Answer:

Speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that, tapping the surface of a pan of water generates 17.5 waves per second.

We know that the number of waves per second is called the frequency of a wave.

So, f = 17.5 Hz

Wavelength of each wave, \lambda=45\ cm=0.45\ m

Speed of the wave is given by :

v=f\lambda

v=17.5\times 0.45

v = 7.87 m/s

So, the speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

In most circumstances, the normal force acting on an objectand
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Normal Force is usually perpendicular to the movement and static friction usually means that there is no movement.

Explanation:

The work donde by any force on an object is equal to the displacement of the object multiplied by the component of the force that is in the direction of the displacement.

Normal force is usually perpendicular to the movement, so there is no component in the direction of the displacement. This is why it is zero in most circumstances.

<em>Static</em> friction on the other hand, usually means that there is no movement at all (it's static). It means that there is no displacement between the object and ground (in most cases). If there is no displacement, there is no work.

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 7.0 nC. Using insulatin
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.
