on a Ferris wheel, which has a radius of 17 m, and the linear velocity of the 3.5 m/s at an

Murrr4er [49]

At the lowest point on the Ferris wheel, there are two forces acting on the child: their weight of 430 N, and an upward centripetal/normal force with magnitude n; then the net force on the child is

∑ F = ma

n - 430 N = (430 N)/g • a

where m is the child's mass and a is their centripetal acceleration. The child has a linear speed of 3.5 m/s at any point along the path of the wheel whose radius is 17 m, so the centripetal acceleration is

a = (3.5 m/s)² / (17 m) ≈ 0.72 m/s²

and so

n = 430 N + (430 N)/g (0.72 m/s²) ≈ 460 N

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?

marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.

An electron enters a region between two large parallel plates made of aluminum separated by a distance of 2.0 cm and kept at a p

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) $v=1.77\times 10^6\ m/s$

b) $v=3.872\times 10^6\ m/s$

c) $v=5.5\times 10^6\ m/s$

d) $v=6.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

e) $v=7.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that

d = 2 cm

V = 200 V

$u=4\times 10^5\ m/s$

We know that

F = E q

F = m a

E = V/d

So

m a = q .V/d b

$a=\dfrac{q.V}{m.d}$ ---------1

The mass of electron

$m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

The charge on electron

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Now by putting the all values in equation 1

$a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 200}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 0.02}\ m/s^2$

$a=1.5\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

We know that

$v^2=u^2+2as$

a)

s = 0.1 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 0.1\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{3.16\times 10^{12}}\ m/s$

$v=1.77\times 10^6\ m/s$

b)

s = 0.5 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 0.5\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{1.5\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=3.872\times 10^6\ m/s$

c)

s = 1 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 1\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{3.06\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=5.5\times 10^6\ m/s$

d)

s = 1.5 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 1.5\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{4.5\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=6.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

e)

s = 2 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 2\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{6.06\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=7.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

Balance the following chemical equation:<br> CO2 + VH20 - CH1206+ voz<br> [<br> ~<br> CO₂+

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Start with Carbon and assume we only get 1 sugar molecule from the process.

you have 6 carbons in the sugar on the right, so you need 6 carbons on the left which only come from CO₂

6 CO₂

you have 12 hydrogen atoms in the sugar on the right, so you need 12 hydrogen atoms on the left which only come from H₂O. At 2 hydrogen atoms per water molecule means you need 6 waters.

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆

you are supplied with 12 oxygen from the CO₂ and 6 oxygen from the H₂O, but you only need 6 oxygen for the sugar. That means there are 12 oxygen remaining which will become 6 O₂ molecules

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → 1 C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂
