Heat used by electric heater :

Q = m • c • ∆T

Q = (75 kg)(4200 J/kg°C)(43°C - 15°C)

Q = 8.82 × 10⁶ J

Cost of electrical energy :

Cost = (8.82 × 10⁶ J)/(3.6 × 10⁶ J) • ($ 0.15)

Cost = $ 0.3675

A transverse mechanical wave is traveling along a string lying along the x-axis. The displacement of the string as a function of

Wewaii [24]

(1) The wavelength of the wave is 1.164 m.

(2) The velocity of the wave is 23.7 m/s.

(3) The maximum speed in the y-direction of any piece of the string is 6.14 m/s.

<h3> Wavelength of the wave</h3>

A general wave equation is given as;

y(x, t) = A sin(Kx - ωt)

<h3>Velocity of the wave</h3>

v = ω/K

From the given wave equation, we have,

y(x, t) = 0.048 sin(5.4x - 128t)

v = ω/K

where;

ω corresponds to 128
k corresponds to 5.4

v = 128/5.4

v = 23.7 m/s

<h3>Wavelength of the wave</h3>

λ = 2π/K

λ = (2π)/(5.4)

λ = 1.164 m

<h3>Maximum speed of the wave</h3>

v(max) = Aω

where;

A is amplitude of the wave
ω is angular speed of the wave

v(max) = (0.048)(128)

v(max) = 6.14 m/s

Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 1.164 m.

The velocity of the wave is 23.7 m/s.

The maximum speed in the y-direction of any piece of the string is 6.14 m/s.

How are frequency and wave period related?

dedylja [7]

-- The unit of frequency is "per second" (Hz), which is [reciprocal time].

-- The unit of period is "second", which is [time].

Do you see where this is going ?

'Frequency' and 'period' are reciprocals of each other.

For any wave ...

Period = (1) / (frequency) .

Frequency = (1) / (period) .

A skater extends her arms, holding a 2 kg mass in each hand. She is rotating about a vertical axis at a given rate. She brings h

Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between torque and angular acceleration is as follows.

$\tau = I \times \alpha$

and, I = $\sum mr^{2}$

So, $I_{1} = 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2}$

= 4 $kg m^{2}$

$\tau_{1} = 4 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{1}$

$\tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}$

So, $I_{2} = 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2}$

= 1 $kg m^{2}$

as $\tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}$

= $1 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{2}$

Hence, $\tau_{1} = \tau_{2}$

$4 \alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2}$

$\alpha_{1} = \frac{1}{4} \alpha_{2}$

Thus, we can conclude that the new rotation is $\frac{1}{4}$ times that of the first rotation rate.

A pulled tablecloth exerts a frictional force of 0.6 n on a plate with a mass of 0.4 kg. what is the acceleration of the plate?

Ludmilka [50]

The formula for acceleration is a = F/m; Where: F = force; m = mass
Given: F = .6n; m = .4kg; a = ?
a = F/m
= .6/.4
= 1.5

Therefore, the acceleration of the plate is 1.5 m/s^2
