Meteor Infrasound A meteor that explodes in the atmosphere creates infrasound waves that can travel multiple times around the gl

obe. One such meteor produced infrasound waves with a wavelength of 6.5 km that propagated 8830 km in 8.47 h. What was the frequency of these waves?

Answer:

0.04455 Hz

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Wavelength, λ = 6.5km = 6500m

Distance travelled by the wave, x = 8830km = 8830000m

Time taken, t = 8.47hours = 8.47 * 3600 = 30492 secs

First, we find the speed of the wave:

Speed, v = distance/time = x/t

v = 8830000/30492 = 289.58 m/s

Frequency, f, is given as velocity divided by wavelength:

f = v/λ

f = 289.58/6500

f = 0.04455 Hz

A fish scale, consisting of a spring with spring constant k=200N/m, is hung vertically from the ceiling. A 2.6 kg fish is attach
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

The fish is initially at rest and it is also at rest when the spring is fully stretched at the maximum distance.

Change in gravity potential energy = change in spring potential energy

mgh = 1/2kh^2

Assume gravity constant g is 10m/s^2

2.6*10*h = 1/2*200*h^2

100h^2 - 26h = 0

2h(50h - 13) = 0

h = 0 or h = 13/50 = 0.65m

h = 0 is before the spring is stretched

So the maximum distance is 0.65m.

What happens when charged object is brought near uncharged object?<br> Attract or Repel ?
Makovka662 [10]
When a charged object is brought near to but does not touch a neutral object, it causes the side of the neutral object that the charged object is near to become the other charge. It causes charge migration within the neutral object so the two charges (positive and negative) move to opposite sides of the object. Because the two objects do not touch, they do not repel each other, but rather have a slight attraction because of charge migration. If the two object were to touch then they would repel.
