Answer: 3 radians/meter.

Explanation:

The general sinusoidal function will be something like:

y = A*sin(k*x - ω*t) + C

Where:

A is the amplitude.

k is the wave number.

x is the spatial variable

ω is the angular frequency

t is the time variable.

C is the mid-value.

The rule that we can use to solve this problem, is that the argument of the sin( ) function must be in radians (or in degrees)

Then if x is in meters, the wave-number must be in radians/meters, so when these numbers multiply the "meters" part is canceled.

Then for the case of the function:

y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Where x is in meters, the units of the wave number (the 3) must be in radians/meters. Then the angular wave number is 3 radians/meter.

An elephant pushes with 200 N on a load of trees. it then pushes these trees for 10 N. How much work did the elephant do?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

the answer is 2000Nm

Explanation:

wprk done = force × distance moved

w.d = 200N × 10m

w.d = 2000Nm

Light from a fluorescent lamp is observed through a cloud of cool nitrogen gas. Again, two students are having a discussion abou
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

From the previous explanation Student No. 1 has the correct explanation

Explanation:

When the fluorescent lamp emits a light it has the shape of its emission spectrum, this light collides with the atoms of Nitrogen and excites it, so these wavelengths disappear, lacking in the spectrum seen by the observed, for which we would see an absorption spectrum

The nitrogen that was exited after a short time is given away in its emission lines, in general there are many lines, so the excitation energy is divided between the different emission lines, which must be weak

From the previous explanation Student No. 1 has the correct explanation

What is the oxidation number of the element Se
maria [59]

Answer:

The oxidation number of a monatomic (composed of one atom) ion is the same as the charge of the ion. For example, the oxidation numbers of K+, Se2−, and Au3+ are +1, -2, and +3, respectively. The oxidation number of oxygen in most compounds is −2.
