Answer:

1.) 30m/s

2) 5m/s

3) 40Hz

4) 400Hz

5) 300Hz

6) 0.77m

7) 0.386m

8) 0.625m

9) 100m/s

10) 50m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave (V) equals :

V = fλ ; where f = frequency, λ = wavelength

1.) f = 100Hz, λ = 0.30m

v = 100 * 0.30 = 30m/s

2) f = 50Hz λ = 0.10m

v = 50 × 0.10 = 5m/s

3) v = 20m/s, λ= 0.5m

f = v / λ

f = 20 / 0.5 = 40Hz

4) v = 80m/s, λ= 0.2m

f = 80/0.2 = 400Hz

5) v = 120m/s, λ = 0.4m

f = 120 / 0.4 = 300Hz

6) v = 340m/s, f = 440Hz

λ = v / f ; 340 / 440 = 0.77m

7) v = 340m/s, f = 880Hz

λ = 340 / 880 = 0.386m

8) v = 250m/s, f = 400

λ = 250 / 400 = 0.625m

9) f = 50Hz, λ = 2m

v = 50 × 2 = 100m/s

10) f = 100Hz, λ = 0.5m

v = 100 × 0.5 = 50m/s

Answer: D. 5cm

Explanation:

Given the following :

Focal length (f) = - 6.0 cm

Height of object = 15.0cm

Distance of object from mirror (u) = 12.0cm

Height of image produced by the mirror =?

Firstly, we calculate the distance of the image from the mirror.

Using the mirror formula

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/-6 - 1/12

1/v = - 1/6 - 1/12

1/v = (- 2 - 1) / 12

1/v = - 3 / 12

v = 12 / - 3

v = - 4

Using the relation :

(Image height / object height) = (- image distance / object distance)

Image height / 15 = - (-4) / 12

Image height / 15 = 4 / 12

Image height = (15 × 4) / 12

Image height = 60 / 12

Image height = 5cm

Answer:

D. 5 cm

Explanation:got it right

Answer:

A.) 1.3 seconds

B.) 0.42 m

Explanation:

A.) You are given the angle of projection to be 40 degrees and initial velocity of 20m/s. 

At vertical component

U = Usin 40 that is,

U = 20sin40

Using the first equation of motion under gravity

V = U - gt

Let V = 0

0 = UsinØ - gt

gt = UsinØ

t = UsinØ/g

Where U = 20 m/s

Ø = 40 degree

g = 9.8 m/s^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

t = 20sin40/9.8

t = 1.3 seconds

Total time of flight T = 2t

T = 2 × 1.3 = 2.6 s

B.) To calculate the maximum height,

You will use the formula

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

At maximum height, V = 0

2gH = Usin^2Ø

H = Usin^2Ø/ 2g

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

H = 20 sin^2(40) ÷ 2(9.8)

H = 8.2635/19.6

H = 0.42 m

Answer:

The mass of the planet is [tex]3.29\times 10^{23}\ kg[/tex].

Explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational pull on the planet is 620 N

Mass of a satellite is, m₁ = 450 kg

Radius of a planet is [tex]4\times 10^6\ m[/tex]

We need to find the mass of the planet. Gravitational force is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex][tex]m_2[/tex] is the mass of the planet

[tex]m_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{Gm_1}\\\\m_2=\dfrac{620\times (4\times 10^6)^2}{6.7\times 10^{-11}\times 450}\\\\m_2=3.29\times 10^{23}\ kg[/tex]

So, the mass of the planet is [tex]3.29\times 10^{23}\ kg[/tex].

Answer: 20cm

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Magnification of image = - 1.50

Distance of image from the lens = 30.0cm

The Magnification of an image is the ratio of the image distance from the lens and the object distance from the lens.

Mathematically,

Magnification(M) = - (image distance (di) / object distance (do))

M = - (di/do)

-1.50 = - (30/do)

do = 30 / 1.5

do = 20 cm

Object is placed at a distance of 20cm from the lens.

Answer:

E = 77532.42N/C

Explanation:

In order to find the magnitude of the electric field for a point that is in between the inner radius and outer radius, you take into account the Gauss' law for the electric flux trough a spherical surface with radius r:

[tex]\int E\cdot dS=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o}[/tex]       (1)

Q: net charge of the hollow sphere = 1.9*10-6C

ε0: dielectric permittivity of vacuum = 8.85*10^-12 C^2/Nm^2

Furthermore, you have that the net charge contained in a sphere of radius r is:

[tex]Q=\rho V=\rho \frac{4\pi (r^3-r_1^3)}{3}[/tex]      (2)

with the charge density is:

[tex]\rho=\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)}[/tex]          (3)

r2: outer radius = 0.31m

r1: inner radius = 0.105m

The electric field trough the Gaussian surface is parallel to the normal to the surface, the, you have in the integral of the equation (1):

[tex]\int E\cdot dS=E(4\pi r^2)[/tex]      (4)

where you have used the expression for a surface of a sphere.

Next, you replace the expressions of equations (2), (3) and (4) in the equation (1) and solve for E:

[tex]E(4\pi r^2)=\frac{1}{\epsilon_o}\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)}(\frac{4\pi (r^3-r_1^3)}{3})\\\\E=\frac{1}{\epsilon_o}\frac{Q(r^3-r_1^3)}{4\pi r^2(r_2^3-r_1^3)}[/tex]

you replace the values of all parameters, and with r = 0.17m

[tex]E=\frac{(1.6*10^{-6}C)((0.17m)^3-(0.105m)^3)}{4\pi(8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2)(0.17m)^2((0.31m)^3-(0.105m)^3)}\\\\E=77532.42\frac{N}{C}[/tex]

The magnitude of the electric field at a distance r=0.17m to the center of the hollow sphere is 77532.42N/C

Answer:

v = 4.67 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the object is 24.8 cm

Height of the formed image is -3.09 cm

Object distance is 37.5 cm, it is negative always

We need to find the image distance. Let v is the image distance. Magnification of an object is given by the formula as follows :

[tex]\dfrac{h'}{h}=\dfrac{v}{u}\\\\v=\dfrac{uh'}{h}\\\\v=\dfrac{-37.5\times (-3.09)}{24.8}\\\\v=4.67\ m[/tex]

So, the image is formed at a distance of 4.67 m.

Answer:

The top of the circle

Explanation:

At the top of the circle, there are two forces pulling the ball towards the center of the circle: weight and tension.

∑F = ma

mg + T = mv²/r

As v goes down, T also goes down, until it eventually reaches 0.

At the bottom of the circle, weight is pulling down, or away from the center of the circle.  Sum of the forces:

∑F = ma

T − mg = mv²/r

As v goes down, T also goes down.  However, even at v=0, T cannot be less than mg.

Answer:

Deceleration is the opposite of acceleration.

The mathematical formula for deceleration is:

[tex]Deceleration = \frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity}{Time taken}[/tex]

Uniform deceleration of an object can be defined as  decreasing the velocity of an object in equal amount in an equal interval of time.

The graph attached below shows a constant decrease in the velocity with a uniform time interval.

Answer:

The average power the woman exerts is 0.5 kW

Explanation:

We note that power, P = The rate at which work is done = Work/Time

Work = Energy

The total work done is the potential energy gained which is the energy due to vertical displacement

Given that the vertical displacement = 5.0 m, we have

Total work done = Potential energy gained = Mass, m × Acceleration due to gravity, g × Vertical height, h

m = 51 kg

g = Constant = 9.81 m/s²

h = 5.0 m

Also, time, t = 5.0 s

Total work done = 51 kg × 9.81 m/s²× 5 m = 2501.55 kg·m²/s² = 2501.55 J

P = 2501.55 J/(5 s) = 500.31 J/s = 500.31 W ≈ 500 W = 0.5 kW.

Answer:

At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?

Explanation:

In an elliptical orbit, when a planet is at its furthest point from the Sun, it is under the least amount of gravity, meaning that the force of gravity is strongest when it is closest.

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

Recall that gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the 2 objects.

This means that the farther away the objects are from each other, the lesser their gravitational interaction will be.

In this case we can see that Point A is furthest away from the star, hence this will be the location with the least gravitational force from the star.

Answer: Find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

I.) A piece of wire at room temperature.

The resistance of a piece of wire at room temperature is independent of both current and the voltage because it is an Ohmic component.

II.) Filament bulb

The filament wire in the filament bulb does not obey Ohms law.

For very small currents and voltage, the graph is roughly a straight line. At higher voltages, the line starts to curve.

III.) A diode is any component that allows electric current in only one direction. The resistance of a diode depends on the potential difference across it. Therefore, it does not obey Ohms law. It is a non-Ohmic component.

An element is a substance that cannot be chemically converted to another substance or broken down chemically into other substances.

Elements are represented by symbols. The symbol of an element may be the first one or two letters from its English or Latin name. For instance, the symbol of nitrogen is N. This symbol was derived from the first letter of its English name. The symbol for sodium is Na. This was derived from the first two letters of its Latin name, Natrium.

The periodic table is divided into horizontal rows called periods and vertical columns called groups. All members of the same period have the same number of electron shells while all members of the same group have the same number of valence electrons.

Metals are found towards the left hand side of the periodic table while non metals are found towards the right hand side of the periodic table. Metals looses electrons easily while nonmetals accepts electrons easily. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity while non metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity.Metalloids have properties intermediate between those of metals and non metals and are found at the boarder line between metals and non metals in the periodic table. Metalloids include; silicon, boron, germanium, etc. The electrical conductivity of metalloids increases with temperature while the electrical conductivity of metals decreases with temperature.

Answer:

Option D.

A fan is turned from high speed to low speed.

Explanation:

It is important to note that air is also a fluid.

In a system, static pressure of air increases with the speed of rotation of the fan. This is because when the speed of the fan is increased, the force with which it is pushing the air molecules is increased. Since pressure is a relationship between force and area, the pressure of the air molecules will be increased.

Conversely, when the speed of the fan is reduced, the priming force on the air molecules will be reduced, hence the pressure of the air will drop.

This makes option D the correct option
