Hello,

To solve this question we need to find the value speed of the wave.

Speed = Distance / Time

Thus, 

x = 25/5.0

= 5.0 m/s

What is Otter's average velocity over his entire trip when it takes him 2 minutes to walk 100 meters north and another 1 minute
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

0.50m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity = ∆S/∆t

∆S = 100m - 70m

∆S = 30m

∆t = 2min - 1 min

∆t = 1min = 60secs

Substitute the given parameters into the formula for velocity

Velocity = 30m/60s

Velocity = 1/2 m/s

Average Velocity = 0.5m/s

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,
Alex Ar [27]
Ans: 
1.  τbiceps = +(Positive)
2.  τforearm = -(Negative)
3.  τball = -(Negative)

Explanation:

The figure is attached down below.

1. T<span>orque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
</span>Where r is the vector from elbow to the biceps.
<span>
We can see in the figure that F(biceps) is in upward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the counterclockwise direction. The torque in counterclockwise direction is positive(+). Therefore, the sign would be +.

2. </span>Torque about the the weight of the forearm, τforearm:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the forearm.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(forearm) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

3. Torque about the the weight of the ball, τball:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the ball.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(ball) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

This means that the speed at which the bullet travels across Earth's surface (its magnitude of horizontal velocity) does not aff
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: the speed at which it falls toward the Earth.


Explanation:


A bullet travelling across Earth's surface with some horizontal velocity is classical example of projectile motion.


Projectile motion is an idealization of the motion under the action of gravity neglecting the influence of the air (no drag force nor friction).


This  kind of motion is the result of two independent motions: vertical motion and horizontal motion.


The observed net velocity is the vectorial sum of the vertical and horizontal velocities.


The horizontal velocity is constant, since there is not any force acting in the horizontal axis. Thi is, the object, following the first Law of Newton (inertia law) tends to continue in uniform rectilinear movement (with zero acceleration).


The vertical velocity, this is the velocity at which the bullet falls toward the Earth, is influenced (accelerated) by the action of the gravity of the Earth. So, the vertical velocity is accelerated by the pull of the Earth.


Vertical and horizontal velocities are independent of each other, which means that the speed or the magnitude of the horizontal velocity does not affect the speed at which an object (the bullet) falls toward the Earth.

A block of size 20m x 10 mx 5 m exerts a force of 30N. Calculate the
Orlov [11]

Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻²  ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻²   ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.

A sheet of gold leaf has a thickness of 0.125 micrometer. A gold atom has a radius of 174pm. Approximately how many layers of at
Olegator [25]

Answer:

719

Explanation:

Conversion

1 picometer (pm) is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-12} meter

1 micrometer is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-6} meter

To find the number of layers, we divide the overal leaf thickness by the thickness of one atom hence dividing tex]0.125 × 10^{-6}[/tex] meter by 174 × 10^{-12} meter we get that the number of sheets will be as follows

\frac {0.125× 10^{-6}}{174\times 10^{-12}}=718.3908045\approx 719

Therefore, they are approximately 719 sheets
