Answer:

The correct solution is option A "10 meters".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Wave X,

Frequency,

$F_x=200 \ H_z$

Wavelength

$\lambda_x=35 \ m$

Wave Y,

Frequency,

$F_y=700 \ Hz$

Let its wavelength = $\lambda_y$

As we know,

⇒ $v=f \lambda$

For both waves, medium is same then

⇒ $v_x=v_y$

⇒ $f_x \lambda_x=f_y \lambda_y$

then,

⇒ $\lambda_y=\frac{f_x \lambda_x}{f_y}$

On substituting the estimated values in the above equation, we get

⇒ $=\frac{200\times 35}{700}$

⇒ $=\frac{7000}{700}$

⇒ $=10 \ m$

Yuri [45]

Answer:

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$

Explanation:

Given data:

L =2.00 *10^4 m

d = 18*10^4 m

M = 18 *10^6 kg

m_1 = 8*10^6 kg

Gravitational energy is given as

$U =- G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r}$

mass per unit length is given as

$\sigma = \frac{M}{L} = \frac{18 \times 10^6}{2\times 10^4 m} = 900 kg/m$

calculating potential energy

$dU ==-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *dm}{r}$

$=-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *\sigma dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma \left | ln r \right |_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma ln(1.125)$

$=-6.673 \times 10^{-11}*8*10^6*900*ln(1.125)$

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$

A hiker begins a trip by first walking 25.0 km southeast from her car. She stops and sets up her tent for the night. On the seco

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

(a)

$x_1=17.68km\\y_1=-17.68km\\x_2=20km\\y_2=34.64km$

(b) $r=41.32km$

$\alpha =24.23^o$

Explanation:

Let us take the north direction to be the positive y-axis and the east to be positive x-axis.

First day:

25.0 km southeast, which implies $45^o$ south of east. The y-component will be negative and the x-component will be positive.

$x_1=25cos45^o=17.68km$

$y_1=-25sin45^o=-17.68km$

Second day:

She starts off at the stopping point of last day. This time, both the y- and x-components are positive.

$x_2=40cos60^o=20km$

$y_2=40sin60^o=34.64km$

Therefore, total displacements:

$x=x_1+x_2=(17.68+20)km=37.68km$

$y=y_1+y_2=(-17.68+34.64)km=16.96km$

Magnitude of displacements,

$r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=41.32km$

Direction,

$\alpha =tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})=24.23^o$

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?

Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

$R=A=B$

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

$R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°$

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!
