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

In which of the fire plume structure zones do the gases accelerate upward?
I am Lyosha [343]
The zone that gases always accelerate upward is the Luminous flame zone. The fire plume is the column of hot gases, flames and smoke rising above a fire. Gases accelerate upward toward the always luminous flame zone. The luminous flame height is the distance between the base of a flame and the point at which the plume is luminous half the time and transparent half the time.

If a weight hanging on a string of length 5 feet swings through 5^\circ on either side of the vertical, how long is the arc thro
Zielflug [23.3K]
<span>First we can find the circumference of the whole circle with a radius of 5 feet. circumference = 2 pi radius circumference = (2 pi) (5 feet) circumference = (10 pi) feet From one high point to the other high point, the string moves through an angle of 10 degrees. Since a full circle is 360 degrees, this angle is 1/36 of a full circle. Therefore, the arc length is 1/36 of the whole circumference. arc length = (1/36) (circumference) arc length = (1/36) (10 pi) feet arc length = 0.873 feet</span>
