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

A positive charge of 18nC is evenly distributed along a straight rod of length 4.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a rad
sergey [27]

Explanation:

Formula for angle subtended at the center of the circular arc is as follows.

           \theta = \frac{S}{r}

where,   S = length of the rod

              r = radius

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.      

                \theta = \frac{S}{r}

                             = \frac{4}{2}

                             = 2 radians (\frac{180^{o}}{\pi})

                             = 114.64^{o}

Now, we will calculate the charge density as follows.

                 \lambda = \frac{Q}{L}

                            = \frac{18 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 m}

                            = 4.5 \times 10^{-9} C/m

Now, at the center of arc we will calculate the electric field as follows.

                 E = \frac{2k \lambda Sin (\frac{\theta}{2})}{r}

                     = \frac{2(9 \times 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2})(4.5 \times 10^{-9}) Sin (\frac{114.64^{o}}{2})}{2 m}

                      = 34.08 N/C

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the electric eld at the center of curvature of the arc is 34.08 N/C.
