Two boats - Boat A and Boat B - are anchored a distance of 24 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillat

e up and down, making one complete cycle every 10 seconds. When Boat A is at its peak, Boat B is at its low point and there is a crest in between the two boats. The vertical distance between Boat A and Boat B at their extreme is 8 meters. The wavelength is ___ m, the period is ___ s, the frequency is ___ Hz, and the amplitude is ___ m.

Answer:

wavelength = 24 m

Period = 10 s

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude = 4 m

Explanation:

Wavelength:

Since the boats are at crest and trough, respectively at the same time. Hence, the horizontal distance between them is the wavelength of the wave:

<u>wavelength = 24 m</u>  

Period:

The period is given as:

Period = \frac{time}{no.\ of\ cycles} \\\\Period = \frac{10\ s}{1}\\\\

<u>Period = 10 s</u>

<u></u>

Frequency:

The frequency is given as:

f = \frac{1}{time\ period}\\\\f = \frac{1}{10\ s}\\\\

<u>f = 0.1 Hz</u>

<u></u>

Amplitude:

Amplitude will be half the distance between extreme points, that is, crest and trough:

Amplitude = 8 m/2

<u>Amplitude = 4 m</u>

A bicyclist of mass 60kg supplies 340W of power while riding into a 5 m/s head wind. The frontal area of the cyclist and bicycle
NikAS [45]

Answer:

87.1 mph

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,m=60 kg

Power,P=340 W

Speed,v=5 m/s

Area,A=0.344 m^2

Drag coefficient,C_d=0.88

Coefficient of rolling resistance,\mu_r=0.007

Friction force,f=\mu_rmg=0.007\times 60\times 9.8=4.1 N

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Let speed of cyclist=v'

Drag force,F_d=\frac{1}{2}\rho_{air}AC_dv^2

Density of air,\rho_{air}=1.225 kg/m^3

F_d=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.225\times 0.344\times 0.88(5)^2=4.635N

Power,P=(F_d+f)\times v'

340=(4.1+4.635) v'=8.735v'

v'=\frac{340}{8.735}=38.9m/s

v'=87.1 mph

1 m=0.00062137 miles

The inner conductor of a coaxial cable has a radius of 0.800 mm, and the outer conductor’s inside radius is 3.00 mm. The space b
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The maximum potential difference is 186.02 x 10¹⁵ V

Explanation:

formula for calculating maximum potential difference

V = \frac{2K_e \lambda}{k}ln(\frac{b}{a})

where;

Ke is coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/c²

k is the dielectric constant = 2.3

b is the outer radius of the conductor = 3 mm

a is the inner radius of the conductor = 0.8 mm

λ is the linear charge density = 18 x 10⁶ V/m

Substitute in these values in the above equation;

V = \frac{2K_e \lambda}{k}ln(\frac{b}{a}) =  \frac{2*8.99*10^9*18*10^6 }{2.3}ln(\frac{3}{0.8}) =140.71 *10^{15} *1.322 \\\\V= 186.02 *10^{15} \ V

Therefore, the maximum potential difference this cable can withstand is 186.02 x 10¹⁵ V

6) If a mass of an object is decreased to half and acting force is reduced by quarter the acceleration of its motion
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Decreases to half.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial mass (m₁) = m

Initial force (F₁) = F

Initial acceleration (a₁) =?

Final mass (m₂) = ½m

Final force (F₂) = ¼F

Final acceleration (a₂) =?

Next, we shall determine a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

F₁ = m₁a₁

F = ma₁

Divide both side by m

a₁ = F / m

Next, we shall determine a₂.

F₂ = m₂a₂

¼F = ½ma₂

2F = 4ma₂

Divide both side by 4m

a₂ = 2F / 4m

a₂ = F / 2m

Finally, we shall determine the ratio of a₂ to a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

a₁ = F / m

a₂ = F / 2m

a₂ : a₁ = a₂ / a₁

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m ÷ F/m

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m × m/F

a₂ / a₁ = ½

Cross multiply

a₂ = ½a₁

From the illustrations made above, the acceleration of the car will decrease to half the original acceleration
