Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second

s. The markings on the post submerged in water indicate that the water level fluctuates from a trough at 6.0 meters to a crest at 9.0 meters. What is the period of the wave?

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The period of the wave is <u><em>4 seconds</em></u>

<h3><em><u>Explanation;</u></em></h3>
  • <em><u>The period of a wave or periodic time is the time taken for one complete oscillation to occur.</u></em> In this case, one complete oscillation occurs when the wave moves from one crest to the next or a trough to the next. <em><u>This takes 4 seconds. Therefore the period is 4 seconds.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Frequency on the other hand is the number of oscillations by a wave in one second. Thus, f = 1/T, that is frequency is the reciprocal of periodic time.</u></em>

Joe noted that the temperature in his aquarium dropped overnight. He concluded that thermal energy moved from the aquarium to th
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

 validate                                            

Explanation:

<u>Law of Conservation of energy</u>

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy of a body or a system gets transferred to another system as different energy. We cannot create energy nor we can destroy energy. Energy is always transformed into other forms of energy.

In the context, Joe noticed that the aquarium's temperature dropped during the night and he concluded that according to the law of conservation of energy, the energy of the aquarium in terms of thermal energy is being transferred to the surrounding air.

This is because the aquarium is considered to be an open system where energy can come in and move out.

Hence Joe's statement is valid.

The minimum stopping distance of a car moving at 20.5 mi/h is 11.6 m. Under the same conditions (so that the maximum braking for
pshichka [43]

Answer:

d = 69 .57 meter

Explanation:

First case

Speed of car ( v )  = 20.5 mi/h  = 9.164  M/S

distance ( d ) = 11.6 meter                                       ( m = mass of the car )

Work done = 0.5 m v²  = 0.5 * 9.164² * m J  = 41.99 m J

Force = ( workdone /distance ) = ( 41.99 m / 11.6 )   =  3.619 m N

Second case

v = 50.2 mi/h = 22.44135 m/s

d = ?

Work done = 0.5 * 22.44² * m J = 251.7768 * m J

Since the braking force remains the same .

3.619 m = ( 251.7768 m / d )

d = 69 .57 meter

An ant crawls 50 cm to the right, stops, and then crawls 30 cm to the left. Calculate the distance that the ant travels, and cal
borishaifa [10]

Answer and Explanation:

If the ant was to crawl 50cm to the right, then come back 30 cm, then the total distance walked would be <u>80cm</u>.

- Combine 50cm and 30cm to get 80 cm.

For displacement, the answer is <u>20 cm.</u>

- When calculating displacement, you use the initial (starting) distance. and subtract that from the final distance, giving you the displacement, or the amount traveled from the starting point to the final point if you were to make a straight line from the starting point to end point. (0 to 50, then back 30 the same direction, so subtract 30 from 50 to get 20)
