A sound wave travels in air toward the surface of a freshwater lake and enters into the water. The frequency of the sound does n

ot change when the sound enters the water. The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air, and the temperature of both the air and the water is 20 degrees C. What is the wavelength in the water

7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of sound in air at 20⁰C is 343 m /s

velocity of sound in water at 20⁰C is 1481 m /s

The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air so its frequency

= 343 / 2.86 = 119.93 .

This frequency of  119.93 will remain unchanged in water .

wavelength in water = velocity in water / frequency

= 1481 / 119.93

= 12. 35 m .

Net force of 8.0 N acts on an 18 kg body for one minute. Determine the impulse due to the force.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

p = FΔt = 8.0 N(60 s) = 480 N•s

Explanation:

not asked for, but in that time a frictionless 18 kg mass on a horizontal surface will have change velocity by 480/18 = 26.7 m/s.

An impulse results in a change of momentum.

2. A 20 cm object is placed 10cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 5cm. Calculate
adoni [48]

Answer:

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Image</u><u> </u><u>distance</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  +  \frac{1}{u} =  \frac{1}{f}  }} \\

  • v is image distance
  • u is object distance, u is 10 cm
  • f is focal length, f is 5 cm

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} +  \frac{1}{10} =  \frac{1}{5}   }} \\  \\  { \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  =  \frac{1}{10} }} \\  \\ { \tt{v = 10}} \\  \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: image \: distance \: is \: 10 \: cm \:  \: }}}}}

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Magnification</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

• Let's derive this formula from the lens formula:

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  +  \frac{1}{u} =  \frac{1}{f}  }} \\

» Multiply throughout by fv

{ \tt{fv( \frac{1}{v} +  \frac{1}{u} ) = fv( \frac{1}{f}  )}} \\   \\ { \tt{ \frac{fv}{v}  +  \frac{fv}{u}  =  \frac{fv}{f} }} \\  \\  { \tt{f + f( \frac{v}{u} ) = v}}

• But we know that, v/u is M

{ \tt{f + fM = v}} \\  { \tt{f(1 +M) = v }} \\ { \tt{1 +M =  \frac{v}{f}  }} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \mathfrak{formular :  } \: { \tt{ M =  \frac{v}{f}  - 1 }}}}

  • v is image distance, v is 10 cm
  • f is focal length, f is 5 cm
  • M is magnification.

{ \tt{M =  \frac{10}{5} - 1 }} \\  \\ { \tt{M = 5 - 1}} \\  \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: magnification \: is \: 4}}}}}

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Nature</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>Image</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • Image is magnified
  • Image is erect or upright
  • Image is inverted
  • Image distance is identical to object distance.

What is the speed of a truck traveling 10km in 10 minutes
user100 [1]

Answer: 58.8235 km/h

speed = distance/time

the distance is 10 km

the time is 10 minutes

the unit is not correct, so we first change minute to hour

so 10/60 is 0.166667, rounded to 0.17.

10 km/ 0.17 hours =

A 50.0-kg block is being pulled up a 16.0° slope by a force of 250 n that is parallel to the slope. the coefficient of kinetic
Drupady [299]
When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
           Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
          250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
          a = 2.84 m/s²
