The speed of the wave is 1000 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of a wave will always be equal to the product of wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Since, here the wavelength is given as 10 m and frequency is given as 100 Hz, the multiplication of these two terms will specify the speed of that wave.

Speed = Wavelength × Distance

Speed = 100 × 10 = 1000 m/s.

So, the speed of the wave is 1000 m/s.

A small glider is coasting horizontally when suddenly a very heavy piece of cargo falls out of the bottom of the plane.

Answer:

a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

Explanation:

Just to make it clear, the question is as follows from what I understand.

A small glider is coasting horizontally when suddenly a very heavy piece of cargo falls out of the bottom of the plane. You can neglect air resistance.

Just after the cargo has fallen out:

a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

b. The cargo slows down but the plane does not change speed.

c. Neither the cargo nor the plane change speed.

d. The plane speeds up and the cargo slows down.

e. Both the cargo and the plane speed up.

And we are requested to choose the right answer under the given conditions. We know the glider has no motor, then it must be in free fall movement, then it is experiencing some force that pulls it to the from due to the gravity effect on it, and a force in general is calculated by

F=m*a, m:= mass of the object, a:= acceleration.

Here we are only considering the horizontal effect of the forces, then since the mass is reduced the acceleration must increase to compensate and maintain the equilibrium of the forces, then the glider being lighter can travel faster due to the acceleration. On the other hand by the time the cargo left the glider there was no acceleration and the speed it had at the moment he left the plane continues, then the cargo does not change its speed, then horizontally speaking the answer would be a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

$GPE=mgh$
