Answer:

<em>d. unchanged.</em>

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is dependent on the speed of the wave and the wavelength of the wave. The frequency is characteristic for a wave, and does not change with distance. This is unlike the amplitude which determines the intensity, which decreases with distance.

In a wave, the velocity of propagation of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency. The speed of sound does not change with distance, except when entering from one medium to another, and we can see from

v = fλ

that the frequency is tied to the wave, and does not change throughout the waveform.

where v is the speed of the sound wave

f is the frequency

λ is the wavelength of the sound wave.

A weightlifter lifts a 13.0-kg barbel from the ground an moves it a distance of 1.3 meters. What is the work se does on the barb
marta [7]

The work done on the barbell is -165.62 Nm.

Explanation:

Work done on any object is the measure of force required to move that object from one position to another. So it is determined by the product of force acting on the object with the displacement of the object.

In the present problem, the displacement of the object on acting of force is given as 1.3 m. And the weight of the object which is a barbel is given as 13 kg. As the work is to lift the object from the ground, so the acceleration due to gravity will be acting on the object. In other words, the force applied on the object to lift it should be in opposite direction to the acting of acceleration due to gravity.

Thus, Force = - Mass * Acceleration due to gravity = - 13 * 9.8 =-127.4 N

Now, the force is -127.4 N and the displacement is 1.3 m.

So, Work done = F*d

Work done = -127.4* 1.3 = -165.62 Nm

So, the work done on the barbell is -165.62 Nm.

The average mass of an automobile in the United States is about 1.440x10^6 g express this mass in kilograms
-BARSIC- [3]
From the problem statement, this is a conversion problem. We are asked to convert from units of grams to units of kilograms. To do this, we need a conversion factor which would relate the different units involved. We either multiply or divide this certain value to the original measurement depending on what is asked. From literature, we will find that 1000 grams is equal to 1 kilogram. We use this as follows:

<span> 1.440x10^6 g ( 1 kg / 1000 g ) = 1440 kg</span><span>

explain why the impact of one heavy stone would produce waves with higher amplitude than the impact of the light stone would
DerKrebs [107]
The heavy stone would produce waves with a higher amplitude, rather than the smaller stone, because since the stone is heaver its going to have a grater impact and displace more water to create a bigger wave.

Answer:

a) W = - 318.26 J, b)  W = 0 , c) W = 318.275 J , d) W = 318.275 J , e) W = 0

Explanation:

The work is defined by

           W = F .ds = F ds cos θ

Bold indicate vectors

We create a reference system where the x-axis is parallel to the ramp and the axis and perpendicular, in the attached we see a scheme of the forces

Let's use trigonometry to break down weight

     sin θ = Wₓ / W

     Wₓ = W sin 60

     cos θ = Wy / W

      Wy = W cos 60

X axis

How the body is going at constant speed

    fr - Wₓ = 0

    fr = mg sin 60

    fr = 15 9.8 sin 60

    fr = 127.31 N

Y Axis  

    N - Wy = 0

    N = mg cos 60

    N = 15 9.8 cos 60

    N = 73.5 N

Let's calculate the different jobs

a) The work of the force of gravity is

     W = mg L cos θ

Where the angles are between the weight and the displacement is

      θ = 60 + 90 = 150

     W = 15 9.8 2.50 cos 150

     W = - 318.26 J

b) The work of the normal force

     From Newton's equations

          N = Wy = W cos 60

          N = mg cos 60

         W = N L cos 90

        W = 0

c) The work of the friction force

      W = fr L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

      W = 318.275 J

d) as the body is going at constant speed the force of the tape is equal to the force of friction

      W = F L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

       W = 318.275 J

e) the net force

    F ’= fr - Wx = 0

    W = F ’L cos 0

    W = 0
