Answer:

Solution given:

velocity=40cm/s

wave length=5cm

we have

frequency =velocity/wavelength=40/5=8hertz.

the frequency of the wave is 8 hertz.

A slab of glass 8.0 cm thick is placed upon a printed page. If the refractive index of the glass is 1.5, how far from the surfac

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

What information and measurements would you need to calculate the rate of movement?

aliina [53]

When you talk about rate, you will expect that it will be in terms of a time unit. It measures how fast it is going. So, you would expect that the denominator is in time units. For the movement, you can measure this with either distance or velocity.

So, for the first variety, you would need distance and time to measure the rate of how far you go at a certain time. It is also called as velocity. For the second variety, you would need velocity and time to measure the rate of how fast you are going at a certain interval. It is also called as acceleration.

<h2>Full Question:</h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.
