Horizontal component = (10N) · sin (20°) = 3.42... N (rounded)

Vertical component = (10N) · cos (20°) = 9.39... N (rounded)

Raphael refers to a wave by noting its wavelength. lucinda refers to a wave by noting its frequency. which student is correct an

blsea [12.9K]

They are both right because you can note both things, I mean Raphael and Lucinda, both has a right statement or explanation about the wave. Wave by nothing is both for its wavelength and for its frequency. So Raphael and Lucinda are both correct because you can note both wavelength and frequency.

A football player kicks a football downfield. The height of the football increases until it reaches a maximum height of 15 yards

Trava [24]

Answer:

kick 1 has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards

Explanation:

1st kick travelled 15 yards to reach maximum height of 8 yards

so, it has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

2nd kick is given by the equation

y (x) = -0.032x(x - 50)

$Y = 1.6 X - 0.032x^2$

we know that maximum height occurs is given as

$x = -\frac{b}{2a}$

$y =- \frac{1.6}{2(-0.032)} = 25$

and maximum height is

$y = 1.6\times 25 - 0.032\times 25^2$

y = 20

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards

Alex goes cruising on his dirt bike. He rides 700m north, 300m east, 400 m north, 600m west, 1200m south, 300m east and finally

Bess [88]

Find Displacement and Distance

displacement ...

north is 700+400+100 =1200m n

south=1200m

1200-1200=0

east is 300+300=600m

west is 600m

600-600=0

back at dtart. displ zero

distance is 700+ 300m + 400 m + 600m + 1200m + 300m + 100m = 3600m

A uniform 1.4-kg rod that is 0.75 m long is suspended at rest from the ceiling by two springs, one at each end of the rod. Both

svetlana [45]

Answer:

7 deg

Explanation:

$m$ = mass of the rod = $1.4 kg$

$W$ = weight of the rod = $mg = (1.4) (9.8) = 13.72 N$

$k_{L}$ = spring constant for left spring = $59 Nm^{-1}$

$k_{R}$ = spring constant for right spring = $33 Nm^{-1}$

$x_{L}$ = stretch in the left spring

$x_{R}$ = stretch in the right spring

$L$ = length of the rod = 0.75 m

$\theta$ = Angle the rod makes with the horizontal

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for left spring

$k_{L} x_{L} = (0.5) W\\(59) x_{L} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{L} = 0.116 m$

Using equilibrium of force in vertical direction for right spring

$k_{R} x_{R} = (0.5) W\\(33) x_{R} = (0.5) (13.72)\\x_{R} = 0.208 m$

Angle made with the horizontal is given as

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(x_{R} - x_{L})}{L} )\\\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{(0.208 - 0.116)}{0.75} )\\\theta = 7 deg$
