The wave travels at the speed of sound in water: v=1500 m/s.

The frequency of the wave is 
10 ms^{-1} = 10000 s^{-1} = 10000 Hz

so we can find its wavelength \lambda by using the basic relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed of the wave:
\lambda= \frac{v}{f}= \frac{1500 m/s}{10000 Hz}=0.150 m = 15 cm

Which of the fluids below would produce the highest pressure at the bottom of a tank for the same fluid depth?
marishachu [46]
The answer is  a property of density. The higher the density, the higher the pressure at the bottom. 

Pressure = mass / Area. So given that the 4 samples occupy the same area at the bottom, the mass is going to be the determining factor. Per given volume, mercury has the largest mass. The answer is A

the video identifies the force pair produced when an apple falls through the air. which force belongs in a free-body diagram of
trapecia [35]

The free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

When an object falls from up to the ground, the object falls under in the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

The vertical component of the force on the apple as it falls trough the air is given as;

∑Fy = 0

Fₙ - W = 0

Fₙ = W

where;

  • <em>Fₙ is the frictional force on the apple acting upwards</em>
  • <em>W is the weight of the apple acting downwards</em>

The free-body diagram of the apple is represented as follows;

                                         ↑ Fₙ

                                         Ο

                                         ↓ W

Thus, the free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

Zoe is shown two mystery boxes that are both 8,000cm3. Her teacher tells her that one mystery box is filled with rocks and the o
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The box of rocks will have depression which can be seen without touching the box.

Explanation:

The density of rocks is very large as compared with napkins. So, the weight of the rocks will be much more greater than that of napkins.

As both boxes have same volume the heavier box will show depression on the lower surface as compared to the lighter box. So, the box of rocks will have depression which can be seen without touching the box.

Two equal point charges QQQ are separated by a distance ddd. One of the charges is released and moves away from the other due on
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The kinetic energy K of the moving charge is K = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd

Explanation:

The potential energy due to two charges q₁ and q₂ at a distance d from each other is given by U = kq₁q₂/r.

Now, for the two charges q₁ = q₂ = Q separated by a distance d, the initial potential energy is U₁ = kQ²/d. The initial kinetic energy of the system K₁ = 0 since there is no motion of the charges initially. When the moving charge is at a distance of r = 3d, the potential energy of the system is U₂ = kQ²/3d and the kinetic energy is K₂.

From the law of conservation of energy, U₁ + K₁ = U₂ + K₂

So, kQ²/d + 0 = kQ²/3d + K

K₂ = kQ²/d - kQ²/3d = 2kQ²/3d

So, the kinetic energy K₂ of the moving charge is K₂ = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd

A body of mass 5.0 kg is suspended by a spring which stretches 10 cm when the mass is attached. It is then displaced downward an
Dominik [7]

Answer:

position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

Explanation:

given data

mass = 5 kg

length = 10 cm = 0.1 m

displaced = 5 cm

to find out

position as a function of time

solution

we will apply here equilibrium that is

mass × g = k × length

put here value and find k

k = \frac{5*9.8}{.01}

k = 490 N/m

and ω is

ω = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

ω = \sqrt{\frac{490}{5} }

ω = 9.9

so here position w.r.t  time is

y = 0.05 × cosωt

y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

so position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t
