The time period of the transverse wave in a rope will be \boxed{{\text{0}}{\text{.025 s}}}.

Further Explanation:

The waves are the disturbance created in the medium particles. A transverse wave in a rope is the disturbance produced in the particles of the rope in the vertical direction.

A transverse wave is a wave in which the disturbance in the medium is perpendicular to the propagation of the wave. The time period of the wave is the time taken in completing one oscillation about the mean position.

The expression of the transverse wave in the rope is given.

y\left( {x,t} \right) = \left( {0.750\,{\text{cm}}} \right)\cos \left( {\pi \left[ {\left( {0.400\,{\text{cm}} - {\text{1}}} \right)x + \left( {250\,{{\text{s}}^{ - 1}}} \right)t} \right]} \right)  

The standard equation for a wave present in a rope is given as.

\boxed{y\left( {x,t} \right) = A\cos \left( {kx + \omega t} \right)}  

Here, A is the amplitude of the wave, y is the position of the wave, k is the wave number and \omega is the angular frequency of the wave.

From the above expression, the angular frequency of the wave is obtained as.

\omega  = 250\pi  

We know that the time period is obtained from the angular frequency as.

T = \dfrac{{2\pi }}{\omega }  

Substitute the value of \omega in above expression.

\begin{aligned}T &= \frac{{2\pi }}{{250\pi }} \\&= \frac{1}{{125}}\,{\text{s}} \\&\approx {\text{0}}{\text{.008}}\,{\text{s}} \\&\approx {\text{8}}\,{\text{ms}} \\\end{aligned}  

Thus, the time period of the transverse wave in the rope is \boxed{8\,{\text{ms}}}.

Using a graphical tool to obtain the form of the wave we can see that

It is periodic in X with period = 5 cm

It is periodic in t with period = 1/125 s = 8 ms

What type of data allows geologists to know what rock layers lie underneath Minnesota?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The answer is well log data, it is a detailed log of information taken from a borehole which geologist used to study geological formations of the earth's layer taken from samples returned from the borehole which was dugged.

Can I get help and an explanation on C?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

1.67 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = final momentum

(30 kg) (10 m/s) + (35 kg) (-10 m/s) = (30 kg) v + (35 kg) (0 m/s)

300 - 350 = 30v

v = -5/3 m/s

Linus will move at 1.67 m/s in the direction opposite that he started.

Which asteroid has more potential energy an asteroid that is closest to the sun or an asteroid that is farthest away from the su
Sloan [31]

When the comet is closest to the Sun,
it has its maximum kinetic energy
and minimum gravitational potential energy. When the comet is far away from the Sun, it has maximum gravitational potential energy and minimal kinetic energy. It's faster when it's close because the Sun's gravity is pulling the comet closer. The opposite for when it gets farther away
