Answer:

v = 9.34 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between crests, \lambda=14\ m

The vertical distance from trough to crest = 3.6 m

Time taken, t = 1.5 s

The amplitude of wave = vertical distance from trough to crest /2

= 3.6/2

= 1.8 m

The speed of the wave is given by :

v=f\times \lambda\\\\=\dfrac{\lambda}{T}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{1.5}\\\\=9.34\ m/s

So, the speed of the wave is 9.34 m/s.

Question 13 of 20
Dominik [7]

Answer:

B. It has a central nucleus composed of 29 protons and 35 neutrons,

surrounded by an electron cloud containing 29 electrons.

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons are the only subatomic particles with mass, and they are located in the nucleus. If this atom has an atomic number of 29 and is copper, it must have 29 protons (protons define which element is being observed). This means all remaining mass is from neutrons. 64-29 = 35.

Electrons have no mass and orbit the nucleus in the electron cloud. Since this copper atom is neutral (we are not told it has a charge), there must be an equal number of protons and electrons.

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs
