Explanation:

given Time Period = 5 Sec

Amplitude = 1m, Wave length = 15 m

using time period = 1/ frequency , Frequency = 1/5 cycles per sec = 0.2 sec = 12 per min

wave speed= Frequency * Wave length

speed = 0.2*15 = 3m/s

Which force is represented by the arrow at A?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:Gravity is a force of attraction that exists between any two masses, any two bodies, any two particles. Gravity is not just the attraction between objects and the Earth. It is an attraction that exists between all objects, everywhere in the universe.Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.

The normal force is the force that surfaces exert to prevent solid objects from passing through each other. Normal force is a contact force. If two surfaces are not in contact, they can't exert a normal force on each other.The tension force is defined as the force that is transmitted through a rope, string or wire when pulled by forces acting from opposite sides. The tension force is directed over the length of the wire and pulls energy equally on the bodies at the ends.

In the given figure, weight of stone inside water
AnnZ [28]

The actual weight of the stone is 11 N. It is based on the Archimedes principles.

<h3>What is Archimedes principle?</h3>
  • Archimedes principle states that the up thrust by water on an object is equal to the weight of water displaced.
  • Upthrust by water on an object= actual weight of object - weight inside water

<h3>What is the actual weight of the object, if its weight inside water is 9N and weight of water displaced is 2N?</h3>

Actual weight= weight inside water+ weight of water displaced

= 9N + 2N = 11N

Thus, we can conclude that the actual weight of the object is 11N.

an ant weighing 200 N and wearing platform heels with a total area of 7 square centimeters would exert how much pressure?​
iVinArrow [24]

The pressure exerted is 2.86\cdot 10^5 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a force on a surface is given by

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

p is the pressure

F is the magnitude of the force

A is the area of the surface

In this problem, we have:

F = 200 N is the force exerted (the weight of the ant)

A=7 cm^2 = 7\cdot 10^{-4} m^2 is the area

Therefore, the pressure exerted is:

p=\frac{200}{7\cdot 10^{-4}}=2.86\cdot 10^5 Pa

Ladybug walks 10 cm forward and 5 cm backwards in 20 seconds what is the average speed of ladybug what is the average velocity
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Average speed = 0.0075 m/s

Average velocity = 0.0025 m/s along forward direction

Explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance and time and velocity is the ratio of displacement and time.

Distance traveled = 10 + 5 = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Displacement = 10 - 5 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Time = 20 seconds

\texttt{Average speed = }\frac{\texttt{Distance}}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Average speed = }\frac{0.15}{20}=7.5\times 10^{-3}m/s\\\\\texttt{Average velocity = }\frac{\texttt{Displacement}}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Average velocity = }\frac{0.05}{20}=2.5\times 10^{-3}m/s

Average speed = 0.0075 m/s

Average velocity = 0.0025 m/s along forward direction
