Answer:
Explanation:
a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.
b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or 
c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation
were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:
so
and
T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)
d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation
and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:
and
v = 50.0(20.0) so
v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s
And there you go!
Answer:
1.38*10^18 kg
Explanation:
According to the Newton's law of universal gravitation:
where:
G= Gravitational constant (6.674×10−11 N · (m/kg)2)
ma= mass of the astronaut
mp= mass of the planet
so:
Answer:
Both the astronauts and photographer have the same displacement
Explanation:
Displacement is the minimum distance between two point. The initial point of both the astronauts and the photographer was Florida and the final point was California. So, the minimum distance for both of the astronauts and the photographer would be the distance between Florida and California would be the same.
Hence, both the astronauts and photographer will have the same displacement.
Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.
i)
The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.
We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.
For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.
ΣF = 0
Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.
ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.
ΣM = 0
![(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%2815%2A9%29%20-%20%2818%2AW%29%20%3D%200%5C%5C135%20%3D%2018%2AW%5C%5CW%20%3D%207.5%20%5BN%5D)
