Answer:

1.67m

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength of the wave = 3m

Speed of the wave = 5m/s

Unknown:

Frequency of the wave = ?

Speed of the water waves = ?

Solution:

The distance between crest and the adjacent trough of water waves is known as the wavelength of a wave.

To find the frequency ;

V = f∧

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

Insert the parameters and find the frequency;

f = V/ ∧ = 5 / 3 = 1.67Hz

The rate at which the wave passed a given point is the speed of the wave and it is 5m/s

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its

max2010maxim [7]

The resistance of a conductor is given by
$R= \frac{\rho L}{A}$
where L is the length of the wire, $\rho$ the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: $L'=4 L$ , then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
$R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4 \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R$

Collect information about working of Geyser and prepare a report

ikadub [295]

A geyser is actually a devise that coverts electrical energy into heat energy for heating up water. The heating element that is inside the geyser actually gets heated up and then in turn it heats the water in contact with it within the geyser. There is also a thermostat device within the geyser that cuts off the heating when the water temperature reaches the desired level. This helps in stopping of electrical energy loss. One inlet brings in cold water while another outlet gets rid of the hot water. When the temperature of the water falls below the desired level the heating is again started by the thermostat.

An object with a mass of 5kg accelerates at 2m/s2. How much force in Newtons(N) is needed to cause this to happen??

Reptile [31]

Answer: The formula of Newtons second law of motion is F=MA so therefore it would be written like this Force = Mass X Acceleration

F = 5 x 2

F = 10 N

This sphere contains all of the frozen water on Earth

erica [24]

Cryosphere is the sphere that contains all of the frozen water on Earth. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or the last option. Cryosphere is actually those parts of the surface of the earth where the water is in a frozen state, like in seas and oceans.

A battery with an emf of 24.0 V is connected to a resistive load. If the terminal voltage of the battery is 16.1 V and the curre

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

2.03 Ω

Explanation:

EMF: This can be defined as the potential difference of a cell when it is not delivering any current. The S.I unit of Emf is Volt.

The formula of emf is given as,

E = I(R+r)............................ Equation 1

Where E = Emf, I = current, R = External resistance, r = internal resistance.

Make r the subject of the equation

r = (E-IR)/I........................ Equation 2

Note: From ohm's law, V = IR.

r = (E-V)/I........................ Equation 3

Where V = Terminal voltage

Given: E = 24 V, I = 3.9 A, V = 16.1 V.

Substitute into equation 3

r = (24-16.1)/3.9

r = 7.9/3.9

r = 2.03 Ω
