Ocean waves of wavelength 26 m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.0 m/s . The waves reflect from the wall,

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

wavelength λ = 26 m

velocity v = 4.0 m/s

a) How far from the wall is she?

Now, The first antinode is formed at a distance λ/2 from the wall, since the separation distance between the person and wall is;

x = λ/2

we substitute

x = 26 m / 2

x = 13 m

Therefore, the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) What is the period of her up-and-down motion?

we know that the relationship between frequency, wavelength and wave speed is;

v = fλ

hence, f = v/λ

we also know that frequency is expressed as the reciprocal of the time period;

f = 1/T

Hence

1/T = v/λ

solve for T

Tv = λ

T = λ/v

we substitute

T = 26 m / 4 m/s

T = 6.5 s

Therefore, the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

4. What is the magnitude and direction of the gravitational force that acts on a man

Cloud [144]

The gravitational force acting on the man is 800 N towards the Earth's centre

Explanation:

The weight of an object on the Earth is exactly the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the object.

The gravitational force exerted by the Earth on an object located at the Earth's surface is given by:

$F=G\frac{Mm}{R^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the mass of the object

R is the radius of the Earth

And the direction of the force is towards the Earth's centre.

Since G, M and R are constant, they are grouped into a single constant called g, acceleration of gravity:

$g=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

therefore the gravitational force can be rewritten as

$F=mg$

And this is the usual equation that we use to calculate the weight of an object.

Therefore, weight and gravitational force acting on an object on Earth are the same thing: so, the gravitational force acting on the man is equal to his weight, 800 N, and it acts towards the Earth's center.

A train whistle is heard at 300 Hz as the train approaches town. The train cuts its speed in half as it nears the station, and t

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of the train using the Doppler equation:

$f = f_{0}\frac{v + v_{o}}{v - v_{s}}$

Where:

f₀: is the emitted frequency

f: is the frequency heard by the observer

v: is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

$v_{o}$ : is the speed of the observer = 0 (it is heard in the town)

$v_{s}$ : is the speed of the source =?

The frequency of the train before slowing down is given by:

$f_{b} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}$ (1)

Now, the frequency of the train after slowing down is:

$f_{a} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}$ (2)

Dividing equation (1) by (2) we have:

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}}{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}}$

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - v_{s_{b}}}$ (3)

Also, we know that the speed of the train when it is slowing down is half the initial speed so:

$v_{s_{b}} = 2v_{s_{a}}$ (4)

Now, by entering equation (4) into (3) we have:

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - 2v_{s_{a}}}$

$\frac{300 Hz}{290 Hz} = \frac{343 m/s - v_{s_{a}}}{343 m/s - 2v_{s_{a}}}$

By solving the above equation for $v_{s_{a}}$ we can find the speed of the train after slowing down:

$v_{s_{a}} = 11.06 m/s$

Finally, the speed of the train before slowing down is:

$v_{s_{b}} = 11.06 m/s*2 = 22.12 m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

I hope it helps you!
