Answer:

1.67m

5m/s

Explanation:

Wavelength of the wave = 3m

Speed of the wave = 5m/s

The distance between crest and the adjacent trough of water waves is known as the wavelength of a wave.

To find the frequency ;

V = f∧

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

Insert the parameters and find the frequency;

f = V/ ∧ = 5 / 3 = 1.67Hz

The rate at which the wave passed a given point is the speed of the wave and it is 5m/s

viktelen [127]

1000 miles = 1610km = 1.61x10^6m
2 weeks = 14 days = 14x24x1440

V=d/t = 1.61x10^6/14x24x1440
= 3.33m/s

Suppose I have a vector that is 7 units long and that makes an angle of +30 degrees from the positive x-axis. I want to add to t

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

Explanation:

We have given first vector which has length of 7 units and makes an angle of 30° with positive x-axis

So x component of the vector $=7cos30^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06$

y component of the vector $=7sin30^{\circ}=7\times 0.5=3.5$

So vector will be 6.06i+3.5j

Now other vector of length of 7 units and makes an angle of 120° with positive x-axis

So x component of vector $=7cos120^{\circ}=7\times -0.5=-3.5i$

y component of the vector $=7sin120^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06j$

Now sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j
