A wave with a frequency of 0.5 Hz and a speed of 10 m/s has a wavelength of a. 50 m. c. 20 m. b. 0.5 m. d. 0.2 m.

1 answer:

5 0

We know, wavelength = speed / frequency
w = 10 / 0.5
w = 20 m

In short, Your Answer would be Option C) 20 m

Hope this helps!

Most comets have short periods and orbit close to the ecliptic plane. (T/F)

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most comets are located outside the solar system, in part of the cloud that originated from dust and gas that has remained virtually untouchable for billions of years. The orbit of these comets can reach the order of a light year. Thus, they are called long-period comets.

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is $L_{max} = 1.45m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass is $m =0.5 kg$

The vertical spring length is $L = 1.10m$

The unstretched length is $L_{un} = 1.30m$

The initial speed is $v_i = 1.3m/s$

The new length of the spring $L_{new} = 1.30 m$

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

$k = -\frac{F}{y}$

Where F is the force applied $= m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N$

y is the difference in weight which is $=1.10-0.50=0.6m$

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

Now substituting values accordingly

$k = \frac{4.9}{0.6}$

$= 8.17 N/m$

The elastic potential energy is given as $E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2$

where D is this the is the displacement

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

$E_T = initial \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy$

$E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 = \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Substituting value accordingly

$\frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2$

$4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69$

$D^2_{max} = 0.9033$

$D_{max} = 0.950m$

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

So we have

$L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m$

A) what is the light source for a plant growing in the shade?

Ulleksa [173]

a.) Plants that thrive in the shade are often able to hold on to sunlight for extensive periods of time; they're in a sense like the camels of the plaNt WoRld.

b.) Though artificial lights are not nearly as beneficial as the sun, one could invest in one of them plant growing light thingies, but sun-loving plants might be sad if u do this instead of letting them soak in ePic rays from the sun.
