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

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.

What is the average acceleration of the particle between 0 seconds and 4 seconds? A. 0 meters/second2 B. 0.04 meters/second2 C.
lisov135 [29]

Answer

D. 0.25 meters/second2

Explanation

The average acceleration is the ratio of change in velocity to the change in time of travel.Taking in this case that the change of velocity is a unit, then Average acceleration is given by;

Aacc=Vf-Vi/Tf-Ti

where Vf=final velocity,Vi=initial velocity' Tf=final time, Ti=initial time

Vf-Vi=1m/s

Tf-Ti=4-0=4seconds

Avacc=1/4=0.25m/s2

Which of the following is an implication of the law of inertia?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.

Say you rolled a ball on the ground, eventually it will stop because of friction and gravity
