The period of a wave is 20 ms (milliseconds) and its wavelength is 4 cm. Calculate:

Answer:

A. 50 Hz

B. 2 m/s

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 20 ms to s. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 ms = 1 s

Therefore,

20 ms = 20 ms × 1 s / 1000 ms

20 ms = 0.02 s

Next, we shall convert the value of the wavelength (i.e 4cm) to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

4 cm = 4 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

4 cm = 0.04 m

A. Determination of the frequency.

Period (T) = 0.02 s

Frequency (f) =?

f = 1 / T

f = 1 / 0.02

f = 50 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 50 Hz

B. Determination of the velocity.

Wavelength (λ) = 0.04 m

Frequency (f) = 50 Hz

Velocity (v) =?

v = λf

V = 0.04 × 50

v = 2 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the wave is 2 m/s

Lonnie pitches a baseball of mass 0.20 kg. The ball arrives at home plate with a speed of 40 m/s and is batted straight back to
suter [353]

Answer:

B) 20N.s is the correct answer

Explanation:

The formula for the impulse is given as:

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in speed

Impulse = m × ΔV

Given:

initial speed  = 40m/s

Final speed = -60 m/s (Since the the ball will now move in the opposite direction after hitting the bat, the speed is negative)

mass = 0.20 kg

Thus, we have

Impulse = 0.20 × (40m/s - (-60)m/s)

Impulse = 0.20 × 100 = 20 kg-m/s or 20 N.s

Which is the phase change in which a substance changes from a gas to liquid?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Condensation

Explanation:

The phase change in which a substance changes from a gas to liquid is Condensation.

There are  3 natural states of matter;

Solids, Liquids, and Gases.

Matter under certain conditions can change from one state to another. When Solids are heated they change into Liquids through the process of Heating. Upon cooling, the Liquids convert to Solid through freezing. When a Liquid such as water is heated, it converts into the Gaseous state through evaporation. Upon cooling, the Gas converts back into the Liquid state through Condensation.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a) v=0.999124c

b) E=7.566*10^{22}

c) E_a=760 times\ larger

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse d_b=430ly

Mass of Rocket M_r=20000

Total Time in years traveled T_d=36years

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 E_{2000}=1.0*10^20

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}

v=860ly/ \triangle t

where

\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}

\triangle t=860.7532

Therefore

v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}

v=0.999124c

b)

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2

E=7.566*10^{22}

c)Generally the equation of the energy E_a required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}

E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}

E_a=760 times\ larger
