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

When dots are placed on a page from a laser printer, they must be close enough so that you do not see the individual dots of ink

Dovator [93]

Answer:

y <8 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

For this exercise, they indicate that we use the Raleigh criterion that establishes that two luminous objects are separated when the maximum diffraction of one of them coincides with the first minimum of the other.

Therefore the diffraction equation for slits with m = 1 remains

a sin θ = λ

in general these experiments occur for oblique angles so

sin θ = θ

θ = λ / a

in the case of circular openings we must use polar coordinates to solve the problem, the solution includes a numerical constant

θ = 1.22 λ / a

The angles in these measurements are taken in radians, therefore

θ = s / R

as the angle is small the arc approaches the distance s = y

y / R = 1.22 λ / s

y = 1.22 λ R / a

let's calculate

y = 1.22 500 10⁻⁹ 0.42 / 0.032

y = 8 10⁻⁶ m

with this separation the points are resolved according to the Raleigh criterion, so that it is not resolved (separated)

y <8 10⁻⁶ m

A 5.10 kgkg watermelon is dropped from rest from the roof of a 18.5 mm-tall building and feels no appreciable air resistance.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Work done is by the change in the potential energy of the system. The work done by gravity is 924.63 J.

<h3>What is the Kinetic Energy?</h3>

Potential energy in physics is the energy that an item retains as a result of its position in relation to other objects, internal tensions, electric charge, or other elements.
The gravitational potential energy of an object, which is based on its mass and distance from another object's center of mass, the elastic potential energy of an extended spring, and the electric potential energy of an electric charge in an electric field are examples of common types of potential energy. The joule, denoted by the letter J, is the energy unit in the International System of Units (SI).

Solution:

mass = 5.10 kg

height = 18.5 mm

We know that work done by the gravity on the watermelon is the change in the potential energy of the watermelon, therefore,

Work done due to gravity = change in the potential energy of the system

W = $\Delta PE$

W = mg (h₀ - h₁)

W = 5.10 × 9.8 × 18.5

W = 924.63 J

65. The weight of a body when totally immersed in a liquid is 4.2N if he weight of the liquid displaced is 2.5N. Find the weight

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Given, Apparent weight(W₂)=4.2N

Weight of liquid displaced (u)=2.5N

Let weight of body in air = W₁

Solution,

U=W₁-W₂

W₁=4.2=2.5=6.7N

∴Weight of body in air is 6.7N
