Answer:

(a) $\lambda=0.032\ m$

(b) v = 1064 m/s

Explanation:

(a) Frequency of electromagnetic wave, $f=9.35\ GHz=9.35\times 10^9\ Hz$

Let $\lambda$ is the wavelength of electromagnetic wave. It can be calculated as :

$c=f\lambda$

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{9.35\times 10^9\ Hz}$

$\lambda=0.032\ m$

(b) Frequency of medium, f = 532 Hz

Wavelength, $\lambda=2\ m$

Let v is the speed of sound wave in an unknown fluid. Using the relation as :

$v=f\lambda$

$v=532\times 2$

v = 1064 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

An aluminum wire is 5.87 m long and has a diameter of 6.07 mm.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to calculate the cross sectional area of the cable:

Diameter (D)=6.07 mm

Since: 1000mm = 1m

6.07mm/ 1000mm/m = 0.00607 meters

Area of a circle : π (d/2)^2

A = π (0.00607/2)^2= 0.000028937 m2

Resistance formula:

Resistance (R) = P(resistivity) L (length)÷A (cross sectional area )

Replacing with the values given:

R = (2.82x10-8 x 5.87) / 0.000028937

R = 5.72 x 10-3Ω

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis depends on the time according to the equation x = ct2 - bt3, where x is in me

Sav [38]

Answer:

(a): $\rm meter/ second^2.$

(b): $\rm meter/ second^3.$

(c): $\rm 2ct-3bt^2.$

(d): $\rm 2c-6bt.$

(e): $\rm t=\dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

Explanation:

Given, the position of the particle along the x axis is

$\rm x=ct^2-bt^3.$

The units of terms $\rm ct^2$ and $\rm bt^3$ should also be same as that of x, i.e., meters.

The unit of t is seconds.

(a):

Unit of $\rm ct^2=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm c= meter/ second^2.$

(b):

Unit of $\rm bt^3=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm b= meter/ second^3.$

(c):

The velocity v and the position x of a particle are related as

$\rm v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dx}(ct^2-bt^3)\\=2ct-3bt^2.$

(d):

The acceleration a and the velocity v of the particle is related as

$\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(2ct-3bt^2)\\=2c-6bt.$

(e):

The particle attains maximum x at, let's say, $\rm t_o$ , when the following two conditions are fulfilled:

$\rm \left (\dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0.$
$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Applying both these conditions,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0\\2ct_o-3bt_o^2=0\\t_o(2c-3bt_o)=0\\t_o=0\ \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ 2c=3bt_o\Rightarrow t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

For $\rm t_o = 0$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6\cdot 0=2c$

Since, c is a positive constant therefore, for $\rm t_o = 0$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}>0$

Thus, particle does not reach its maximum value at $\rm t = 0\ s.$

For $\rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6b\cdot \dfrac{2c}{3b}=2c-4c=-2c.$

Here,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Thus, the particle reach its maximum x value at time $\rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

A person is sitting at the very back of a canoe of length L, when the front just bumps into the dock. show answer No Attempt 50%

Pavel [41]

The distance of the canoeist from the dock is equal to length of the canoe, L.

<h3>Conservation of linear momentum</h3>

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

v(m₁ + m₂) = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

where;

v is the velocity of the canoeist and the canoe when they are together

u₁ is the velocity of the canoe
u₂ velocity of the canoeist
m₁ mass of the canoe
m₂ mass of the canoeist

<h3>Distance traveled by the canoeist</h3>

The distance traveled by the canoeist from the back of the canoe to the front of the canoe is equal to the length of the canoe.

Thus, the distance of the canoeist from the dock is equal to length of the canoe, L.
