Explanation:
A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.
Frequency
Wavelength etc
The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.
Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :
Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength
Answer:
The rate of change of the distance between the helicopter and yourself (in ft/s) after 5 s is
ft/ sec
Explanation:
Given:
h(t) = 25 ft/sec
x(t) = 10 ft/ sec
h(5) = 25 ft/sec . 5 = 125 ft
x(5) = 10 ft/sec . 5 = 50 ft
Now we can calculate the distance between the person and the helicopter by using the Pythagorean theorem

Lets find the derivative of distance with respect to time

Substituting the values of h(t) and x(t) and simplifying we get,



=
=
ft / sec
To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.
To change from mass to weight is Fw = 30 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 294 N. To change from weight to mass divide by gravity (9.8 m/s^2).
