Answer: 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

length of water wave (λ) = 10 metres

Frequency of water wave (F) = 30 Hertz

Velocity of water wave (V) = ?

The velocity of a wave is the distance covered by the wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V. It is related to frequency and wave length by the formula: V = F λ

V = 30 Hertz x 10 metres

V = 300 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the water wave is 300 m/s

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The answer is " $1.01 \times 10^{-13}$ "

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation for energy. Equating the kinetic energy to the potential energy.

$KE=U=\frac{kqq'}{r}\\\\$

Calculating the closest distance:

$\to r=\frac{kqq'}{KE}\\\\$

$=\frac{k(2e)(79e)}{KE}\\\\=\frac{k(2)(79)e^2}{KE}\\\\=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \ N \cdot \frac{m^2}{c}(2)(79)(1.6 \times10^{-19} \ C)^2}{(2.25\ meV) (\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-13} \ J}{1 \ MeV})}\\\\$

$=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \times 2\times 79\times 1.6 \times10^{-19}\times 1.6 \times10^{-19} }{(2.25 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-13}) }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32\times 10^{-29}}{3.6 \times 10^{-13} }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32}{3.6} \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1011.2 \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1.01 \times 10^{-13}$

A very long straight wire has charge per unit length 1.44×10-10C/m.

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Distance of the point where electric filed is 2.45 N/C is 1.06 m

Explanation:

We have given charge per unit length, that is liner charge density $\lambda =1.44\times 10^{-10}C/m$

Electric field E = 2.45 N/C

We have to find the distance at which electric field is 2.45 N/C

We know that electric field due to linear charge is equal to

$E=\frac{\lambda }{2\pi \epsilon _0r}$ , here $\lambda$ is linear charge density and r is distance of the point where we have to find the electric field

So $2.45=\frac{1.44\times 10^{-10} }{2\times 3.14\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times r}$

r = 1.06 m

So distance of the point where electric filed is 2.45 N/C is 1.06 m

A balloon-powered car rolls across the floor at a speed of 0.711 m/s. How long does it take to cover 8.25 m?

devlian [24]

Answer:

Time = 11.60 seconds.

Explanation:

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

Given the following data;

Speed = 0.711m/s

Distance = 8.25m

To find the time;

Making time the subject of formula, we have;

$Time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Time = \frac{8.25}{0.711}$

Time = 11.60 secs.

In 5 meters, a person running at 0.8 m/s accelerates at 1.6 m/s2. How fast 16 points

frutty [35]

They were going at a velocity 4.07m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Distance s =5 m

initial velocity u= 0.8 m/s

Acceleration a =1.6m/s2

We have to calculate the velocity with which they were going afterwards i.e final velocity.

Use the equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2as\\=0.8^2+2\times 1.6\times 5\\=16.64\\v=4.07 m/s$

They were going with a velocity 4.07 m/s afterwards.

The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf. t/f

Svet_ta [14]

The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf is false. The kinetic energy on the shelf is zero because it is not in action.
