The speed of the tennis ball is 8 km/h when Alana throws the ball behind at the speed of 11 km/h.

<h3>What is the frame of reference?</h3>

It is a point from where the motion is observed. The speed changes with the frame of reference.

For the person standstill on the sidewalk, If  Alana throw the ball in the front direction, The speed will be,

19+11 = 30 km/h

It Alana just leave the ball, the speed,

19 +0 = 19 km/h

If Alana throws the ball behind her at the speed of 19 km/h. The speed of the ball for a sidewalk observer,

19 +(-19 ) =  0 km/h

Thus, when Aana throw the ball behind the velocity will be negative,

So,

19 + (-11 ) = 8 km/h

Therefore, the speed of the tennis ball is 8 km/h when Alana throws the ball behind at the speed of 11 km/h.

A 25-g string is stretched with a tension of 43 N between two fixed points 12 m apart. What is the frequency of the second harmo
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The frequency of the second harmonic (2f_o) is 11.97 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the string, m = 25 g = 0.025kg

tension on the string, T = 43 N

length of the string, L = 12 m

The speed of wave on the string is given as;

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }

where;

μ is mass per unit length = 0.025 / 12 = 0.002083 kg/m

v = \sqrt{\frac{43}{0.002083} }\\\\v  = 143.678 \ m/s

The wavelength of the first harmonic wave is given as;

L = \frac{1}{2} \lambda _o\\\\\lambda _o = 2L \\\\\lambda _o = 2 \ \times \ 12\\\\\lambda _o = 24 \ m

The frequency of the first harmonic is given as;

f_o = \frac{v}{\lambda _o} = \frac{v}{2L} = \frac{143.678}{24} = 5.99 \ Hz\\\\

The wavelength of the second harmonic wave is given as;

L = \lambda_1 \\\\\lambda_1 = 12 \ m

The frequency of the second harmonic is given as;

f_1 = \frac{v}{\lambda _1} = \frac{143.678}{12} = 11.97 \ Hz = 2(\frac{v}{\lambda _0}) = 2f_o

Therefore, the frequency of the second harmonic (2f_o) is 11.97 Hz.

Two satellites orbit the Earth in circular orbits of the same radius. One satellite is twice as massive as the other. Which stat
loris [4]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the orbital velocity of a satellite on earth.

This concept is expressed in the equation,

v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm_E}{r}}

Where,

G = Universal Gravitational constant

m_E = Mass of the Earth

Therefore the ratio of the velocity from two satellites is,

\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \sqrt{\frac{r_2}{r_1}}

The ratio between the two satellites is the same, then

\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \sqrt{\frac{r}{r}}

\frac{v_1}{v_2} = 1

v_1 =v_2

Therefore the correct option is B.
