You dip your finger into a pan of water twice each second, producing waves with crests that are separated by 0.15 m. Determine the frequency, period, and speed of these water waves.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
Frequency = rate of sploosh = 2 per second  =  2 Hz.

Period = ( 1/frequency ) =  1/2  second

Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (0.15m) x ( 2/sec) = 0.075 m/s .

Which example describes constant acceleration due ONLY to a change in direction?a. increasing speed while traveling around a curve
b. an object at rest
c. traveling around a circular track
d. an object in free fall

Answers

Answer:

c. traveling around a circular track

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time:

a=(\Delta v)/(\Delta t)

However, velocity is a vector quantity. This means that acceleration can be due to:

- A change in the speed of an object, or

- A change in the direction of the object

Let's analyze each choice:

a. increasing speed while traveling around a curve  --> in this case, both speed and direction are changing (the direction is changing since the object is moving around a curve), so this is not the correct choice

b. an object at rest  --> here neither the speed nor the direction are changing (in fact, the object is not accelerating), so this is not the correct choice

c. traveling around a circular track  --> here the direction is changing (because the track is circular), while we don't know anything about the speed. If we assume the speed to be constant, then this is the correct choice

d. an object in free fall --> here the speed is changing, while the direction not, so this is not the correct choice


'Traveling around a circular track' can be a description of constant
acceleration due only to changes in direction.  But if it is, then the
progress around the circular track must be at constant speed.

A series circuit contains two devices, one with a resistance of 10 ohms and one with a resistance of 4 ohms. If the generator supplies a voltage of 42 V, what is the magnitude of the current? A. 2 A B. 3 A C. 1.75 A D. 1.33 A

Answers

First you calculate the total resistance. Since the resistors are connected in series, the total equivalent resistance is:
Rtotal = R1 + R2 = 10 + 4 = 14 ohms

Now you calculate the electrical current with Ohm's law:
I = U/Rtotal = 42/14 = 3A

Correct answer: B. 3 A
