PLEASE PROVIDE AN EXPLANATION.<br><br> THANKS!!!
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

(a) A = 0.0800 m, λ = 20.9 m, f = 11.9 Hz

(b) 250 m/s

(c) 1250 N

(d) Positive x-direction

(e) 6.00 m/s

(f) 0.0365 m

Explanation:

(a) The standard form of the wave is:

y = A cos ((2πf) t ± (2π/λ) x)

where A is the amplitude, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

If the x term has a positive coefficient, the wave moves to the left.

If the x term has a negative coefficient, the wave moves to the right.

Therefore:

A = 0.0800 m

2π/λ = 0.300 m⁻¹

λ = 20.9 m

2πf = 75.0 rad/s

f = 11.9 Hz

(b) Velocity is wavelength times frequency.

v = λf

v = (20.9 m) (11.9 Hz)

v = 250 m/s

(c) The tension is:

T = v²ρ

where ρ is the mass per unit length.

T = (250 m/s)² (0.0200 kg/m)

T = 1250 N

(d) The x term has a negative coefficient, so the wave moves to the right (positive x-direction).

(e) The maximum transverse speed is Aω.

(0.0800 m) (75.0 rad/s)

6.00 m/s

(f) Plug in the values and find y.

y = (0.0800 m) cos((75.0 rad/s) (2.00 s) − (0.300 m⁻¹) (1.00 m))

y = 0.0365 m

A body travels 10 meters during the first 5 seconds of its travel, and it travels a total of 30 meters over the first 10 seconds
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A body travels 10 meters during the first 5 seconds of its travel,and a total of 30 meters over the first 10 seconds of its travel

20miles / 5sec = 4miles /sec would be the average speed for the last 20 m

Explanation:

The answer is 4 m/s.

In the first 5 seconds, a body travelled 10 meters. In the first 10 seconds of the travel, the body travelled a total of 30 meters, which means that in the last 5 seconds, it travelled 20 meters (30m + 10m).

The relation of speed (v), distance (d), and time (t) can be expressed as:

v = d/t

We need to calculate the speed of the second 5 seconds of the travel:

d = 20 m (total 30 meters - first 10 meters)

t = 5 s (time from t = 5 seconds to t = 10 seconds)

Thus:

v = 20m / 5s = 4 m/s

The loudness of a sound is the waves amplitude <br><br><br><br> True or false
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

true i think

Explanation:

The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness or volume. A larger amplitude means a louder sound, and a smaller amplitude means a softer sound. In Figure 10.2 sound C is louder than sound B. The vibration of a source sets the amplitude of a wave.

Singly charged gas ions are accelerated from rest through a voltage of 10.3 V. At what temperature (in K) will the average kinet
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Temperature of the gas molecules is 7.96 x 10⁴ K

Explanation:

Given :

Ions accelerated through voltage, V = 10.3 volts

The work done to change the position of singly charged gas ions is given by the relation :

W = q x V

Here q is charge of the ions and its value is 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C.

Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is given by the relation:

K.E. = \frac{3}{2}kT

Here T is temperature and k is Boltzmann constant and its value is 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K.

According to the problem, the average kinetic energy of gas is equal to the work done to move the singly charged ions, i.e. ,

K.E. = W

\frac{3}{2}kT = qV

Rearrange the above equation in terms of T :

T= \frac{2qV}{3k}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

T=\frac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times10.3 }{3\times1.38\times10^{-23} }

T = 7.96 x 10⁴ K
