The vibration of the string moves the surrounding air molecules. The air molecules move in the form of a wave, traveling a distance dependent upon the magnitude of the vibration.

A wave with a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.16Hz

Explanation:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one

second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

A plastic film moves over two drums. During a 4-s interval the speed of the tape is increased uniformly from v0 = 2ft/s to v1 =

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Question 1)

a) The speed of the drums is increased from 2 ft/s to 4 ft/s in 4 s. From the below kinematic equations the acceleration of the drums can be determined.

$v_1 = v_0 + at \\4 = 2 + 4a\\a = 0.5~ft/s^2$

This is the linear acceleration of the drums. Since the tape does not slip on the drums, by the rule of rolling without slipping,

$v = \omega R\\a = \alpha R$

where α is the angular acceleration.

In order to continue this question, the radius of the drums should be given.

Let us denote the radius of the drums as R, the angular acceleration of drum B is

α = 0.5/R.

b) The distance travelled by the drums can be found by the following kinematics formula:

$v_1^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax\\4^2 = 2^2 + 2(0.5)x\\x = 12 ft$

One revolution is equal to the circumference of the drum. So, total number of revolutions is

$x / (2\pi R) = 6/(\pi R)$

Question 2)

a) In a rocket propulsion question, the acceleration of the rocket can be found by the following formula:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{13000}{2600}25 = 125~ft/s^2$

b) $a = -\frac{v_{fuel}}{m}\frac{dm}{dt} = - \frac{13000}{400}25 = 812.5~ft/s^2$

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h, you have a(n) ______ acceleration.

Delicious77 [7]

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h then
you have an acceleration.

Whether it's a positive or negative one completely depends
on which direction you decided to call the positive direction,
when you started considering your speed and its changes.

If you decided to call the direction in which you're traveling
the positive direction, then a decrease in your speed is a
negative acceleration.

But you could just as easily have said that you're traveling
in the negative direction. If you did that, then a decrease in
your speed would be a positive acceleration.

It's completely up to you, and how you define things.
