Answer:

11.25m

Explanation:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2} \\ = 0 \times 1.5 + \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times {1.5}^{2} \\ = 5 \times 2.25 \\ = 11.25$

sweet [91]

Answer:

16Hz

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed of sound = 400m/s

Wavelength = 25m

Unknown:

Frequency of the wave = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

V = F ∧

V is the velocity

F is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

400 = F x 25

F = 16Hz

When numbers are very small or very large, it is convenient to either express the value in scientific notation and/or by using a

Oxana [17]

Answer:

5 mg, $5\cdot 10^{-3}g$

Explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite the mass in grams using scientific notation.

we have:

m = 0.005 g

To rewrite it in scientific notation, we must count by how many digits we have to move the dot on the right - in this case three. So in scientific notation is

$m=5\cdot 10^{-3}g$

If we want to convert into milligrams, we must remind that

1 g = 1000 mg

So we can use the proportion

$1 g : 1000 mg = 0.005 g : x$

and we find

$x=\frac{(1000 mg)(0.005 g)}{1 g}=5 mg$

IP The x and y components of a vector r⃗ are rx = 16 m and ry = -8.5 m , respectively

fiasKO [112]

as it is given that

$r_x = 16 m$

$r_y = -8.5 m$

now we will have

$\vec r = 16 \hat i - 8.5 \hat j$

now the magnitude of this vector is given as

$|r| = \sqrt{16^2 + 8.5^2}$

$|r| = 18 m$

now to find the direction we can use

$tan\theta = \frac{r_y}{r_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{-8.5}{16}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(-0.53)$

$\theta = - 28^0$
