The graph shows a wave that oscillates with a frequency of 60 Hz. Based on the information given in the diagram, what is the spe

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

900 cm/s or 9 m/s.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Length (L) = 30 cm

frequency (f) = 60 Hz

Velocity (v) =.?

Next, we shall determine the wavelength (λ).

This is illustrated below:

Since the wave have 4 node, the wavelength of the wave will be:

λ = 2L/4

Length (L) = 30 cm

wavelength (λ) =.?

λ = 2L/4

λ = 2×30/4

λ = 60/4

λ = 15 cm

Therefore, the wavelength (λ) is 15 cm

Now, we can obtain the speed of the wave as follow:

wavelength (λ) = 15 cm

frequency (f) = 60 Hz

Velocity (v) =.?

v = λf

v = 15 × 60

v = 900 cm/s

Thus, converting 900 cm/s to m/s

We have:

100 cm/s = 1 m/s

900 cm/s = 900/100 = 9 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the wave is 900 cm/s or 9 m/s.

A 6 kg object falls 10 m. The object is attached mechanically to a paddle-wheel which rotates as the object falls. The paddle-wh

maksim [4K]

Answer: $16.234^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given

Mass of object (m)=6 kg

falling height(h)=10 m

mass of water( $m_w$ )=600 gm

temperature of water =15

specific heat of water $=4.186 j/g-^{\circ}C$

Let T be the Final Temperature of water

Here Object Potential Energy is converted into Heat energy which will be absorbed by water

Potential Energy(P.E.) $=mgh=6\times 9.81\times 10=588.6 J$

Heat supplied $=m_wc(\Delta T)$

$H.E.=600\times 4.186\times (T-16)$

$588.6=2511.6\times (T-16)$

T-16=0.234

$T=16.234^{\circ}C$

This is not an efficient way of heating water as there is only $0.234^{\circ}C$ increase in temperature.

A batter hits a pop fly, and the baseball (with a mass of 148 g) reaches an altitude of 265 ft. If we assume that the ball was 3

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

Potential Energy (U) is the energy of a body located at a certain height (h) above the ground and is calculated as follows:

U = m × g × h

U: Potential Energy in Joules (J)

m: mass in kg

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

h: height in m

Equivalences

1 kg = 1000 g

1 ft = 0.3048 m

1 N = 1 (kg×m)/s²

1 J = N × m

Known data

$h_2 = 265ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 80.77m$

$h_1 = 3ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 0.914m$

$m = 148g*\frac{1kg}{1000g} = 0.148kg$

$g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$

Problem development

ΔU: Potential energy change

ΔU = U₂ - U₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓgₓh₂ - mₓgₓh₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓg(h₂ - h₁)

$U_2 - U_1 = 0.148kg * 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}*(80.77m - 0.914m) = 115.82 N * m = 115.82J$

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J
