What affect, if any, does increasing the speed of the plunger have on the wavelength of the waves

1 answer:

6 0

As the speed of the plunger increases, the wavelength of the waves decreases. The greater the frequency, the smaller the wavelength. The smaller the frequency, the greater the wavelength. When we increase the speed of the plunger, the frequency of the waves also increases, and just like with the size of the ball, it’s the speed of the plunger and the frequency of the waves are directly related.

What is the Kinetic Energy of a 60 kg person on skis traveling 20 m/s?

sattari [20]

Explanation:

equating the parameters into the formula, it's gonna be

= ½ × 60 × 20²

= ½ × 60 × 400

= ½ × 24000

K.E = 12000J

a trampoline launches a 50kg person 2m into the air. if the springs push with 1960N of force, how much displacement was there in

Lina20 [59]

Answer: 0.5 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the person is $m=50\ kg$

Trampoline launches the person into the air up to height of $h=2\ m$

Force experience by springs is $F=1960\ N$

Here, the work done on displacing the springs is equivalent to the Potential energy acquired by the person i.e.

$\Rightarrow F\cdot x=mgh\quad [\text{x=displacement of the trampoline}]\\\\\text{Insert the values}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{50\times 9.8\times 2}{1960}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{980}{1960}\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.5\ m$

-What can you say about the snowboarder’s kinetic energy as he moves?

Damm [24]

Answer:

His kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is a constant at any instant before he comes to rest.

Explanation:

Snowboarder is starting from a height and moving to the down direction. As he moves down his velocity increases, we know that kinetic energy is given by the expression $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ , so as he moves his kinetic energy increases.

When the snowboarder is starting his potential energy is maximum(Potential energy = mgh), as he comes down his potential energy decreases.

Based on this we can conclude that the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy is a constant at any instant for a snowboarder before he comes to rest.

mgh+ $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ = Constant
