A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

a) v = 0.9167 m / s, b) A = 0.350 m, c) v = 0.9167 m / s, d) A = 0.250 m

Explanation:

a) to find the velocity of the wave let us use the relation

v = λ f

the wavelength is the length that is needed for a complete wave, in this case x = 5.50 m corresponds to a wavelength

λ = x

the period is the time for the wave to repeat itself, in this case t = 3.00 s corresponds to half a period

T / 2 = t

T = 2t

period and frequency are related

f = 1 / T

f = 1 / 2t

we substitute

v = x / 2t

v = 5.50 / 2 3

v = 0.9167 m / s

b) the amplitude is the distance from a maximum to zero

2A = y

A = y / 2

A = 0.700 / 2

A = 0.350 m

c) The horizontal speed of the traveling wave (waves) is independent of the vertical oscillation of the particles, therefore the speed is the same

v = 0.9167 m / s

d) the amplitude is

A = 0.500 / 2

A = 0.250 m

falling objects drop with an average acceleration of 9.8m/sec/sec. if an object falls from a tall building how long will it take

sveta [45]

Answer:

5 seconds

Explanation:

Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) ÷ time

$a = \frac{v - u}{t}$

$9.8 = \frac{49 - 0}{t}$

$9.8 = \frac{49}{t}$

$9.8t = 49$

$t = \frac{49}{9.8}$

$t = 5$

A sample of 5.6 L of a gas is at a pressure of 1.5 atm. If the volume of the gas is compressed to 4.8 L, what will the new press

Effectus [21]

Answer:

1.75atm

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, the pressure P of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to it's volume V provided that the temperature remains constant.

$P\alpha \frac{1}{V}\\hence\\PV=constant$

This implies the following;

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2=...=P_nV_n............(1)$ Provided temperature is kept constant.

Given;

$P_1=1.5atm\\V_1=5.6L\\P_2=?\\V_2=4.8L$

From equation (1), we can write;

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\hence\\1.5*5.6=P_2*4.8\\\\P_2=\frac{1.5*5.6}{4.8}\\\\P_2=1.75atm$

Since all the units are consistent, there is no need for conversion.

If the area of an iron rod is 10 cm by 0.5 cm and length is 35 cm. Find the value of resistance, if 11x10^-8 ohm.m be the resist

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Resistance of the iron rod, R = 0.000077 ohms

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of iron rod, $A=10\ cm\times 0.5\ cm=5\ cm^2 = 0.0005\ m^2$

Length of the rod, L = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Resistivity of Iron, $\rho=11\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the resistance of the iron rod. It is given by :

$R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}$

$R=11\times 10^{-8}\times \dfrac{0.35\ m}{0.0005\ m^2}$

$R=0.000077 \Omega$

So, the resistance of the rod is 0.000077 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

What does a negative value for the focal length tell you?

Llana [10]

the focal length is much more decent for a concave, and also worse for a convex mirror. When the image that is given, distance is good and decent, images are always on the same area of the mirror as the object given , and it is not fake. images distance is never positive , the image is on the oppisite side of the mirror, so the image must be virtual.
