Answer:

0.657 seconds

Explanation:

speed of wave= wavelength / time period

so

time period= wavelength / speed

= 4.6/7

=0.657 sec

6. A garden hose attached to a nozzle is used to fill a 15-gal bucket. The inner diameter of the hose is 1.5 cm, and it reduces

Vesna [10]

Answer: 1.135 L/s; 1.35 kg/s, 22.57 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Volume of bucket $V=15\ gal\approx 56.78\ L$

time to fill it $t=50\ s$

Volume flow rate

$\dot{V}=\dfrac{56.78}{50}=1.135\ L/s\approx 1.135\times 10^{-3}\ m^3/s$

The inner diameter of the hose $D=1.5\ cm$

diameter of the nozzle exit $d=0.8\ cm$

we can volume flow rate as

$\Rightarrow \dot{V}=Av\quad \quad \text{v=average velocity through nozzle exit}\\\\\Rightarrow 1.135\times 10^{-3}=\frac{\pi }{4}d^2\times v\\\\\Rightarrow 1.135\times 10^{-3}=\frac{\pi }{4}(0.8\times 10^{-2})^2\times v\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{4\times 1.135\times 10^{-3}}{\pi \times 64\times 10^{-6}}=22.57\ m/s$

Mass flow rate

$\Rightarrow \dot{m}=\rho \times \dot{V}\\\Rightarrow \dot{m}=1\ kg/L\times 1.135\ L/s=1.35\ kg/s$

The force of attraction between m1 and m2 is 26 N. What will this force become if m2 is tripled?

Nutka1998 [239]

In order to determine the effect, we will first consider the mathematical expression of Newton's law of gravitation:
F = (Gm₁m₂)/r², where G is the gravitational constant, m represents the mass of a body, and r is the separation between the two bodies.
It is visible that the force is directly proportional to the product of the two masses. Therefore, if one mass is kept constant and the other is tripled, the force will also triple. Thus, the force will be:
26 * 3
= 78 Newtons

Hi!

givens: initial velocity = 0 m/s

time = 8.5 s

acceleration = 10 m/s^2

Unknown: displacement, velocity final

Equation:

Displacement = 1/2 (at^2) + viT

SS:

Displacement = 1/2 (10 * 8.5^2) + 0

Displacement = 361.25 m in a positive direction.

My math might be a little off, but I'm not sure...

But yeah! Hope this helped :)
