Answer:

a. 0.18Hz

b. 0.56m/s

Explanation:

From the question we can deduct the following parameters

The wavelength, λ is define as the distance between two successful crest or trough and from the question we conclude that wavelength is 3.17m.

Also the period of the wave T can be computed as

T=22.6/4

T=5.65secs.

a. To compute the frequency, recall that frequency, F=1/period.

Hence,

F=1/5.65

F=0.18Hz

b. Next we compute the wave speed.

Wave speed=frequency *wavelength

Wave speed =0.18*3.17

Wave speed =0.56m/s

a parking lot is going to be 60m wide and 240m long which dimensions could be used please please help
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: The area of the parking lot is 14,400 meters squared.

Explanation:

We have the dimensions of the parking lot.

60m by 240m

The units used here are meters.

Now, if we want to know the area of the parking lot is equal to the product between the length and the width:

A = 60m*240m = 14,400 m^2

The area of the parking lot is 14,400 meters squared.

I will give brainliest to the best answer! I don’t understand vectors. This whole sheet is confusing me and i’m very behind, ple
Rudik [331]

Explanation:

1. To graphically add vectors, use the tail-to-tip method.  Draw the first vector (it doesn't matter which), then draw the second vector where the first vector ends.  The resultant vector is from the tail of the first vector to the tip of the second vector.

This graph shows two ways to get the resultant: A + B or B + A.

desmos.com/calculator/bqhcclhhqc

2. To algebraically add vectors, split each vector into x and y components.

Aₓ = 5.0 cos 45 = 3.5

Aᵧ = 5.0 sin 45 = 3.5

Bₓ = 2.0 cos 180 = -2.0

Bᵧ = 5.0 sin 180 = 0

The components of the resultant vector are the sums of the components of A and B.

Cₓ = 3.5 + -2.0 = 1.5

Cᵧ = 3.5 + 0 = 3.5

The magnitude of the resultant vector is found with Pythagorean theorem, and the direction is found with tangent.

C = √(Cₓ² + Cᵧ²) ≈ 3.9 m/s

θ = atan(Cᵧ / Cₓ) ≈ 67°

Len [333]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

It would not be C because prokaryotic cells don't have a nucleus. And if you're looking for a body in the cell that controls the nutrients and water it would be A.
