If a wave vibrates up and down twice each second and travels a distance of 20 m each second and travels a distance of 20 m each

second, what is its frequency? Its wave speed?

Answer:

Frequency is 0.5 Hz and the wave speed is 10 m/s.

Explanation:

As we know that frequency is defined as the how many times the no of cycles repeat in one second so if the wave is vibrating up and down  twice during 1 second then the frequency in 1 second is

f=\frac{1}{2} hz\\F=0.5hz

Therefore frequency is 0.5 Hz.

Now the distance of wawe in each second is,

d=20m

Now the wave velocity is,

v=fd

Here, f is frequency, d is the distance, v is the wave velocity.

Substitute all the variables

v=0.5\times 20\\v=10m/s

Therefore the wave speed is 10 m/s.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

delta V = v * alpha * delta T

= V * 0.00053 * (92.2 - 55.0)

= 0.019716 V

percentage that the owner

= [delta V / V] * 100

= [0.019716 V / V] * 100

= 1.9716 %

A wave is propagating from left to right in a medium. The particles in the medium are also vibrating from left to right. What ki
Anna71 [15]
Based on the direction of propagation compared to direction of vibration, waves are classified into:
1- Transverse waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the medium particles.
2- Longitudinal waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of the medium particles.

For the question we have here, since the direction of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of particles, therefore, this wave is a longitudinal wave

A tennis ball of mass m=0.060 kg and speed v=25 m/s strikes a wall at a 45 angle and rebounds with the same velocity at 45°. Wha
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Impulse which can be defined as the product between mass and the total change in velocity. That is to say

p = m\Delta v

Here,

m = mass

\Delta v = Change in velocity

As we can see there are two types of velocity at the moment the object makes the impact,

the first would be the initial velocity perpendicular to the wall and the final velocity perpendicular to the wall.

That is to say,

v_i = vcos\theta

v_f = -v sin\theta

El angulo dado es de 45° y la velocidad de 25, por tanto

v_i = (25)cos(45) = 17.68m/s

v_f = -(25)sin(45) = -17.68m/s

The change of sign indicates a change in the direction of the object.

Therefore the impulse would be as

p = 0.060(-17.68-17.68)

p = -2.12kg \cdot m/s

The negative sign indicates that the pulse is in the opposite direction of the initial velocity.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

position of centre of mass of door from surface of water

= 10 + 1.1 / 2

= 10.55 m

Pressure on centre of mass

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column

10 ⁵ + hdg

= 10⁵ + 10.55 x 1000 x 9.8

= 2.0339 x 10⁵ Pa

the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface)

= pressure at the centre x area of the door

= .9 x 1.1 x 2.0339 x 10⁵

= 2.01356 x 10⁵ N

pressure centre will be at 10.55 m below the surface.

When the car is filled with air or  it is filled with water , in both the cases pressure centre will lie at the centre of the car .

B) Explain the method of preparing electromagnet. How do you test the
kap26 [50]

Answer:

An electromagnet is made by forming a coil around a soft iron bar (known here as the metal) such as a nail or  screw and connect with an insulated copper wire (known here as the electric current conductor) the ends of the wound copper is then connected separately to the positive and negative terminals of a battery (known here as the source of electric current)

The north seeking needle of the magnetic compass will move away when brought close to the north pole of the formed electromagnet which can then be labelled N

The magnetic compass needle will be attracted to the south pole of the electromagnet which can then be labelled S

Explanation:

An electromagnet is an electric powered magnet that is formed (temporarily) by the perpendicular movement of electric current with respect to a metal core

The magnitude and the poles of an electromagnet can be changed by changing the magnitude and the direction of flow of the electric current respectively.
