If a sound wave travels 680 m in 2 seconds and has a frequency of 400 hz, what is the wavelength of the wave?

Physics

Kipish [7]3 years ago

Answer: 0.85 meters (with and without sigfigs)

Explanation: To find the wavelength, you just have to switch around the equation for wave speed: v (wave speed) = λ (wavelength)*f (frequency) so λ (wavelength) = v (wave speed)/f (frequency). You don't have the wave speed but you can calculate it. Since wave speed is measured in meters/second or m/s, you just have to divide the amount of meters you were given by the amount of seconds. You will get 340 m/s. Next, you have to plug the values into the equation: λ (wavelength) = 340 m/s (wave speed)/400 Hz (frequency). The answer is 0.85 meters (seconds cancel) and has the correct number of significant figures.

A driver in a car traveling at a speed of 21.8m/s sees a cat 101 m away on the road. How long will it take for the car to accele
kobusy [5.1K]
The acceleration of the car will be needed in order to calculate the time. It is important to consider that the final speed is equal to zero:

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ad\ \to\ a = \frac{-v_0^2}{2d} = -\frac{21.8^2\ m^2/s^2}{2\cdot 99\ m} = -2.4\frac{m}{s^2}

We can clear time in the speed equation:

v = v_0 + at\ \to\ t = \frac{-v_0}{a} = \frac{-21.8\ m/s}{-2.4\ m/s^2} = \bf 9.08\ s

If you find some mistake in my English, please tell me know.

3. A pendulum with a 1.0-kg weight is set in motion from a position 0.04 m above the lowest point on the path of the weight.
gavmur [86]

Answer: K.E = 0.4 J

Explanation:

Given that:

M = 1.0 kg

h = 0.04 m

K.E = ?

According to conservative of energy

K.E = P.E

K.E = mgh

K.E = 1 × 9.81 × 0.04

K.E = 0.3924 Joule

The kinetic energy of the pendulum at the lowest point is 0.39 Joule
