A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

a) We know that;

v = λf

Where;

λ = wavelength of the wave

f = frequency of the wave

v = velocity of the wave

So;

T = 2 * 2.10 s = 4.2 s

Hence f = 1/4.2 s

f = 0.24 Hz

The wavelength =  6.5 m

Hence;

v = 6.5 m * 0.24 Hz

v = 1.56 m/s

b)The amplitude of the wave is;

A =  0.600 m/2 = 0.300 m

c) Since the wave speed does not depend on the amplitude of the wave then the answer in (a) above remains the same

Where d = 0.30 m

A = 0.30 m/2 = 0.15 m

The y component of a vector is 36, and the angle between the vector and the x axis is 27 what is the magnitude of the vector
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude of Vector = 79.3

Explanation:

When a vector is resolved into its rectangular components, it forms two vector components. These components  are named as x-component and y-component, they are calculated by the following formulae:

x-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Cos θ)

y-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin θ)

where,

θ = angle of the vector with x-axis = 27°

Therefore, using the values in the equation of y-component, we get:

36 = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin 27°)

Magnitude of Vector = 36/Sin 27°

<u>Magnitude of Vector = 79.3</u>

Which statements below are true?
Ilya [14]

The correct statements are that the speed decreases as the distance decreases and speed increases as the distance increases for the same time.

Answer:

Option A and Option B.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the ratio of distance covered to the time taken to cover that distance. So Speed = Distance/Time. In other words, we can also state that speed is directly proportional to the distance for a constant time. Thus, the speed will be decreasing as there is decrease in distance for the same time. As well as there will be increase in speed as the distance increases for the same time. So option A and option B are the true options. So if there is decrease in the distance due to direct proportionality the speed will also be decreasing. Similarly, if the distance increases, the speed will also be increasing.
