<span>The speed of a wave, V, is f *lambda. Where f is the frequency and lambda is the distance. If a new crest reaches the end every 4 secs; it takes 8s to cover the distance. Hence, f, which is the number of oscillations covered is 8s. So we have V = 8 * 5 = 40 ms^1.</span>

9. A Veggie meatball with v = 5.0 m/s rolls off a 1.0 m high table. How long does it take to hit the floor if no one sneezes? Wh
Paha777 [63]

By Considering the vertical distance and both vertical and horizontal final velocity, the time t = 0.45 s and Velocity V = 6.7 m/s

Given that a Veggie meatball with v = 5.0 m/s rolls off a 1.0 m high table.

Height h = 1.0 m

As the ball rolls off the table, it will be fallen under gravity. Where

g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Initial vertical velocity u_{y} = 0

Initial horizontal velocity u_{x} = 5 m/s

Considering the vertical distance, the formula to use to calculate the time will be;

h = ut + 1/2gt^{2}

1 = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8t^{2}

1 = 4.9t^{2}

t^{2} = 1/4.9

t = \sqrt{0.204}

t = 0.45 seconds

It takes 0.45 seconds to hit the floor if no one sneezes.

To calculate its velocity when it hits the floor, we will need to calculate for both vertical and horizontal final velocity and find the resultant velocity of the two.

Vertical component

V_{y} = U_{y} + gt

V_{y} = 0 + 9.8(0.45)

V_{y} = 4.41 m/s

Horizontal component

V_{x} = u_{x} + at

but a = 0

V_{x} = 5 m/s

Final velocity V = \sqrt{5^{2} + 4.41^{2}  }

V = 6.67 m/s

Therefore, it will hit the floor at a velocity of 6.7 m/s

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation can be subdivided into three regions: UVA, UVB, and UVC, based on their energy. What are the minimum
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

100nm-280nm

Explanation:

Ultraviolet rays (UV) are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It goes from 10nm to 400nm wavelengths, they are shorter than visible light, thus it's impossible to see by a human eye, and larger than X-rays (used in many medical applications and harmful when long-exposed).

According to its wavelengths, UV can be divided in different types:

UVA: long wave UV (315nm-400nm)

UVB: medium-wave UV (280nm-315nm)

UVC: short wave UV (100nm-280nm)

Therefore, UVC comprises wavelengths between 10nm and 280nm.

If the overall magnification of a series of two lenses is 30x, and one lens magnifies 5x, what is the magnification of the other
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Overall magnification M=30 x

One lens magnification is 5 x

suppose the magnification of other lens is y

A compound lens is made up of series of lenses either  of same or of different magnification so

y is given by

y=\frac{30 x}{5 x}=6 x

If 5 x lens is replaced by 7 x lens then total magnification is

7 x\times 6 x=42 x

During a circus act, a performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of m1 = 7.5
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply law of conservation of momentum .

total Initial momentum =

7.5 x 8.85 = 66.375 kg m / s

total mass = 7.5 + 61.5 = 69 kg , common velocity of ball and performer be v

Total momentum = 69 v

69 v  = 66.375

v = 66.375 / 69

= .962 m /s .
