Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

The relation between wave period and frequency is as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

where, T = time period

f = frequency

It is given that wave period is 18 seconds. Therefore, calculate the wave period as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

or, f = \frac{1}{T}f=

= \frac{1}{18 sec}

18sec

= 0.055 per second (1cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

or, f = 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz

<h3>Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz .</h3>

The quantity of charge Q in coulombs (C) that has passed through a point in a wire up to time t (measured in seconds) is given b

Mnenie [13.5K]

Explanation:

The quantity of charge Q in coulombs (C) that has passed through a point in a wire up to time t (measured in seconds) is given by :

$Q=t^3-2t^2+4t+4$

We need to find the current flowing. We know that the rate of change of electric charge is called electric current. It is given by :

$I=\dfrac{dQ}{dt}\\\\I=\dfrac{d(t^3-2t^2+4t+4)}{dt}\\\\I=3t^2-4t+4$

At t = 1 s,

Current,

$I=3(1)^2-4(1)+4\\\\I=3\ A$

So, the current at t = 1 s is 3 A.

For lowest current,

$\dfrac{dI}{dt}=0\\\\\dfrac{d(3t^2-4t+4)}{dt}=0\\\\6t-4=0\\\\t=0.67\ s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Glass has a hardness that is in the middle of the hardness scale. What is the hardness of Glass?

sweet [91]

Answer: 5.5

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that hardness is a property that materials have related to the opposition or resistance they offer to alterations such as penetration, abrasion, scratching, cutting, and permanent deformations, among others.

In this context, several hardness scales have been developed to catalog the materials (specifically minerals), being the Mohs scale the best known. This scale, proposed by the German geologist Friedrich Mohs in 1825, consists of a ratio of ten minerals numbered in increasing order by hardness, from least to greatest.

This is how the scale starts at 1 with the talc (considered the softest material) and ends at 10 with the diamond as the hardest.

Now, if we are told that the glass is in the middle of the hardness scale that goes from 1 to 10, logically its value will be 5 (volcanic glass). However, according to the scale, the glass is at 5.5.
