What is wave? What does a wave carry with it​

Physics
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]2 years ago
6 0
A wave carries energy from a source to a point some distance away. A wave is reflected by a barrier. The reflected wave moves away from the barrier at an angle that is equal to the angle with which the incoming wave moved towards the barrier. When a wave is slowed down, it refracts—that is, changes direction.

A train travels up a hill that is 100 meters long. If the train has climbed 50 meters vertically. How far the train traveled hor
NeTakaya

Answer:

27.3 meters

Explanation:

A train travels up a hill that is 100 meters long. If the train has climbed 50 meters vertically, it traveled 27.3 meters vertically. Therefore, the answer is 27.3 meters.

(100)² = (50)²+x²

10000 - 2500 = x²

7500 = x²

x = 27.3 or 27.3 meters

Hope this helped!

I need both parts please (a) Given a material with an attenuation coefficient (a) of 0.6/cm, what is the intensity of a beam (wi
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

<h3>a.</h3>
  • After it has traveled through 1 cm : I(1 \ cm) = 0.5488 I_0
  • After it has traveled through 2 cm : I(2 \ cm) = 0.3012 I_0
<h3>b.</h3>
  • After it has traveled through 1 cm : od( 1\ cm) =  0.2606
  • After it has traveled through 2 cm :  od( 2\ cm) =  0.5211

Explanation:

<h2>a.</h2>

For this problem, we can use the Beer-Lambert law. For constant attenuation coefficient \mu the formula is:

I(x) = I_0 e^{-\mu x}

where I is the intensity of the beam, I_0 is the incident intensity and x is the length of the material traveled.

For our problem, after travelling 1 cm:

I(1 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6 \frac{1}{cm} \ 1 cm}

I(1 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6}

I(1 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6}

I(1 \ cm) = 0.5488 \ I_0

After travelling 2 cm:

I(2 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6 \frac{1}{cm} \ 2 cm}

I(2 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 1.2}

I(2 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 1.2}

I(2 \ cm) = 0.3012 \ I_0

<h2>b</h2>

The optical density od is given by:

od(x) = - log_{10} ( \frac{I(x)}{I_0} ).

So, after travelling 1 cm:

od( 1\ cm) = - log_{10} ( \frac{0.5488 \ I_0}{I_0} )

od( 1\ cm) = - log_{10} ( 0.5488 )

od( 1\ cm) = - (  - 0.2606)

od( 1\ cm) =  0.2606

After travelling 2 cm:

od( 2\ cm) = - log_{10} ( \frac{0.3012 \ I_0}{I_0} )

od( 2\ cm) = - log_{10} ( 0.3012 )

od( 2\ cm) = - (  - 0.5211)

od( 2\ cm) =  0.5211

To heat the house, the boiler transfers 15 MJ of energy in 10 minutes.
Harrizon [31]

The formula is P = E/t, where P means power in watts, E means energy j , and t means time in seconds. This formula states that power is the consumption of energy per unit of time.

P = 15 M / 10*60

M = mega = 10⁶

15 *10⁶ / 600

= 25000 watt
