Tapping the surface of a pan of water generates 17.5 waves per second. If the wavelength of each wave is 45 cm, what is the spee

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that, tapping the surface of a pan of water generates 17.5 waves per second.

We know that the number of waves per second is called the frequency of a wave.

So, f = 17.5 Hz

Wavelength of each wave, $\lambda=45\ cm=0.45\ m$

Speed of the wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda$

$v=17.5\times 0.45$

v = 7.87 m/s

So, the speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

The moon has a diameter of 3.48 x 106 m and is a distance of 3.85 x 108 m from the earth. The sun has a diameter of 1.39 x 109 m

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.00903 rad

0.00926 rad

6.268\times 10^{-6}

Explanation:

s = Diameter of the object

r = Distance between the Earth and the object

Angle subtended is given by

$\theta=\frac{s}{r}$

For the Moon

$\theta_m=\dfrac{3.48\times 10^6}{3.85\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \theta_m=0.00903\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Moon is 0.00903 rad

For the Sun

$\theta_s=\dfrac{1.39\times 10^9}{1.5\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_s=0.00926\ rad$

The angle subtended by the Sun is 0.00926 rad

Area ratio is given by

$\frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{\pi r_m^2}{\pi r_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{d_m^2}{d_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{(3.48\times 10^{6})^2}{(1.39\times 10^9)^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=6.268\times 10^{-6}$

The area ratio is $6.268\times 10^{-6}$

What is the kinetic energy of a 1130 kg truck that is moving with a velocity of 40 m/s?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The answer is 904,000.

Kinetic energy=1/2mv^2.

1/2×1130×40^2.

1/2×1808000=904,000Joules.

How microwave tower work?

Airida [17]

Answer:

Microwave towers are telecommunications towers that use microwaves to transmit telephone and television signals to other microwave towers.

Explanation:

This technology replaced existing transmission wires, but it is almost entirely obsolete as of 2015 due to the advent of fiber optics and other modern methods of telecommunication.
