Answer:

Capillary waves travel faster than long waves.

Explanation

Capillary waves are also known as ripples these waves has wavelength of the order of  about 1.5 cm or less that it. In capillary waves surface tension of water act as a restoring force. This restoring force is very less in comparison to the air which below on the surface of water due to  which  these waves are produced. Hence these waves travel faster that long waves.

550 J of work must be done to compress a gas to half its initial volume at constant temperature. How much work must be done to c
Over [174]

Answer:

The amount of work that must be done to compress the gas 11 times less than its initial pressure is 909.091 J

Explanation:

The given variables are

Work done = 550 J

Volume change = V₂ - V₁ = -0.5V₁

Thus the product of pressure and volume change = work done by gas, thus

P × -0.5V₁ = 500 J

Hence -PV₁ = 1000 J

also P₁/V₁ = P₂/V₂ but V₂ = 0.5V₁ Therefore  P₁/V₁ = P₂/0.5V₁ or P₁ = 2P₂

Also to compress the gas by a factor of 11 we have

P (V₂ - V₁) = P×(V₁/11 -V₁) = P(11V₁ - V₁)/11 = P×-10V₁/11 = -PV₁×10/11 = 1000 J ×10/11  = 909.091 J of work

An automobile being tested on a straight road is 400 feet from its starting point when the stopwatch reads 8.0 seconds and is 55
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a)   v = 75 ft / s , b)  v = 55 ft / s , c)   Δx = 1000 ft

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise with the expressions of kinematics

a) average speed is defined as the distance traveled in a given time interval

        v = (x₂-x₁) / (t₂-t₁)

         v = (550 - 400) / (10 -8)

         v = 75 ft / s

b) we repeat the calculations for this interval

   v = (550 - 0) / (10 -0)

   v = 55 ft / s

c)  we clear the distance from the average velocity equation

     Δx = v (t₂ -t₁)

     Δx = 100 (20-10)

     Δx = 1000 ft

A bicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripet
kogti [31]
The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation, 
                                    Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius. 
Substituting the known values,
                                     Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
                                         = 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.
