A cruise ship is moving at constant speed through the water. The vacationers on the ship are eager to arrive at their next desti

nation. They decide to try to speed up the cruise ship by gathering at the bow (the front) and running together toward the stern (the back) of the ship.(a) While they are running toward the stern, what is the speed of the ship?1.higher than it was before they started running
2. unchanged from what it was before they started running

3. lower than it was before they started running

Answer: 1. higher than it was before they started running

Explanation: As the vacationers run towards the back(stern) of the ship the exerting more pressure against the pressure exerted by the wave supporting the moving ship,the pressure exerted on the moving ship will be increased, leading to a slight increase in the speed of the ship compared to the speed before they started running towards the back(stern) of the ship.

Given that the wavelengths of visible light range from 400 nm to 700 nm, what is the highest frequency of visible light? (ccc =
enot [183]

7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz is the highest frequency of visible light when wavelengths of visible light range from 400 nm to 700 nm.

The distance a wave travels in one unit of time is known as the wave speed (v).Taking into account that the wave travels one wavelength in one interval,

v=λ/T

Given that T = 1/f, we can write the equation above as,

V = f λ

Given data:

Minimum wavelength of visible light = 400 nm = 4 × 10⁻⁷ m

Speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Frequency = c/λ = 3 × 10⁸ / 4 × 10⁻⁷

= 7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz

You have two identical beakers A and B. Each beaker is filled with water to the same height. Beaker B has a rock floating at the
gregori [183]

Answer:

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water the weight of the two beakers is the same

Explanation:

The beaker weight is

 beaker A

          W_total = W_ empty + W_water

Beaker B

            W_total = W_ empty + W_water + W_roca

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water, the weight of the two beakers is the same because the amount of liquid spilled and equal to the weight of the stone, therefore the two beakers weigh the same

A kangaroo jumps straight up to a vertical height of 1.45 m. How long was it in the air before returning to Earth?
dexar [7]

Answer:

1.08 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) reached = 1.45 m

Time of flight (T) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the kangaroo to return from the height of 1.45 m. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1.45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1.45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.45 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.45/4.9)

t = 0.54 s

Note: the time taken to fall from the height(1.45m) is the same as the time taken for the kangaroo to get to the height(1.45 m).

Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the kangaroo before returning to the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the height = 0.54 s

Time of flight (T) =?

T = 2t

T = 2 × 0.54

T = 1.08 s

Therefore, it will take the kangaroo 1.08 s to return to the earth.
