Answer:

v = 1.6 \frac{m}{s} *\frac{100cm}{1m}= 160 \frac{cm}{s}

Explanation:

If we have a periodic wave we need to satisfy the following basic relationship:

v = \lambda f

From the last formula we see that the velocity is proportional fo the frequency.

For this case we have the following info given by the problem:

T= 0.2 s, \lambda =32 cm* \frac{1m}{100cm} =0.32 m, A= 3cm*\frac{1m}{100 cm}=0.03 m

We know that the frequency is the reciprocal of the period so we have this formula:

f = \frac{1}{T}

And if we replace we got:

f =\frac{1}{0.2 s}= 5Hz

Now since we have the value for the wavelength we can find the velocity like this:

v = 0.32 m * 5Hz = 1.6 \frac{m}{s}

And if we convert this into cm/s we got:

v = 1.6 \frac{m}{s} *\frac{100cm}{1m}= 160 \frac{cm}{s}

Determine the image distance and image height for a 5.00 cm tall object placed 30.0 cm from a double convex lens with a focal le
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The image distance is 30 cm

image height = - 5 cm

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the image distance is expressed as

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

From the information given,

u = 30

f = 15

By substituting these values into the formula,

1/15 = 1/30 + 1/v

1/v = 1/15 - 1/30 = (2 - 1)/30 = 1/30

Taking the reciprocal of both sides,

v = 30

The image distance is 30 cm

magnification = image height/object height = - v/u

Given that object height = 5 cm, then

image height/5 = - 30/30 = - 1

image height = - 5 * 1

image height = - 5 cm
