What do microwaves have in common with light waves?

A sinusoidal sound wave moves through a medium and is described by the displacement wave function

ZanzabumX [31]

By applying the wave equation we know that the maximum speed of the element's oscillatory motion is 1716 micrometer / s.

We need to know about wave equations to solve this problem. The displacement of the wave on the y-axis can be explained by the wave equation

y = A cos (kx - ωt)

where y is y-axis displacement, A is amplitude, k is wave number, x is x-axis displacement, ω is angular speed and t is time.

the wavenumber and angular speed of the wave equation can be determined respectively by

k = 2π / λ

ω = 2πf

where k is the wavenumber, λ is wavelength and f is frequency.

From the question above, we know that:

y = 2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)

v = dy / dt

v = d(2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)) / dt

v = -858 x (-2.00sin(15.7x - 858t))

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t) micrometer/s

maximum velocity can be reached when (sinθ = 1), hence

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t)

v = 1716 x 1

v = 1716 micrometer / s

A car moves round a circular track of radius 0.3m of two revolution per/sec find its angular velocity.

Pie

Answer:

the angular velocity of the car is 12.568 rad/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular track, r = 0.3 m

number of revolutions per second made by the car, ω = 2 rev/s

The angular velocity of the car in radian per second is calculated as;

From the given data, we convert the angular velocity in revolution per second to radian per second.

$\omega = 2 \ \frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = 4\pi \ rad/s = 12.568 \ rad/s$

Therefore, the angular velocity of the car is 12.568 rad/s.

What are the differences and relationships between speed, velocity, and acceleration

melamori03 [73]

Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, whereas acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Both are vector quantities (and so also have a specified direction), but the units of velocity are meters per second while the units of acceleration are meters per second squared.

aivan3 [116]

<span>A van is traveling on a road at a speed of 55 km/h relative to a
stationary observer on the side of the road. A girl sitting near the
driver of the van throws a paper airplane to a boy at the back of the
van with a speed of 2 km/h relative to the girl, the boy, and the van.

The speed of the paper airplane, relative to the same stationary observer
on the side of the road, is (55 - 2) = 53 km/h. No rounding is necessary.</span>
