Yes

Explanation:

From the graph, we can deduce that the wavelength changes with the speed of the wave.

This is a simple linear graph. A linear graph has a steady gradient and it shows two variables that increases proportionately.

Using the graph, we can establish that as the wavelength of the wave increases the time taken for one wave to pass through increases.

The speed of a wave is given as:

V = fλ

f is the frequency of the wave i.e the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time

λ is the wavelength of the wave

The vertical axis on the graph shows the time for 1 wave trip, this is the wave period, T

f = $\frac{1}{T}$

Therefore;

speed of the wave = $\frac{λ}{T}$

This can be evaluated by solving slope of the graph and finding the inverse.

We can see that as the speed of the wave changes, the wavelength will change.

Two for are at an angle at 120 ,the bigger forces is 40N and the resultant is perpendicular to the smaller one. find the smaller

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

smaller force is 20

Explanation:

Let, magnitude of the smaller force be F Newton.

Now, the resultant force makes an angle 90° with the smaller force. So, angle between resultant force and the larger force = (120° - 90°) = 30°.

So, tan 30° = (F * sin 120°) / (40 + F * cos 120°)

(1 / √3) = {F * (√3) / 2} / {40 + F * (- 1 / 2)}

80 - F = 3F

4F = 80

F = 20.

So, magnitude of smaller force is 20 Newtons.

A cement block accidentally falls from rest from the ledge of a 52.9-m-high building. When the block is 14.3 m above the ground,

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The man has at most 0.418 secs to get out of the way

Explanation:

To determine how much time at most the man has to get out of the way, we will calculate the time it will take the block to reach height 1.94m from height 14.3m.

To do this, we will first determine the time it will take the block to reach height 1.94 m from height 52.9 m and find the time it takes the block to reach height 14.3m above the ground from the same height (52.9 m), the difference is the time the man has to get out of the way.

Now, the time it will take the block to reach height 1.94 m from height 52.9 m

This means the time it will take the block to travel a height distance of 52.9m - 1.94m = 50.96m

From one of the equations of motions for free falling bodies

h = ut + 1/2(gt²)

Where h is the height

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

and g is the acceleration due to gravity (Take g = 9.8 m/s²)

From the question, the block falls from rest

∴ u = 0 m/s

h = 50.96 m

Putting these into the equation

50.96 = 0(t) + 1/2(9.8)(t²)

50.96 = 4.9t²

t² = 50.96/4.9

t² = 10.4

t = √10.4

t = 3.225 secs

This is the time it will take to reach height 1.94m (that is to reach the man)

For the time it takes the block to reach height 14.3m above the ground from height 52.9 m

That is, the time it takes the block to travel a height distance of 52.9m - 14.3m = 38.6 m

Here,

h = 38.6 m

and u = 0 m/s

Putting these into the same equation

h = ut + 1/2(gt²)

38.6 = 0(t) + 1/2(9.8)(t²)

38.6 = 4.9t²

t² = 38.6/4.9

t² = 7.878

t = √7.878

t = 2.807 secs

This is the time it takes the block to reach height 14.3 m

Now, the difference in time is 3.225secs - 2.807 secs = 0.418 secs

Hence, the man has at most 0.418 secs to get out of the way.

Which of the following would be most likely to contribute to molecules

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

B. Containing charged regions

Explanation:

The term i.e. intermolecular forces would be used to explain the attraction forces. Here the interaction would be done between molecules etc that acts between the acts & the other types of particles i.e. neighboring like atoms or ions

So in the given case, the option b would be contributed to the molecules that have intermolecular forces

hence, the option b is correct
