If an earthquake has a velocity of 41 m/s and a wavelength of 225 meters.

Physics
1 answer:
Tema [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Frequency = 5.49Hz

Explanation:

Given the following data

Velocity = 41m/s

Wavelength = 225m

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

Making frequency the subject of formula, we have;

Frequency = \frac {wavelength}{velocity}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Frequency = \frac {225}{41}

Frequency = 5.49Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the earthquake is 5.49 Hertz.

How does a concave mirror form an image
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The correct option is (c) "it bounces the light towards a focal point"

Explanation:

There are two types of spherical mirrors i.e. concave and convex.

A concave mirror is a type of spherical mirror that is curved inwards. For this type of mirror the rays of light are bounced back and converge to the focal point of the mirror.

So, the correct option is (c).

In the solar panel system presented in the video, which of the following was necessary to generate usable electrical current for
anastassius [24]

Answer:

A and B are both requirements for a solar panel to generate usable current at home.

Explanation:

Solar panel operates through a group of cells, where each one of them captures/convert electrons making them move from one polarised region to another. The excited electrons can move from a region in excess of electrons (p region) to a region with a lack of electrons (n region).  

This physical effect of electron moving from one side to another creates what we know as current flow.

This current flow from a solar panel does not vary with time in a determined frequency, so it's constant. This is the definition of a DC current. Since the household devices work with AC (variable sinusoidal current Alternate Current) a converter DC to AC is required.

Due to the fact that the solar panels only operate in the day when they recibe direct sunlight, there is the need to have batteries to store the energy for the night and the times where the sunlight is not enough to provide enough electron flow.

Is the distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit a discrete
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Continuous random variable

Explanation:

The distance that baseball travels after being hit is a random variable and it assume any real value defined on the sample space.

The distance is measurable and thus is continuous random variable because continuous variable cannot be counted but could be measured.

An archer tests various arrowheads by shooting arrows at a pumpkin that is suspended from a tree branch by a rope, as shown to t
erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.

Given theta = 7pi/6, find (sec theta, cos theta) ...?
uysha [10]
There is an identity of sin(2pi-x) = -sin(x) and cos(2pi-x) = cos(x). This is what we are going to use. 


<span>(7pi/6) = (2pi)-(pi/6)

 </span>
Therefore: 
<span>
1) sec(7pi/6) = 1/cos(2pi-(pi/6)) = 1/cos(pi/6) = 2sqrt(3)/3 
</span>
<span>2) cos(7pi/6) = cos(pi/6) = sqrt(3)/2


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
