Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

Relation between wavelength and frequency of a wave is,

Wavelength (λ) ∝ \frac{1}{\text{Frequency}}

That means wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency of a wave.

When the wavelength of the wave is decreased, frequency of the wave will increase.

Therefore, if the distance across section 1 is decreased in the given picture,

wavelength gets decreased.

As a result frequency of the wave will increase.

Option (1) will be the answer.

A 58.1 kg wood board is resting on very smooth ice in the middle of a frozen lake. A 48.3 kg boy stands at one end of the board.
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

V = 1.41 m /s

Explanation:

Movement in both wood board and boy is created by internal forces . No horizontal external force acts on them . So conservation of momentum will apply on both of them for movement in horizontal direction.

Mass of wood board x velocity = mass of boy x velocity

58.1 x V = 48.3 x 1.69

V = 1.41 m /s

A meter stick balances horizontally on a knife-edge at the 50.0 cm mark. With two 4.79 g coins stacked over the 28.8 cm mark, th
masha68 [24]

To solve the exercise, the key concept to be addressed is the Mass Center.

The center of mass of an object is measured as,

X_{cm} = \frac{\sum m_ix_i}{\sum m_i}

X_{cm} = \frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3}

Our values are given by,

x_1 = 50cm

m_1 = ?

x_2 =28.8cm

m_2 = 4.79g

x_3 = 28.8cm

m_3 = 4.79g

X_{cm} = 38.4cm

Replacing the values in our previous equation we have,

X_{cm} = \frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3}

38.4 = \frac{m_1(50)+2(28.8*4.79)}{m_1+2*4.79}

38.4(m_1+2*4.79)= m_1(50)+2(28.8*4.79)

38.4m_1 +367.872 = 50m_1+275.904

11.6m_1 = 91.968

m_1 = 7.928g

Therefore the mass of the meter stick is 7.928g

If you swim with the current in a river, your speed is increased by the speed of the water; if you swim against the current, you
Blababa [14]

Answer:

11.23%

Explanation:

Lets take

Speed of man in still water =u= 1.73 m/s

Speed of flow of water = v=0.52 m/s

When swims in downward direction then speed of man = u + v

When swims in upward direction then speed of man = u - v

Lets time taken by man when he swims in downward direction is t_1 and when he swims in downward direction is t_2

Lets distance is d and it will be remain constant in both the case

d=(u+v)t_1

d=(u-v)t_2

(1.73+0.52)t_1=(1.73-0.52)t_2

t_2=1.85t_1

Time taken in still water

2 d= t x 1.73

t=1.15 x d sec

t_1=0.44d\ sec

t_2=0.82d\ sec

total time in current = 0.82 +0.44 d=1.26 d sec

So the percentage time

percentage\ time =\dfrac{1.28-1.15}{1.15}

 Percentage time =11.32%

So it will take 11.32% more time as compare to still current.
