Answer:
Amplitude: 2cm
Period: 1/12 s
Wavelength: 10 cm
Speed: 120 cm/s
Explanation:
The amplitud is the vertical distance from the resting position to the crest or to the trough, and the vertical distance from a crest to a trough is two times the amplitude. Therefore the amplitud (A) is:
A= 4cm/2= 2cm
The period (T) is:
s
The wavelength is defined as the horizontal distance from a crest to the nearest crest or from a trough to the nearest trough. The distance from a crest to the nearest tough was given. Therefore two times that distance is the distance from a crest to the nearest crest.
The wavelenght (λ) is:
λ=(2)(5)=10cm
The speed (v) in a wave is given by:
v = λf
v=(10)(12)=120 cm/s
Answer:
Pressure,
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the woman, m = 55 kg
Diameter of the circular cross section, d = 6 mm
Radius, r = 3 mm = 0.003 m
Let P is the pressure exerted on the floor. It is equal to the force acting on woman per unit area. It is given by :
So, the pressure exerted on the floor is . Hence, this is the required solution.
