To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Period based on the length of its rope and gravity, mathematically it can be expressed as

$T= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

g = Gravity

L = Length

T = Period

Re-arrange to find the gravity we have

$g = \frac{4\pi^2 L}{T^2}$

Our values are given as

$L = 0.35m\\T = 2s\\$

Replacing we have

$g = \frac{4\pi^2 L}{T^2}$

$g = \frac{4\pi^2 0.35}{2^2}$

$g = 3.45 m/s^2$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

How is wave movement affected by the various mediums it may travel through?

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

speed is affected by the medium in wich the wave travels.

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is affected when traveling in different medium, depending on the medium in which the wave travels it can go faster or slower, or not even be able to travel in that medium.

For light waves, the denser the medium through which the wave travels, the slower it will go through it, as there is more resistance to the light particles.

And in waves like sound, which instead of particles is a vibration or disturbance in the medium, they travel faster in denser mediums such as metal, because the disturbance is transmitted more efficiently thanks to how close together that the particles are in the metal, This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum; there are not even particles to transmit the vibration.

For this discussion, you will work in groups to answer the questions. In a video game, airplanes move from left to right along t

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

When fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

When fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

When fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

When fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)

Explanation:

All of the parts of the problem are solved in the same way, so let's start with the first point (1,3).

Let's assume that the rocket's trajectory will be a straight line, so what we need to do here is to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane and then find the x-intercept of such a line.

In order to find the line tangent to the graph of the trajectory of the airplane, we need to start by finding the derivative of such a function:

$y=2+\frac{1}{x}$

$y=2+x^{-1}$

$y'=-x^{-2}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=1, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(1)^{2}}$

m=y'=-1

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-3=-1(x-1})$

$y-3=-1x+1$

$y=-x+1+3$

$y=-x+4$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-x+4=0$

and solve for x

x=4

so, when fired from (1,3) the rocket will hit the target at (4,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2, 2.5)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{4}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2})$

$y-2.5=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{5}{2}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+3$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{4}x+3=0$

and solve for x

x=12

so, when fired from (2, 2.5) the rocket will hit the target at (12,0)

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (2.5, 2.4)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=2.5, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(2.5)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{4}{25}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}(x-2.5})$

$y-2.4=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{2}{5}+2.4$

$y=-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{4}{25}x+\frac{14}{5}=0$

and solve for x

$x=\frac{35}{20}$

so, when fired from (2.5, 2.4) the rocket will hit the target at $(\frac{35}{2},0)$

Now, let's calculate the coordinates where the rocket will hit the target if fired from (4, 2.25)

so, we can substitute the x-value of the given point into the derivative, in this case x=4, so:

$y'=-\frac{1}{x^{2}}$

$y'=-\frac{1}{(4)^{2}}$

$m=y'=-\frac{1}{16}$

so we can now use this slope and the point-slope form of the line to find the equation of the line tangent to the trajectory of the airplane so we get:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}(x-4})$

$y-2.25=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{1}{4}+2.25$

$y=-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}$

So we can now set y=0 so find the x-coordinate where the rocket hits the x-axis.

$-\frac{1}{16}x+\frac{5}{2}=0$

and solve for x

$x=40$

so, when fired from (4,2.25) the rocket will hit the target at (40,0)
