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. :)

Rama09 [41]

Answer: People are not affected by the gravitational force of cars and buildings because their masses are too small to exert a strong enough force for people to feel.

Explanation: The weak gravitational forces of cars and buildings are insignificant compared to the gravitational force of Earth.

Two point charges of -7uC and 4uC are a distance of 20

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Approximately 0.979 J.

Explanation:

Assume that the two charges are in vacuum. Apply the coulomb's law to find their initial and final electrical potential energy $\mathrm{EPE}$ .

$\displaystyle \mathrm{EPE} = \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r}$ ,

where

The coulomb's constant $k = 8.99\times 10^{9}\; \rm N\cdot m^{2} \cdot C^{-2}$ ,
$q_1$ and $q_2$ are the sizes of the two charges, and
$r$ is the separation of (the center of) the two charges.

Note that there's no negative sign before the fraction.

Make sure that all values are in SI units:

$q_1 = -7\rm \;\mu C = -7\times 10^{-6}\; C$ ;
$q_2 = 4\rm \;\mu C = 4\times 10^{-6}\; C$ ;

Initial separation: $\rm 20\; cm = 0.20\; cm$ ;
Final separation: $\rm 90\; cm = 0.90\; cm$ .

Apply Coulomb's law:

Initial potential energy:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r} &= \frac{8.99\times 10^{9}\times (-7\times 10^{-6})\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{0.20}\\&= \rm -1.2586\; J\end{aligned}$ .

Final potential energy:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{k \cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r} &= \frac{8.99\times 10^{9}\times (-7\times 10^{-6})\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{0.90}\\&= \rm -0.279689\; J\end{aligned}$ .

The final potential energy is less negative than the initial one. In other words, the two particles gain energy in this process. The energy difference (final minus initial) will be equal to the work required to move them at a constant speed.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Work required} &= \text{Final EPE} - \text{Initial EPE}\\&= \rm -0.279689\; J - (-1.2586\; J)\\&\approx 0.979\; J\end{aligned}$ .

How long does it take a person to skate the width of a hockey rink (85 feet) at a constant speed of 15 feet per second?

Zepler [3.9K]

S(travel distance)=85 ft
v (velocity)=15 ft/s
-----------------------------------
t (time)=?

Calculate the time with the formula for the velocity:
v=S/t
t=S/v
t=85 ft/(15 ft/s)
t=5.666s
