(a) The frequency of water wave is 2 Hz.

(b) The wave speed of the water wave is 3.6 m/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

(a) It is known that completion of one complete wave in 1 second is defined as frequency of 1 HZ. So here there are 120 waves crossing the boat in 1 minute. So the frequency of the water wave will be

            Frequency =\frac{\text { Number of waves }}{\text { Time in seconds }}

As the time is 1 minute which is equal to 60 seconds and the number of waves is given as 120 then the frequency of the water wave is

         \text { Frequency }=\frac{120}{60}=2 \mathrm{Hz}

So the frequency of water wave is 2 Hz.

(b) Then if the wavelength of the water wave is 1.8 m with a frequency of 2 Hz, then speed of the wave can be determined as the product of wavelength with frequency.

So Speed = Frequency × Wavelength

Speed = 2 × 1.8 = 3.6 m/s.

So the speed of the water wave is 3.6 m/s.

A 5.0 cm object is 12.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 24.0 cm. The distance between the image and the mirr
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The answer is 24cm

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the curved mirrors, a concave type

Given data

Object height h= 5cm

Object distance = 12cm

Focal length f=24cm

Let the image distance be v=?

Applying the formula we have

1/v +1/u= 1/f

Substituting our given data

1/v+1/12=1/24

1/v=1/24-1/12

1/v=1-2/24

1/v=-1/24

v= - 24cm

This implies that the image is on the same side as the object and it is real

3. Does the Sun's light that reaches Earth produce a true continuous rainbow? If not, what colors
dangina [55]

Answer:

when there is no water in the atmosphere or when no drops are formed there is no rainbow..

he hydrogen transition lines would be missing in the visible range,  the RED region

Explanation:

The sunlight that reaches the Earth is scattered by the atmosphere and radiated, as the atmosphere has mainly nitrogen, the radiated light is blue, this light does not produce a rainbow.

The sunlight must reach a drop of water that disperses the colors according to the refractive index of the water and in this way produces a rainbow, so when there is no water in the atmosphere or when no drops are formed there is no rainbow..

If the atmosphere were composed of Hydrogen, the hydrogen transition lines would be missing in the visible range, this corresponds to the so-called Balmer series and they are in the RED light region.

When you used the energy in our body to pull the rubber band, it was transformed into elastic potential energy. We know that ene
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Converted to heat energy

Explanation:

Some of the elastic potential energy is transformed into heat energy. When we stretch a rubber band, it is often observed that the rubber becomes warmer after the stretch and even during the stretch.

Some energy in the band initially at rest will be converted into elastic potential energy and heat energy as it is stretched .

  • The heat energy is not usually accounted for since the major concern most times is the elastic energy.
  • In this process, heat energy becomes a waste energy.
  • By deducing the efficiency, we would find that this transformation is not efficient as predicted by one of the laws of thermodynamics.
