Suppose you watch a leaf bobbing up and down as ripples pass it by in a pond. You notice that it does two full up and down bobs

each second. What is true of the ripples on the pond?

Answer:

The frequency of the ripples is 2Hz, and their period is 0.5 seconds.

Explanation:

Since the ripples on the pond are making the leaf oscillate up and down at a rate of two times per second, we can calculate the period T and the frequency f of the ripples on the ponT=\frac{1}{0.5Hz} =d.

The frequency, by definition, is the number of waves per unit of time. In this case, we have two waves per second, so the frequency is 2s⁻¹, or 2Hz.

The period is the inverse of the frequency, so

T=\frac{1}{2Hz} =0.5s

Then, the period is equal to 0.5 seconds.

Suppose you first walk 12.0 m in a direction 20? west of north and then 20.0 m in a direction 40.0? south of west. how far are y
Gnesinka [82]
The representation of this problem is shown in Figure 1. So our goal is to find the vector \overrightarrow{R}. From the figure we know that:

\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |=12m \\ \\ \left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |=20m \\ \\ \theta_{A}=20^{\circ} \\ \\ \theta_{B}=40^{\circ}

From geometry, we know that:

\overrightarrow{R}=\overrightarrow{A}+\overrightarrow{B}

Then using vector decomposition into components:

For \ A: \\ \\ A_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |sin\theta_A=-12sin(20^{\circ})=-4.10 \\ \\ A_y=\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |cos\theta_A=12cos(20^{\circ})=11.27 \\ \\ \\ For \ B: \\ \\ B_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |cos\theta_B=-20cos(40^{\circ})=-15.32 \\ \\ B_y=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |sin\theta_B=-20sin(40^{\circ})=-12.85

Therefore:

R_x=A_x+B_x=-4.10-15.32=-19.42m \\ \\ R_y=A_y+B_y=11.27-12.85=-1.58m

So if you want to find out <span>how far are you from your starting point you need to know the magnitude of the vector \overrightarrow{R}, that is:
</span>
\left | \overrightarrow{R} \right |=&#10;\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-19.42)^2+(-1.58)^2}=\boxed{19.48m}

Finally, let's find the <span>compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position. What we are looking for here is an angle that is shown in Figure 2 which is an angle defined with respect to the positive x-axis. Therefore:

</span>\theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{\left | R_y \right |}{\left | R_x \right |}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{1.58}{19.42}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+4.65^{\circ}=185.85^{\circ}

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?
Komok [63]
Data:

E = 20 V
R_{1} = 65\Omega
R_{2} = 65\Omega
R_{3} = 65\Omega
R_{4} = 65\Omega

<span>Now that we have all the values ​​we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

</span>R_{T} =  R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}
R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65
R_{T} = 260\Omega

<span>Like this:
</span>
I_{T} =  \frac{E}{ R_{T} }

I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }
I_{T} = 0,076923076...

\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}} 
Answer:
<span>The intensity of the total electric current 
</span>\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}} 

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.83 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire a
timama [110]

Answer:

The tangential speed of the tack is 6.988 meters per second.

Explanation:

The tangential speed experimented by the tack (v), measured in meters per second, is equal to the product of the angular speed of the wheel (\omega), measured in radians per second, and the distance of the tack respect to the rotation axis (R), measured in meters, length that coincides with the radius of the tire. First, we convert the angular speed of the wheel from revolutions per second to radians per second:

\omega = 2.83\,\frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi\,rad}{1\,rev}

\omega \approx 17.781\,\frac{rad}{s}

Then, the tangential speed of the tack is: (\omega \approx 17.781\,\frac{rad}{s}, R = 0.393\,m)

v = \left(17.781\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)\cdot (0.393\,m)

v = 6.988\,\frac{m}{s}

The tangential speed of the tack is 6.988 meters per second.
