Suppose that a wave forms in shallow water. Then the depth d of the water (in meters) and the velocity v of the wave (in meters

per second) are related by the equation =v9.8d. If a wave formed in shallow water has a velocity of 4.5 meters per second, what is the water's depth?

Explanation:

The depth d of the water (in meters) and the velocity v of the wave (in meters per second) are related by the equation as:

v=9.8d

We need to find the water's depth is a a wave formed in shallow water has a velocity of 4.5 m/s.

So,

d=\dfrac{v}{9.8}\\\\d=\dfrac{4.5}{9.8}\\\\d=0.459\ m

Hence, if the wave formed in shallow water has a velocity of 4.5 m/s, then the water's depth is 0.459 m.

What is newton's third law second law first law ?​
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

first law: an object remains in uniform motion except an external force has acted upon it eg a ball in stable motion doesn't move until one moves or kicks it

second law:the body acted upon by an external force gains a momentum which is directly proportional to the applied force and acts in the direction of the force

third law: to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction eg if u push someone the person moves backward away from you and not towards you

In a mattress test, you drop a 7.0 kg bowling ball from a height of 1.5 m above a mattress, which as a result compresses 15 cm a
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

(c) 10.29 J

(d) 113.19 J

(e) 113.19 J

(f) 10061 N/m

Explanation:

15 cm = 0.15 m

Let g = 9.8 m/s2

(c) The work done by gravitational force is the product of gravity force and the distance compressed

E_p = mgx = 7*9.8*0.15 = 10.29 J

(d) By using law of energy conservation with potential energy reference being 0 at the maximum compression point. As the ball falls and come to a stop at the compression point, its potential energy is transferred to elastic energy, which is the work that the mattress does on the ball:

E_p = E_e

E_e = mgh

where h = 1.5 + 0.15 = 1.65 m is the vertical distance that it falls.

E_e = 7*9.8*1.65 = 113.19 J

(e) Before the compression, the potential energy of the mattress is 0. After the compression, the potential energy is 113.19J. So it has increased by 113.19J due to the potential energy transferred from the falling ball.

(f) E_e = 113.19 = kx^2/2

k0.15^2/2 = 113.19

k = 10061 N/m

Explain why the speed of light is lower than 3.0 × 108 m/s as it goes through different media.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

air or vacuum is the least refractive index medium of most rare medium

all other medium has more value of refractive index and hence the speed will be less than the speed of the air

Explanation:

As we know that speed of light in any medium and speed of light in air is related to each other by the equation

v = \frac{c}{\mu}

here we know that

c = 3 \times 10^8 m/s

[tex]\mu [tex] = refractive index of the medium

so we know that air or vacuum is the least refractive index medium of most rare medium

all other medium has more value of refractive index and hence the speed will be less than the speed of the air
