If a water wave completes one cycle in 2 seconds, what is

Physics
1 answer:
Novay_Z [31]3 years ago

The period of a wave is the time it takes the wave to complete one cycle (at a fixed location).

So if a wave completes one cycle in <em>2 seconds</em>, then that is its period.

A toy car goes over a small ramp at a horizontal velocity of 1.21 m/s and decelerates at 0.131 m/s2 while in the air. The total
xz_007 [3.2K]
We need to considerate only the horizontal component of the motion of the toy car.

The formula for the distance in a decelerated motion is:
s = s₀ + v₀·t - 1/2·a·t²

where:
s₀ = initial position = 0
v₀ = initial velocity = 1.21 m/s
t = time elapsed = 0.342 s
a = deceleration = 0.131 m/s²

Plugging in numbers:
s = 0 + 1.21×0.342 - 0.5×0.141×(0.342)²
  = 0.406 m

Hence, the toy car traveled a distance of about 41 cm.

The image formed by a plane mirror is _____.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
The image formed by a plane mirror is virtual, upright and the same size with the actual object. The upright image of an object in a plane mirror is can be found on the other side of the mirror which is why it is also virtual.

A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is    

                 Force = Mass x Acceleration

                         F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

                   7 = 12 + a x 2.6

                    a = -1.92 m/s²

Force,   F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Two charges, X and Y, are placed along the x-axis. Charge X is +18 nC and is placed at x = 0. Charge Y is placed at a location o
Helen [10]

Answer:

Charge Z can be placed at <em>x</em> = -2.7 m or at <em>x</em> = 0.27 m.

Explanation:

The Coulomb force between two charges, Q_1 and Q_2, separated by a distance, d, is given

F = k\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}

<em>k</em> is a constant.

For the charge Z to be at equilibrium, the force exerted on it by charge X must be equal and opposite to the force exerted on it by charge Y.

It is to be placed along the <em>x</em>-axis. Hence, it is on the same line as charges X and Y.

Let the charge on Z be <em>Q</em>. It is positive.

Let the distance from charge X be <em>x m.</em> Then the distance from charge Y will be (0.60 - <em>x</em>) m.

Force due to charge X

F_X = k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2}

Force due to charge Y

F_Y = k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}

Since both forces are equal and opposite,

F_X = -F_Y

k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2} = -k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}

\dfrac{2}{x^2} = \dfrac{3}{(0.60-x)^2}

2(0.60-x)^2 = 3x^2

2(0.36-1.20x+x^2) = 3x^2

0.72-2.40x+2x^2 = 3x^2

x^2+2.40x-0.72 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula,

x = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{2.40^2 - (4)(1)(-0.72)}}{2} = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{8.64}}{2}

x = -2.7 or x = 0.27

Charge Z can be placed at <em>x</em> = -2.7 m or at <em>x</em> = 0.27 m
