A fisherman noticed that a float makes 30 oscillations in 15 seconds. The distance between two consecutive crests is 2 m. What i

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

polet [3.4K]
V o - initial velocity
v = velocity at the maximum height,
v² = v o² - 2 g h
v = 0
0 = v o² - 2 g h
v o² = 2 g h = 2 · 9.80 · 0.460
v o² = 9.052
v o = √9.052 = 3.004197 m/s ≈ 3 m/s

I don't understand any of this please help !

You can see what is the electron configuration by looking at the layout of the periodic tables. the first shell will have a max of 2 electrons on it, once the first one is filled up a second is added with a max of 8 electrons on it and so on with the 8 as a max. so He, and H will only have them on the first shell but every horizontal row is a new valence or outer shell. so lets say for carbon look at the number in the upper left corner of the box will tell you the total number of electrons you will need. so start off with the first two electrons on the first shell. now you know that carbon needs 6 electrons in total, since you can only have a max of 2 on the first shell you need a second one so on the second one you will have to have the remaining 4. now elements are most stable when they have a full valence shell becuase those are the only electrons that will react with others. so if carbon has 4 it wants to either gain or lose 4 electrons so you could say that it would bond with 4H since each H will donate 1 electron to the C valence shell making all the H and C stable.

Is static electricity more harmful than it is helpful or vice versa
Deffense [45]

Answer:

You might even see a spark if the discharge of electrons is large enough. The good news is that static electricity can't seriously harm you. Your body is composed largely of water and water is an inefficient conductor of electricity, especially in amounts this small. Not that electricity can't hurt or kill you.
