Answer: 60m/s

Explanation:

The wavespeed is the distance covered by the wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V

Wavespeed (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

i.e V = F λ

In the first case:

Wavespeed = 30 m/s

Frequency of sound = 6Hz

Wavelength = 5m

In the second case:

Wavespeed = ?

Frequency of sound = (2x 6Hz = 12Hz)

Wavelength = 5m (remains constant)

Apply V = F λ

Wavespeed = 12 Hz x 5m

Wavespeed = 60m/s

Therefore, when frequency is doubled, the speed is also doubled. Thus, the new speed of the wave is 60m/s

A hockey puck oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal track while attached to a horizontal spring. The puck has mass 0.160 kg a
marshall27 [118]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     mass (m) = 0.160 kg,            spring constant (k) = 8 n/m,

     Maximum speed (v_{m}) = 0.350 m/s

Formula for angular frequency is as follows.

          \omega = \sqrt{\frac{{k}{m}}

    \omega = \sqrt{\frac{{8}{0.160}}

    \omega = 7.07 rad/sec

(a) Formula to calculate the amplitude is as follows.

            \nu_{max} = A \omega

                  A = \frac{\nu}{\omega}

                      = \frac{0.35}{7.07}

                      = 0.05 m

Hence, value of amplitude is 0.05 m.

(b)   Displacement = 0.030 m

Formula for mechanical energy is as follows.

            M.E = \frac{1}{2}kA^{2}

Putting the values into the above formula as follows.

            M.E = \frac{1}{2}kA^{2}

                   = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times (0.05)^{2}

                   = 9.8 \times 10^{-3} Joule

For x = 0.03,

As,     P.E = \frac{1}{2} \times kx^{2}

                = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times (0.03)

                = 3.6 \times 10^{-3}

Hence, calculate the kinetic energy as follows.

            K.E = M.E - P.E

                  = (9.8 \times 10^{-3} - 3.6 \times 10^{-3}) J

                  = 6.2 \times 10^{-3} J

Thus, we can conclude that kinetic energy of the puck when the displacement of the glider is 0.0300 m is 6.2 \times 10^{-3} J.

Explain how the magnitude of the gravitational force between the earth and the sun changes as the earth moves from position 'A'
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told where A and B are, but I'll assume that they are two points on the orbit of earth about the sun.

As that orbit is an ellipse, the two points likely do not have the same distance between the earth and sun.

As gravity varies with the inverse of the square of the distance (F = GMm/d²), the force at the closer distance will be greater than the force at the longer distance.
