What is the number of waves that pass a fixed ping in a given amount of time?

1 answer:

7 0

The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time is wave frequency. Wave frequency can be measured by counting the number of crests (high points) of waves that pass the fixed point in 1 second or some other time period. The higher the number is, the greater the frequency of the waves. :)

When two forces are acting a body in opposite direction their resultant become 6N and when they are acting in the same direction

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

9 and 3 N

Explanation:

Forces in the same direction sum up to produce the resultant force;

One force subtract the other will give the resultant force when they are in opposite directions;

Lets say one direction is forwards and the opposite backwards;

We have one force, let's say force A, in the forwards direction and another force, force B, acting in the same (forwards) or opposite (backwards) direction;

If B is acting in the same direction, then the resultant force (in this case) will be as follows:

A + B = 12

If B is acting in the opposite direction, then the resultant force will be as follows:
A - B = 6

Summing the two equations will allow us to solve for A:

A + B + (A - B) = 12 + 6

2A = 18

A = 9

Substitute this into either of the above equations and we can solve for B:
(9) - B = 6

B = 9 - 6

B = 3

A 94.7 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.75 r

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The angular velocity of the platform is 1.114 rad/s.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of the horizontal circular platform = 94.7 kg

Mass of the monkey = 21.1 kg

Initial angular velocity = 1.75 rad/s

A monkey drops a 9.25 kg bunch of bananas

They hit the platform at 4/5 of its radius from the center

Model the platform as a disk of radius 1.63 m

Step 2: Calculate the moment of inertia of the disk

I = ½ * m * r² = ½ * 94.7 * 1.63² = 125.80

Step 3: Calculate the initial angular momentum

I = 125.80 * 1.75 = 220.15

Step 4: Calculate the moment of inertia for the bananas

For the bananas, r = 4/5 * 1.63 = 1.304 m

I = 9.25 * 1.304² = 15.73

Step 5: Calculate Moment of inertia for the monkey

I = 21.1 * 1.63² = 56.06

Step 6: Total moment of inertia = 125.80 + 15.73 + 56.06 = 197.59

Step 7: Calculate final angular momentum = 197.59 * ω

197.59 * ω = 220.15

ω = 220.15 / 197.59

This is approximately 1.114 rad/s.

When is a hypothesis formed in the process of conducting an experiment?

tangare [24]

Because you need to have a guess to know what to argue or explain in your experiment

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration
