-- The train starts at 23 m/s and slows down by 0.25 m/s every second.

So it'll take (23/0.25) = 92 seconds to stop.

-- Its average speed during that time will be (1/2)(23+0) = 11.5 m/s

-- Moving at an average speed of 11.5 m/s for 92 sec, the train will cover

(11.5 m/s) x (92 sec) = <em>1,058 meters</em> .

Answer:

A = 2 cm , λ = 8 cm

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum height it has, in this case the height is measured by the vertical ruler,

We are told the balance point is in the reading of 5 cm, that the maximum reading is 3 cm and the Minimum reading is 7 cm. Therefore, the distance from the ends of the ridge to the point of equilibrium is

d = 7-5 = 2 cm

d = 5-3 = 2 cm

A = 2 cm

The wavelength is the minimum horizontal distance for which the wave is repeated, that is measured by the horizontal ruler.

The initial reading for 4 cm and the final reading for 8 cm, this distance corresponds to a crest of the wave, the complete wave is formed by two crests whereby the wavelength is twice this value

Δx = 8-4 = 4 cm

λ = 2 Δx

λ = 8 cm
