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

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00
rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s

Suppose the glass paperweight has index of refraction n=1.38. a) find the value of θ for which the reflection on the vertical su
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a)θ=71.89°

b)NO

Explanation:

Given that

For glass n= 1.38

We know that for air n'=1

The angle  for total internal reflection θc given as

sin θc=n'/n

By putting the values

sin θc=n'/n

sin θc=1/1.38

θc=46.43°

n'sinθ = n sinθref

sinθref = cosθc

n'sinθ =  n cosθc

1 x sinθ =1.38 x cos 46.43°

θ=71.89°

b)

NO
