Answer:

Explanation:

There are 2 ways to help with this. Explain the details, which are fairly simple in this topic, or give the formula. My hope is that an explanation will last longer than memorizing the formula. I give you both.

If a wave has frequency, f, of 3 Hz, its period, T, is

1

3

s

. The wavelength,

λ

, is 5 meters. That means that in the time of one period, the wave travels 5 m.

In general,

S

p

e

e

d

=

distance

time

In applying this general definition of speed

↑

to a wave, we have

speed of the wave

=

wavelength

period

Note: we generally use v for speed of a wave. Using the variable names, then that last formula is written

v

=

λ

T

Since

T

=

1

f

, we can also say that

v

=

λ

⋅

f

So, using that last formula

v

=

5

m

⋅

3

H

z

=

15

m

s

Note: the unit Hz is equivalent to what it was called 100 years ago,

cycles

second

(

also cps

)

. Cycles is not a true unit, so the Hz contributed only the "per second" to the result

15

m

s

.

Answer: the speed is =30ms^-1 The speed of a wave is given by "speed" (ms^-1)= "frequency(Hz)" xx "wavelength (m)" The frequency is f=100Hz The wavelength is lambda=0.3m The speed is v=lambdaf=0.3*100=30ms^-1

At 7.0°c, the volume of a gas is 49 ml. at the same pressure, its volume is 74 ml at what temperature?
Rashid [163]
So i converted everything first; 
<span>7.0 C ---> 280 K </span>
<span>49 mL---> 0.049 L </span>
<span>74mL---> 0.074 L </span>
<span>THEN I tried setting it up by the combined law formula which is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2 </span>

How many seconds will it take for a the International Space Station to travel 450 km at a rate of 100 m/s?
SVEN [57.7K]

Time = (distance) / (speed)

<em></em>

Time = (450 km) / (100 m/s)

Time = (450,000 m) / (100 m/s)

Time = <em>4500 seconds </em>(that's 75 minutes)

Note:

This is about HALF the speed of the passenger jet you fly in when you go to visit Grandma for Christmas.

If the International Space Station flew at this speed, it would immediately go ker-PLUNK into the ocean.

The speed of the International Space Station in its orbit is more like 3,100 m/s, not 100 m/s.

A packing crate rests on a horizontal surface. It is acted on by three horizontal forces: 600 N to the left, 200 N to the right,
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The resultant force would (still) be zero.

Explanation:

Before the 600-N force is removed, the crate is not moving (relative to the surface.) Its velocity would be zero. Since its velocity isn't changing, its acceleration would also be zero.

In effect, the 600-N force to the left and 200-N force to the right combines and acts like a 400-N force to the left.

By Newton's Second Law, the resultant force on the crate would be zero. As a result, friction (the only other horizontal force on the crate) should balance that 400-N force. In this case, the friction should act in the opposite direction with a size of 400 N.

When the 600-N force is removed, there would only be two horizontal forces on the crate: the 200-N force to the right, and friction. The maximum friction possible must be at least 200 N such that the resultant force would still be zero. In this case, the static friction coefficient isn't known. As a result, it won't be possible to find the exact value of the maximum friction on the crate.

However, recall that before the 600-N force is removed, the friction on the crate is 400 N. The normal force on the crate (which is in the vertical direction) did not change. As a result, one can hence be assured that the maximum friction would be at least 400 N. That's sufficient for balancing the 200-N force to the right. Hence, the resultant force on the crate would still be zero, and the crate won't move.

URGENTTT PLEASE HELPPPP. You put m1 = 1 kg of ice cooled to -20°C into mass m2 = 1 kg of water at 2°C. Both are in a thermally i
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

heat lost by water will be used to increase the temperature of  ice

heat gained by ice

= mass x specific heat  x rise in temperature

1 x 2090 x t

heat lost by water in cooling to 0° C

= mcΔt  where m is mass of water , s is specific heat of water and Δt is fall in temperature .

= 1 x 2 x 4186  

8372

heat lost = heat gained

1 x 2090 x t  = 8372

t = 4°C

There will be a rise of  4 degree in the temperature of ice.
