Answer:

10. m/s

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 3.1 m

y = 0 m

a = -9.8 m/s²

t = 2.4 s

Find: v₀

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 m = 3.1 m + v₀ (2.4 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (2.4 s)²

v₀ = 10.47 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, the student's initial velocity was 10. m/s.

A 3 Hz wave has a wavelength of 0.4 m. Calculate the speed of the wave (in m/s).
anyanavicka [17]

The speed of the wave with the given frequency and wavelength is 1.2m/s.

Given the data in the question;

  • Wavelength of the wave; \lambda = 0.4m
  • Frequency; f = 3Hz = 3s^{-1}
  • Speed of the wave; v = \ ?

<h3>Wavelength</h3>

Wavelength is  the distance over which the shapes of waves are repeated. It is the spatial period of a periodic wave.

It is expressed as;

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where v is velocity/speed and f is frequency.

Now, we can easily get the speed of the wave by substituting our given values into the expression above.

\lambda = \frac{v}{f} \\\\0.4m = \frac{v}{3s^{-1}}\\ \\v = 0.4m * 3s^{-1}\\\\v = 1.2ms^{-1}\\\\v = 1.2m/s

Therefore, the speed of the wave with the given frequency and wavelength is 1.2m/s.

Astronauts on a distant planet set up a simple pendulum of length 1.2 m. The pendulum executes simple harmonic motion and makes
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

If you use P = 2 * pi * (L / g)^1/2  for the period of the simple pendulum

g = 4 * pi^2 * 1.2 / 2.8^2 = 6.04 m/s2

Note: omega = 2 pi * f = 2 pi / P  and omega = (g / L)^1/2

A balsa wood raft is 1.50 m long, 1.00 m wide, and 0.120 m high. the density of balsa is 380 kg/m^3. what is the mass of the raf
topjm [15]

Answer:

the mass of the raft is 68.4 kg

Explanation:

Since Mass is defined as Volume times Density, start by calculating the volume of the raft:

Volume = length x width x high = 1.5 m x 1.0 m x 0.12 m = 0.18 m^3

and now multiply it times the given density in order to find its mass:

Mass = Volume x Density = 0.18 m^3 x 380 kg/m^3 = 68.4 kg.

Notice that the m^3 units cancel out (they are in numerator and in denominator) leaving just the kg (a unit of mass) in the answer.

Therefore, the mass of the raft is 68.4 kg
