Wave speed = (wavelength) x (frequency)

Wave speed = (3 m) x (15 Hz)

<em>Wave speed = 45 m/s</em>

A stone is dropped into a river from a bridge 41.7 m above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically down 1.80 s after the f
hram777 [196]

Answer:

31.75 m/s

Explanation:

h = 41.7 m

Let the initial velocity of the second stone is u

Let the time taken to reach to the bottom by the first stone is t then the time taken by the second stone to reach the ground is t - 1.8.

For first stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, u = 0, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and t be the time and h = 41.7

So, 41.7= 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

41.7 = 4.9 t^2

t = 2.92 s ..... (1)

For second stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and time taken is t - 1.8 = 2.92 - 1.8 = 1.12 s, h = 41.7 m and u be the initial velocity

h=u\left ( t-1.8 \right )+4.9\left ( t-1.8 \right )^2    .... (2)

By equation the equation (1) and (2), we get

41.7=1.12 u +4.9 \times 1.12^{2}

u = 31.75 m/s

In an experiment refractive index of glass was observed to be 1.45,1.56,1.54,1.44,1.54and1.53. Calculate mean value of refractiv
Sever21 [200]
The mean may be calculated by summing the values of the refractive index and dividing the sum by the number of experiments. This is:
Mean = (1.45 + 1.56 + 1.54 + 1.44 + 1.54 + 1.53)/6
Mean = 1.51

The mean absolute error is the sum of the absolute values of errors divided by the number of trials:
MAE = (|1.45-1.51|+|1.56-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.44-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.53-1.51|)/6
MAE = 0.043

The fractional error is the MAE divided by the actual value:
Fractional error = 0.043 / 1.51
Fractional error = 43/1510

The percentage error is the fractional error multiplied by 100:
Percentage error = 2.85%

If a car travels 216 kilometers in 4 hours, calculate its speed.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

15 m/s

Explanation:

Speed(m/s) = distance(m)/time(s)

distance = 216 km = 216,000 m

time = 4 hours = 14,400 s

speed = 216000/14400 = 15 m/s

An isolated charged point particle produces an electric field with magnitude E at a point 2 m away. At a point 1 m from the part
guajiro [1.7K]

Explanation:

The electric field at a distance r from the charged particle is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k is electrostatic constant

if r = 2 m, electric field is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{kq}{(2)^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{4}\ .....(1)

If r = 1 m, electric field is given by :

E_2=\dfrac{kq}{r_2^2}\\\\=\dfrac{kq}{1}\ ....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kq}{4}}{kq}\\\\\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\E_2=4\times E_1

So, at a point 1 m from the particle, the electric field is 4 times of the electric field at a point 2 m.

Each second, 1250 m3 of water passes over a waterfall 150 m high. Three-fourths of the kinetic energy gained by the water in fal
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The generator produces electrical energy at a rate of 1378125000 J per second.

Explanation:

volume of water falling each second is 1250 m^{3}

height through which it falls, h is 150 m

mass of 1 m^{3} of water is 1000 kg

⇒mass of 1250 m^{3} of water, m = 1250×1000 = 1250000 kg

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 \frac{m}{sec^{2} }

in falling through 150 m in each second, by Work-Energy Theorem:

Kinetic Energy(KE) gained by it = Potential Energy(PE) lost by it

⇒KE = mgh

        = 1250000×9.8×150 J

        = 1837500000 J

Electrical Energy = \frac{3}{4}(KE)

                            = \frac{3}{4}×1837500000

                            = <u>1378125000 J per second</u>
