A man is standing on the shore of a beach, up to his knees in water. Every second two waves hit him. What is the frequency of th

Answer:

f = 2 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is defined as the no. of waves passing per unit of time. Therefore, the frequency of a wave can be calculated by the following formula:

f = \frac{n}{t}

where,

f = frequency of the wave = ?

t = time passed = 1 s

n = no. of waves passing in time t = 2

Therefore,

f = \frac{2}{1\ s}

<u>f = 2 Hz</u>

Calculate the weight of a new fast-food sandwich that has a mass of 0.1 kg (approximately the mass of a quarter pound). Think of
iragen [17]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

If you plan to sell these things on Earth, then the acceleration of gravity in the neighborhood of your drive-throughs will be 9.81 m/s².

Weight of each sandwich = (0.1 kg) x (9.81 m/s²).

Weight of each sandwich = 0.981 Newton.

This is only  1.9%  less than 1 even Newton.

You should start by setting up one restaurant in New York, one in Chicago, one in LA, and maybe one in Miami or Tulsa.  Sell it with a different name in each place, and see which name sells best.

You might want to try calling it

-- Isaac's burger

-- Gravity grub

-- Prism Patty

-- Mass 'o Meat

-- Unit-wich

and see if anything catches on.

I think I'd simply call it a "Newton Unit".

An electric dipole consisting of charges of magnitude 1.70 nC separated by 6.80 μm is in an electric field of strength 1160 N/C.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m     and  ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Explanation:

The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance

                        p = 2 a q

With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges

                        p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶

                        p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m

 

The potential energie dipole  is described by the expression

                       U = - p E cos θ

Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line

Orientation parallel to the field

                      θ = 0º

                      U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0

                      U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

Antiparallel orientation

                       θ = 180º

                      cos 180 = -1

                      U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies

                         ΔU = | U1 -U2 |

                         ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)

                         ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

The results of a recent television survey of American TV households revealed that 86 out of every 100 TV households have at leas
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

q = \dfrac{14}{100}

Explanation:

given,

86 out of every 100 TV households have at least one remote control

Probability of any material is calculated by.

Probability = \dfrac{favourable\ outcome}{Total\ outcome}

P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{86}{100}

P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=0.86

now, Calculating probability that at least one remote control

   q = 1 - 0.86

   q = 0.14

P(doesnot\ have\ at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{14}{100}

q = \dfrac{14}{100}
