Answer:

Period T = 0.5 s

Frequency F = 2 Hz

Wave speed V = 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the

Number of oscillations = 30

Time taken = 15 seconds

The distance between two consecutive crests is called wavelength

Wavelength = 2m

Period is the ratio of time and the number of oscillations

Period T = 15/30 = 0.5 seconds

Frequency F is the reciprocal of period. That is,

F = 1/T

F = 1/0.5 = 2Hz

Wave speed V is the product of frequency and wavelength

V = 2 × 2 = 4m/s

Gala2k [10]

Option C

Both technicians are correct

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

HVAC persists for Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Its design in a vehicle is to cleanse, cool, flame, control, and dehumidify the air accessing the cabin, depending on the inputs of the operator as thoroughly as electronic sensors. Various systems will practice diverse ways of regulating airflow into the cabin but all act on identical basic principles.

The automatic systems are electric systems that want different inputs from sensors that intimate climate circumstances to obtain the aspired temperature. Vacuum actuators and/or electric motors control the air doors/valves in these systems.

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V0 and gains a speed v0. If it were accelerated instead through

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The speed is $\sqrt{2}v_{0}$ .

(a) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference $V= V_{0}$

Speed $v = v_{o}$

If it were accelerated instead

Potential difference $V'=2V_{0}$

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of initial work done on proton

$W = q V$

We know that,

$\Delta W=\Delta K.E$

$q V=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Put the value into the formula

$q V_{0}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2$

$v_{0}^2=\dfrac{2qV_{0}}{m}$ ....(I)

If it were accelerated instead through a potential difference of $2 V_{0}$ , then it would gain a speed will be given as :

Using an above formula,

$v_{0}'^2=\dfrac{2qV_{0}}{m}$

Put the value of $V_{0}$

$v_{0}'^2=\dfrac{2q\times2V_{0}}{m}$

$v_{0}'=\sqrt{\dfrac{4qV_{0}}{m}}$

$v_{0}'=\sqrt{2}v_{0}$

Hence, The speed is $\sqrt{2}v_{0}$ .

CHEGG 42 mT magnetic field points due west. If a proton of kinetic energy 9 x 10-12 J enters this field in an upward direction,

alexdok [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the Force is $F = 697 *10^{-15}N$ and the direction is South

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnetic field point due west and since East point toward the positive x -axis $(i)$ then this magnetic field would be mathematically represented as

$\= B = 42(-i)mT = 42*10^{-3} (-i) T$

Now from the question we are told that the kinetic energy is

$KE = 9*10^{-12}J$

Now this kinetic energy can be mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where m is the mass of proton which has a general value of

$m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg$

Now making the subject of the formula

$v = \sqrt{\frac{KE}{0.5 * m} }$

Substituting values we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{9*10^{-12}}{0.5 * 1.67*10^{-27}} }$

$= 10.37*10^7m/s$

Now from the question we are told that proton is moving upward which is in the positive z direction so the velocity of the proton would be in the positive

So the velocity would be

$\= v = 10.37*10^{7} \r k \ m/s$

Now the magnetic Force can be mathematically represented as

$\= F = q \= v * \= B$

Where q is the charge on the proton which has a general value of $q =1.6*10^{-19}C$

Now substituting the value

$\= F = 1.6*10^{-19 } * (10.37 *10^7) \r k * (42 *10^{-3})(-i)$

$= 697*10^{-15} J$

Now according to Fleming's left hand rule the direction of the magnetic force is south toward the negative Y - direction $(-j)$

So the force can be denoted as

$\= F = 697*10^{-15}(-j) N$
