Look at the two wave diagrams. Which best describes the difference between wave A and wave B? Wave A has a greater pitch and fre
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Correct answer is Wave A has a greater pitch and frequency

Explanation:

To understand the given figure, we should know the definition of wavelength, frequency and pitch

Wavelength

wavelength is defined as distance between two successive wave crests or troughs.

Frequency

Frequency is defined as the number of waves which passes through a given point per second. SI unit of frequency is Hertz.

Pitch

our ear understand the frequency of a sound wave as pitch. A a lower frequency sound has a lower pitch and a higher frequency sound has a higher pitch.

In given figure Wave A has lower wavelength and higher frequency so it have higher pitch than wave B.

What is the acceleration due to gravity in a region where a simple pendulum having a length 75.000 cm has a period of 1.7357 s?​
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Explanation:

T = 2π\sqrt{L/g}

(T / 2π)² = L/g

g = 4π²L/T²

g = 4π²(0.75000)/(1.7357)²

g = 9.82814766...

g = 9.8281 m/s²

Un hombre parado en el techo de un edificio, tira una bola verticalmente hacia arriba con una velocidad de 12m/s, la bola llega
zmey [24]

Respuesta:

24m

Explicación:

Según la ecuación de movimiento

v = u + en

Dado

Velocidad final v = 12 m / s

velocidad inicial u = 0 m / s

tiempo t = 4s

Sustituir

12 = 0 + 4a

a = 12/4

a = 3 m / s²

Lo siguiente es obtener la distancia;

S = ut + 1 / 2at²

S = 0 (4) + 1/2 (3) (4) ²

S = 3 * 16/2

S = 48/2

S = 24 m

Por lo tanto, la distancia requerida es de 24 m.
