aliya0001 [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Option D) 4A

Explanation:

As the cycle of the wave passes by, the amplitude gives the longest journey when the spot travels from the undistributed position. During each cycle the spot travels "Four times" .

Considering one of this cycle, if it begins to travel from it's undistributed position , there would be four movements i.e

* Upward movement through distance A

*Downward movement through distance A

*Downward again through distance A

*Upward through distance A.

Then it would travel back to its undistributed position held

What is the mathematical relationship between wavelength and velocity? Inverse, horizontal, linear or quadratic? I NEED MAJOR HE
Tju [1.3M]

Answer: Wavelength is the measure of the length of a complete wave cycle. The velocity of a wave is the distance traveled by a point on the wave. In general, for any wave the relation between Velocity and Wavelength is proportionate. It is expressed through the wave velocity formula.

Explanation: For any given wave, the product of wavelength and frequency gives the velocity. It is mathematically given by wave velocity formula written as-

V=f×λ

Where,

V is the velocity of the wave measure using m/s.

f is the frequency of the wave measured using Hz.

λ is the wavelength of the wave measured using m. Velocity and Wavelength Relation

Amplitude, Frequency, wavelength, and velocity are the characteristic of a wave. For a constant frequency, the wavelength is directly proportional to velocity.

Given by:

V∝λ

Example:

For a constant frequency, If the wavelength is doubled. The velocity of the wave will also double.

For a constant frequency, If the wavelength is made four times. The velocity of the wave will also be increased by four times.

Hope you understood the relation between wavelength and velocity of a wave. I truely hope this helps you out tho! Goodluck!

A missile is moving 1350 m/s at a 25.0° angle. It needs to hit a target 23,500 m away in a 55.0° direction in 10.20 s. What is d
QveST [7]

Answer:

  The target's velocity is about 1320 m/s in the direction 265.7°.

Explanation:

In order for there to be a collision between missile and target, we must have ...

  (target starting position) + (target movement) = (missile movement)

assuming the missile starts from the origin of all measurements. The missile moves 10.2 seconds before impact, so moves a distance of ...

  (10.2 s)(1350 m/s) = 13,770 m

__

We are interested in the target movement, so we can solve for that:

  (target movement) = (missile movement) - (target starting position)

In terms of meters, this is ...

  (target movement) = 13770∠25° - 23500∠55° ≈ 13467.74∠-94.3°

The target covers this distance in the same 10.2 seconds before collision, so its speed is (13467.74 m)/(10.2 s) ≈ 1320.4 m/s.

As a positive angle, the target's direction is ...

  -94.3° +360° = 265.7°

The direction of the target's velocity is 265.7°.

_____

If you're calculating this by hand, there are a couple of ways you can do it. You can convert to rectangular coordinates and back (perhaps least confusing), or you can use the law of cosines to solve the triangle, then translate angles back to the x-y coordinate plane.

Using rectangular coordinates, we have ...

  13770∠25° = 13770(cos(25°), sin(25°)) ≈ (12479.9, 5819.45)

  23500∠55° = 23500(cos(55°), sin(55°)) ≈ (13479.0, 19250.1)

Then the difference is ...

  (12479.9, 5819.45) -(13479.0, 19250.1) ≈ (-999.188, -13430.6)

and the (3rd-quadrant) angle is ...

  target direction = arctan(-13430.6/-999.188) ≈ -94.3° = 265.7°

__

The target's speed is found by dividing the distance it covers by the time it takes.

  √(13430.6² +999.188²)/10.2 ≈ 1320.36 . . . m/s

During the middle of a family picnic, Barry Allen received a message that his friends Bruce and Hal
weeeeeb [17]

The kinematics of the uniform motion and the addition of vectors allow finding the results are:

  • The  Barry's initial trajectory is 94.30 10³ m with n angles of θ = 138.8º
  • The return trajectory and speed are v = 785.9 m / s, with an angle of 41.2º to the South of the East

Vectors are quantities that have modulus and direction, so they must be added using vector algebra.

A simple method to perform this addition in the algebraic method which has several parts:

  • Vectors are decomposed into a coordinate system
  • The components are added
  • The resulting vector is constructed

 Indicate that Barry's velocity is constant, let's find using the uniform motion thatthe distance traveled in ad case

              v = \frac{\Delta d}{t}

              Δd = v t

Where  v is the average velocity, Δd the displacement and t the time

We look for the first distance traveled at speed v₁ = 600 m / s for a time

          t₁ = 2 min = 120 s

          Δd₁ = v₁ t₁

          Δd₁ = 600 120

          Δd₁ = 72 10³ m

Now we look for the second distance traveled for the velocity v₂ = 400 m/s    

  time t₂ = 1 min = 60 s

          Δd₂ = v₂ t₂

          Δd₂ = 400 60

          Δd₂ = 24 103 m

   

In the attached we can see a diagram of the different Barry trajectories and the coordinate system for the decomposition,

We must be careful all the angles must be measured counterclockwise from the positive side of the axis ax (East)

Let's use trigonometry for each distance

Route 1

          cos (180 -35) = \frac{x_1}{\Delta d_1}

          sin 145 = \frac{y_1}{\Delta d1}

          x₁ = Δd₁ cos 125

          y₁ = Δd₁ sin 125

          x₁ = 72 103 are 145 = -58.98 103 m

          y₁ = 72 103 sin 155 = 41.30 10³ m

Route 2

          cos (90+ 30) = \frac{x_2}{\Delta d_2}

          sin (120) = \frac{y_2}{\Delta d_2}

          x₂ = Δd₂ cos 120

          y₂ = Δd₂ sin 120

          x₂ = 24 103 cos 120 = -12 10³ m

           y₂ = 24 103 sin 120 = 20,78 10³ m

             

The component of the resultant vector are

              Rₓ = x₁ + x₂

              R_y = y₁ + y₂

              Rx = - (58.98 + 12) 10³ = -70.98 10³ m

              Ry = (41.30 + 20.78) 10³ m = 62.08 10³ m

We construct the resulting vector

Let's use the Pythagoras' Theorem for the module

             R = \sqrt{R_x^2 +R_y^2}

             R = \sqrt{70.98^2 + 62.08^2}   10³

             R = 94.30 10³ m

We use trigonometry for the angle

             tan θ ’= \frac{R_y}{R_x}

             θ '= tan⁻¹ \frac{R_y}{R_x}

             θ '= tan⁻¹ \frac{62.08}{70.98}

             θ ’= 41.2º

Since the offset in the x axis is negative and the displacement in the y axis is positive, this vector is in the second quadrant, to be written with respect to the positive side of the x axis in a counterclockwise direction

            θ = 180 - θ'

            θ = 180 -41.2

            θ = 138.8º

Finally, let's calculate the speed for the way back, since the total of the trajectory must be 5 min and on the outward trip I spend 3 min, for the return there is a time of t₃ = 2 min = 120 s.

The average speed of the trip should be

             v = \frac{\Delta R}{t_3}  

             v = \frac{94.30}{120}  \ 10^3

              v = 785.9 m / s

in the opposite direction, that is, the angle must be

               41.2º to the South of the East

In conclusion, using the kinematics of the uniform motion and the addition of vectors, results are:

  • To find the initial Barry trajectory is 94.30 10³ m with n angles of  138.8º
  • The return trajectory and speed is v = 785.9 m / s, with an angle of 41.2º to the South of the East
