Answer:
5.959 m/s
Explanation:
m = Mass of gymnast
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
= Initial height
= Final height
From conservation of Energy
Velocity of gymnast at bottom of swing is 5.959 m/s
72 m/s
Explanation:
Given,
Frequency ( f ) = 6 Hz
Wavelength ( λ ) = 12 m
To find : -
Speed ( v ) = ?
Formula : -
v = f x λ
v
= 6 x 12
= 72 m/s
Therefore,
the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 Hz and a wavelength of 12 m is 72 m/s.
The height difference is found by
Then the change in potential energy is
Answer:
a) 6.1 m
b) 4.6 s
c) 1.326 m/s
d) 0.325 m
Explanation:
a) The wave length is the distance between 2 crests λ = 6.1m
b) The period of the wave is the time it takes from the lowest point to the next lowest point, which is twice the time it takes from the lowest point to the highest point = 2*2.3 = 4.6 s
c) The speed of the wave is the distance per unit of time, or wave length over period = 6.1 / 4.6 = 1.326 m/s
d)The amplitude A is half the distance from the highest point to the lowest point = 0.65 / 2 = 0.325 m
