Answer:

(a) Frequency will be 0.168 Hz

(b) Frequency will be 0.0789 Hz

Explanation:

(a) We have given velocity of the ocean waves in east direction v = 3.2 m /sec

Distance between the crest \Delta x=\lambda =19m

We know that v=\lambda f

So 3.2=19\times  f

f=0.168Hz

(b)Velocity of the ocean waves in westward direction v = 1.5 m /sec

Distance between the crest \Delta x=\lambda =19m

We know that v=\lambda f

So 1.5=19\times  f

f=0.0789Hz

50g of ice at 0°C is mixed with 50g of water at 80°C, what will be the final temperature of a mixture in
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

0° C

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of ice, m = 50g

Mass of water, m(w) = 50g

Temperature of ice, T(i) = 0° C

Temperature of water, T(w) = 80° C

Also, it is known that

Specific heat of water, c = 1 cal/g/°C

Latent heat of ice, L(w) = 89 cal/g

Let us assume T to be the final temperature of mixture.

This makes the energy balance equation:

Heat gained by ice to change itself into water + heat gained by melted ice(water) to raise its temperature at T° C = heat lost by water to reach at T° C

m(i).L(i) + m(i).c(w)[T - 0] = m(w).c(w)[80 - T], on substituting, we have

50 * 80 + 50 * 1(T - 0) = 50 * 1(80 - T)

4000 + 50T = 4000 - 50T

0 = 100 T

T = 0° C

Thus, the final temperature is 0° C

A position vector with magnitude 10 m points to the right and up. its x-component is 6.0 m. part a what is the value of its y-co
lidiya [134]

The position vector can be transcribed as:

A<span> = 6 i + y j                           </span>

i <span>points in the x-direction and j points in the y-direction.</span>

The magnitude of the vector is its dot product with itself:

<span>|A|2 = A·A</span>

<span>102  = (6 i + y j)•(6 i+ y j)            Note that i•j = 0, and  i•i  = j•j = 1 </span>

<span>100  = 36 + y2       </span>

<span>64    = y2</span>

<span>get the square root of 64 = 8</span>

<span>The vertical component of the vector is 8 cm.</span>
