Crests of an ocean wave pass a pier every 10.0 s. if the waves are moving at 5.6 m/s, what is the wavelength of the ocean waves?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Every 10.0 seconds, a crest of the wave passes the pier. This means that the period of the wave is exactly 10.0 s:
T=10.0 s
which means that the frequency of the wave is
f= \frac{1}{T}= \frac{1}{10.0 s}=0.1 Hz

The wavelength of a wave is related to its frequency by the relationship
\lambda= \frac{v}{f}
where v is the speed of the wave.
In this problem, v=5.6 m/s; if we use the previous formula, we find the wavelength of the wave:
\lambda= \frac{5.6 m/s}{0.1 Hz}=56 m

In the design of a supermarket, there are to be several ramps connecting different parts of the store. Customers will have to pu
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

3.90 degrees

Explanation:

Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is

W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N

This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.

We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up

F = WsinΘ

Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N

F = 20

294.3sin\theta = 20

sin\theta = 20/294.3 = 0.068

\theta = sin^{-1}0.068 = 0.068 rad = 0.068*180/\pi \approx 3.90^0

So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees

If the density of an object is 5.2 g/cm3, and volume is 3.7 cm3, what is its mass
netineya [11]
Here's the equation you use: Density = mass/volume

1) 5.2g/cm^3 = m/3.7cm^3

2) m = 5.2g/cm^3 x 3.7cm^3

3) m = 19.24g

You can check the answer by plugging it in

19.24g/3.7cm^3
= 5.2g/cm^3

A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to
katovenus [111]
The correct answer should be c.The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

If the temperature drops that means that the molecules are coming together. If the temperature rises then it means that the molecules are spreading. If the kinetic energy falls down that means that they are slower which means that they are cooler.

(1 pt) A bucket of water of mass 20 kg is pulled at constant velocity up to a platform 35 meters above the ground. This takes 14
Elenna [48]

Answer:

w = 5832.372 Joules

Explanation:

Mass of water, m = 20 kg

The water was pulled up to a height of 35 meters, i.e. h = 35 m

It takes 14 minutes to pull up the water through the height, 35 m

speed = distance/ time = 35/14 = 2.5 m/min

The bucket's height, y = speed * time = 2.5t meters

6 kg of water drips out of the bucket throughout the 14 minutes

The rate at which the water drips drips out = (6/14) = 0.4286 kg/min

Mass of water that drips out in time, t = 0.4286t kg

The mass of water remaining = (20 - 0.4286t) kg

Change in Workdone, Δw = mgΔy

Δy = 2.5 Δt

Δw = mg *  2.5 Δt

dw =  (20 - 0.4286t)g2.5 dt

integrating both sides

dw = (50g - 1.07gt)dt

w = \int\limits^a_b {(50g-1.07gt)} \, dx where b = 0, a = 14

w = 50gt - 1.07g(t²)/2      g = 9.8 m/s²

w = 490t - 5.243t²

w = (490*14 - 5.243*14²) - (490*0 - 5.243*0²)

w = 6860 - 1027.628

w = 5832.372 Joules
