The distance from the peak to a peak of a successive wave.

Physics
1 answer:
ad-work [718]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the horizontal distance between the peaks of successive troughs or crests of a wave. Wavelength is measured in meters and when you have the wavelength you can also calculate the frequency when velocity of the waves are known since velocity of wave is given as the product of wavelength and frequency. Conclusively, the distance as described from peak to peak of successive wave is termed as wavelength

A series circuit is composed of two resistors:
WITCHER [35]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.3 Amps

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

A circuit with resistors, R1 and R2

R1 = 7 Ω

R2 = 11 Ω

Voltage = 24 V

We are required to calculate the current in the circuit.

<h3>Step 1: We need to find the effective resistance.</h3>

When resistors are arranged in series, the effective resistance is calculated by;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ..........Rₙ

Therefore;

Total resistance = 7 + 11

                          = 18 Ω

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the current in the circuit</h3>

From the ohm's law;

V = IR

Rearranging the formula;

I = V/R

Thus;

I = 24 V ÷ 18 Ω

 = 1.333 Amps

= 1.3 Amps

Thus, the current in the circuit is 1.3 Amps

The maximum speed with which you can throw a stone is about 20 m/s. Can you hit a window 45 m away horizontally and 10 m up from
Allushta [10]

Answer:

 y = 17 m

Explanation:

For this projectile launch exercise, let's write the equation of position

          x = v₀ₓ t

          y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

let's substitute

          45 = v₀ cos θ t

          10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

the maximum height the ball can reach where the vertical velocity is zero

 

           v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

Let's write our system of equations

         45 = v₀ cos θ  t

         10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

         0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which it can be solved.

Let's use the last two

        v₀ sin θ = 9.8 t

we substitute

        10 = (9.8 t) t - ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = 4.9 t2

        t = √ (10 / 4.9)

        t = 1,429 s

Now let's use the first equation and the last one

         45 = v₀ cos θ t

         0  = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

         9.8 t = v₀  sin θ

         45 / t = v₀ cos θ

we divide

         9.8t / (45 / t) = tan θ

          tan θ = 9.8 t² / 45

          θ = tan⁻¹ ( 9.8 t² / 45 )

          θ = tan⁻¹ (0.4447)

          θ = 24º

Now we can calculate the maximum height

         v_y² = v_{oy}^2 - 2 g y

         vy = 0

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 24)²/2 9.8

          y = 3,376 m

the other angle that gives the same result is

       θ‘= 90 - θ

       θ' = 90 -24

       θ'= 66'

for this angle the maximum height is

 

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 66)²/2 9.8

           y = 17 m

thisis the correct
