Answer:
a. Speed = 1.6 m/s
b. Amplitude = 0.3 m
c. Speed = 1.6 m/s
Amplitude = 0.15 m
Explanation:
a.
The frequency of the wave must be equal to the reciprocal of the time taken by the boat to move from the highest point to the highest point again. This time will be twice the value of the time taken to travel from the highest point to the lowest point:
frequency = [tex]\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}[/tex] = 0.25 Hz
The wavelength of the wave is the distance between consecutive crests of wave. Therefore,
Wavelength = 6.4 m
Now, the speed of the wave is given as:
Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)
Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)
Speed = 1.6 m/s
b.
Amplitude is the distance between the mean position of the wave and the extreme position. Hence, it will be half the distance between the highest and lowest point:
Amplitude = (0.5)(0.6 m)
Amplitude = 0.3 m
c.
frequency = [tex]\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}[/tex] = 0.25 Hz
Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)
Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)
Speed = 1.6 m/s
Amplitude = (0.5)(0.3 m)
Amplitude = 0.15 m
A rabbit dashes across a field in a zig-zag pattern trying to outrun a fox. If the rabbit’s average is speed is 9.8 m/s it reaches the hole in 8.5 s what is the total distance it ran?
Answer:
83.3 m
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying on of the formula of velocity
V = d/t.................. Equation 1
Where V = average velocity, d = distance, t = time.
make d the subject of the equation
d = V×t................. Equation 2
Given: V = 9.8 m/s, t = 8.5 s
Substitute these values into equation 2
d = 9.8×8.5
d = 83.3 m
Hence the total distance covered by the rabbit is 83.3 m

Suppose we have a vacuum with two metal plates separated by 2 meters. One of the plates has a hole in it so that a charged particle coming from the other one can pass through into empty space. ;The plate with a hole is attached to a voltage source of 5,000,000 V and electrons and muons are introduced near the other plate at 0 V. What energies and velocities do the electrons and muons have when they pass through the hole
Answer:
hello your question has a some missing information below is the missing information
An electron is one of the most fundamental particles in nature. It is everywhere, in all the matter we can see, and it is with electrons that light interacts when it is emitted, absorbed, or scattered in everyday matter. The electron has a more massive cousin called a muon, also with a charge of -1 e, but with a mass of 1.88x10-28 kg. The electron's mass is 9.11x10-31 kg. You can see why a muon is called a "heavy" electron. A muon is also unstable, and left alone at rest in a lab it will turn into an electron, kinetic energy, and two neutrinos with a lifetime of 2.20x10-6 s.
answer :
energy and velocity of Electron : 8*10^-13 J , < 3*10^8 m/s
energy and velocity of Muon : 8*10^-13 J, 9.22 * 10^7 m/s
Explanation:
Determine the energies and velocities of the electrons and Muons when they pass through the hole
i) energy of electron = q1 * V -- ( 1 )
V ( voltage ) = 5 * 10^6 V
q1 ( charge on electron ) = 1.6 * 10^-19 C
back to equation 1 ; energy of electron = ( 1.6 * 10^-19 ) * 5 * 10^6
= 8*10^-13 J
ii) velocity of electron = 1/2 * Me *( Ve)^2
1/2 * Me *( Ve)^2 = 8*10^-13
∴Ve = [tex]\sqrt{(8*10^{-13} )/(9.11*10^{-31} )}[/tex] < 3*10^8 m/s
iii) energy of muon
= Eu = q*v = 8*10^-13 J
iv ) velocity of Muon = [tex]\sqrt{(8*10^{-13} )/(1.88*10^{-28} )}[/tex] = 9.22 * 10^7 m/s
Why would the kinetic energy at the bottom of the track be less than the potential energy at the top of the track?
Answer:
This is because of friction and heat lost.
Explanation:
A vertical spring with a spring constant of 420 N/m is mounted on the floor. From directly above the spring, which is unstrained, a 0.15-kg block is dropped from rest. It collides with and sticks to the spring, which is compressed by 3.7 cm in bringing the block to a momentary halt. Assuming air resistance is negligible, from what height above the compressed spring was the block dropped
Answer:
19.53 cm
Explanation:
The computation of the height is as follows:
Here we applied the conservation of the energy formula
As we know that
P.E of the block = P.E of the spring
m g h = ( 1 ÷ 2) k x^2
where
m = 0.15
g = 9.81
k = 420
x = 0.037
So now put the values to the above formula
(0.15) (9.81) (h) = 1 ÷2 × 420 × (0.037)^2
1.4715 (h) = 0.28749
h = 0.19537 m
= 19.53 cm

If the girl skater has a mass of 30 kg and moves backward at 5 m/s, what is the velocity or the boy skater
his mass is 50 kg?
Question: Two people stand facing each other at a roller-skating rink then push off each other. If the girl skater has a mass of 30 kg and moves backward at 5 m/s, what is the velocity of the boy skater if his mass is 50 kg?
Answer:
3 m/s
Explanation:
Applying,
The Law of conservation of momentum
Momentum of the girl skater = momentum of the boy skater
MV = mv...................... Equation 1
Where M = mass of the girl skater, V = velocity of the girl skater, m = mass of the boy skater, v = velocity of the boy skater
From the question, we were asked to calculate v
v = MV/m.................. Equation 1
Given: M = 30 kg, V = 5 m/s, m = 50 kg
Substitute these values into equation 1
v = (30×5)/50
v = 3 m/s
Hence the velocity of the the boy skater is 3m/s

One example of angular momentum is someone (like Bill Nye, the Science Guy) on a rotating platform. In a regular year we would have done this in lab ourselves, but since we can't - have a video instead. Assume for now we are talking about when he has his arms pulled in towards his torso and not stretched out. Bill Nye has a mass of 84.0 kg, a height of 1.50 m and a radius of 16.0 cm. He is spinning at a rate of 5.00 rpm (revolutions / minute) by the end of the video. What is his angular momentum based on these numbers
Answer:
0.563 kg-m²/s
Explanation:
Bill Nye's angular momentum L = Iω where I = rotational inertia = 1/2MR² (since we are considering him to be cylinder with his axis of rotation from is top to bottom- that is vertical through his height) where M = his mass = 84.0 kg and R = his radius = 16.0 cm = 0.16 m and ω = angular speed = 5.00 rpm = 5.00 × 2π/60 = π/6 rad/s = 0.524 rad/s
L = Iω
L = 1/2MR²ω
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
L = 1/2MR²ω
L = 1/2 × 84.0 kg × (0.16 m)² × 0.524 rad/s
L = 1/2 × 84.0 kg × 0.0256 m² × 0.524 rad/s
L = 1/2 × 1.12681 kg-m²rad/s
L = 0.5634 kg-m²rad/s
L ≅ 0.563 kg-m²/s

Explanation:
Why don’t the northern and Southern Hemisphere experience summer at the same time?
Answer:
It is because of the tilt of the earth.
Explanation:
the earth is tilted at 23.5 degrees. this makes it so that either the northern or southern hemisphere will be exposed to more rays from the sun. In the areas that are getting more rays from the sun, it gets warmer. Think about it like this, because the earth is tilted, part of it is more in the shade and part of it is more in the light. And its colder in the shade, so thats why seasons happen and why they dont happen at the same time.

just took the test
The best labeling for the chart would be Title 1 is "Transverse Waves," and Title 2 is "Longitudinal Waves." Therefore, the correct option is B.
The two types of waves that are the subject of the chart under consideration are transverse waves and longitudinal waves. While longitudinal waves have vibrations parallel to the path of wave travel, transverse waves have vibrations perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
The graphic distinguishes between these wave types by designating title 1 as "transverse wave" and title 2 as "longitudinal wave". Using this labeling, viewers can understand and differentiate the two wave ranges based on their unique characteristics.
So, the correct option is B.

what produces the distinctive flame color of different substances when they are ignited?
Answer:
Electrons in different metals
Explanation:
When you heat an atom, some of its electrons are "excited* to higher energy levels. When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy. The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.

A particle cannot generally be localized to distances much smaller than its de Broglie wavelength. This means that a slow neutron appears to be larger to a target particle than does a fast neutron, in the sense that the slow neutron will probably be found over a large volume of space. For a thermal neutron at room temperature (300 K), find (a) the linear momentum and (b) the de Broglie wavelength. Compare this effective neutron size with both nuclear and atomic dimensions.
Answer:
a) p = 1.381 10⁻²⁹ kg m / s, b) λ = 4.80 10⁻⁵ m,
c) λ/a₀ = 9.6 10⁴ = 10⁵, λ/aₙ = 4.80 10⁹
Explanation:
a) as the neutral goes at speeds much lower than the speed of light we can use the classical relationships, as the neutral all the thermal energy is the energy of the neutron
E = p c
K T = pc
p = k T / c
p = [tex]\frac{ 1.381 \ 10^{-23} \ 300}{3 \ 10^8}[/tex]
p = 1.381 10⁻²⁹ kg m / s
b) the expression for the de Broglie wavelength
p = h / λ
λ = h / p
λ =[tex]\frac{ 6.63 \ 10^{-34} }{1.381 \ 10^{-29}}[/tex]
λ = 4.80 10⁻⁵ m
c) let's compare this size with the size of atoms a₀ = 0.5 10⁻⁹ m
λ/a₀ = [tex]\frac{ 4.80 \ 10^{-5} }{0.5 \ 10^{-9}}[/tex]
λ/a₀ = 9.6 10⁴ = 10⁵
c) let's compare with the atomic nucleus size aₙ = 10⁻¹⁴ m
λ/aₙ = [tex]\frac{4.80 \ 10^{-5} }{10^{-14} }[/tex]
λ/aₙ = 4.80 10⁹
Police radar guns measure the speed of moving vehicles by transmitting electromagnetic waves at a vehicle and detecting a Doppler shift in the reflected wave. Suppose police radar transmits at a frequency of 24.0 GHz and receives a wave reflected from a car moving toward the radar at 65.0 mph. Find the frequency shift Df 5 fO 2 fS between the observed (received) and source (transmitted) frequencies.
Answer:
[tex]4649.20\ \text{Hz}[/tex]

If the acceleration of the body is towards the center, what is the direction of the unbalanced force ? Using a complete sentence , describe the direction of the net force that causes the body to travel in a circle at a constant speed.
Accelerating objects are changing their velocity. Velocity is often thought of as an object's speed with a direction. Thus, objects which are accelerating are either changing their speed or changing their direction. They are either speeding up, slowing down or changing directions. Changing the velocity in any one of these three ways would be an example of an accelerated motion.
