What is the speed of a 16 cm wave with a period of 8 seconds?

sp2606 [1]

The speed of a 16cm wave with a period of 8 seconds is 2cm/s

<h3>How to determine the speed</h3>

Using the formula;

Speed = distance ÷ time

Distance = 16cm

time = 8 seconds

Substitute into the formula

Speed = 16 ÷ 8

Speed = 2 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of a 16cm wave with a period of 8 seconds is 2cm/s

A proton is released from rest at the positive plate of a parallelplatecapacitor. It crosses the capacitor and reaches the negat

Triss [41]

Answer:

2.1406 × $10^6$ m/sec

Explanation:

we know that energy is always conserved

so from the law of energy conservation

$qV=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

here V is the potential difference

we know that mass of proton = 1.67× $10^{-27}$ kg

we have given speed =50000m/sec

so potential difference $V=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}50000^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=13.045$

now mass of electron =9.11× $10^{-31}$

so for electron

$\frac{1}{2}\times 9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 13.045=2.1406\times 10^6 m/sec$

so the velocity of electron will be 2.1406× $10^6$ m/sec

You are unloading a refrigerator from a delivery van. The ramp on the van is 5.0 mm long, and its top end is 1.4 mm above the gr

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Work done is 1.31 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Length of the ramp (L) = 5.0 mm

Height of the top end (H) = 1.4 mm

Horizontal force applied (F) = 270 N

Work done (W) = ?

We know that,

Work done is equal to the product of force and displacement caused along the line of application of force.

Here, the force acting on the refrigerator is in the horizontal direction while the refrigerator is moving down along the length of the ramp. So, we have to first find the horizontal component of the displacement caused.

Now, consider the triangle ABC representing the given situation. The point A is the top end point of the ramp, AB is the length of the ramp, AC is the vertical displacement of the refrigerator and BC is the horizontal displacement of the refrigerator.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

$AB^2=BC^2+AC^2\\\\(5.0)^2=BC^2+(1.4)^2\\\\BC=\sqrt{25.0-1.96}\\\\BC=4.86\ mm$

Now, force applied on the refrigerator is in the direction opposite to the horizontal component of displacement. So, work is negative.

Work = Force × Horizontal displacement

$W=270\ N\times 4.86\ mm\\\\W=1312.2\ \textrm{N-mm}\\\\W=1.31\ J\ \ \ \ \ \textrm{ [1 mm = 0.001 m]}$

Therefore, work done is 1.31 J.

How does the amount of atmosphere affect what color the sky appears to be?

weeeeeb [17]

The atmosphere creates a cover over the earth preventing us from seeing space and it’s natural color and the light that is created by the sun reflected on the ocean creates the color that the sky appears to be blue
