What is one way that light waves differ from sound waves?(1 point)

Physics
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]1 year ago
7 0
Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant.

A 1500 kg car traveling east at 40 km/hr turns a corner and speeds up to a velocity of 50 km/hr due north. What is the change in
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

96046  Ns.

Explanation:

We shall represent velocity in vector form considering east direction as + ve x axis and north as + y direction.

40 km/h in the east

V₁ = 40 i

V₂ = 50j

momentum p₁ = mV₁

= 1500 X 40 i

= 60000 i

Momentum p₂ = mV₂

= 1500 X 50j

= 75000 j

Change in momentum

p₂ - p₁

75000j - 60000i

Magnitude of change

= \sqrt{(750000)^2 +(60000)^2

= 96046  Ns.

What is the acceleration of a ball traveling horizontally with an initial velocity of 20 meters/second and, 2.0 seconds later, a
Nutka1998 [239]

The acceleration of the ball is 5 m/s^2. This can be calculated using a formula that relates the change in velocity, acceleration, and time. This formula is:

Vf = Vi + at

where:
Vf = final velocity
Vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time

Substituting the values gives:

30 = 20 + a(2)
<span>a = 5 m/s^2 --> Final Answer</span>

Betty weighs 400 N and she is sitting on a playground swing seat that hangs 0.21 m above the ground. Tom pulls the swing back an
disa [49]

Answer:

4.15 m/s

Explanation:

As the total energy must be conserved (neglecting air resistance) the change in gravitational potential energy, must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

ΔE = ΔK + ΔU =0

If we take as a zero reference level for the gravitational potential energy, the height of the swing seat above the ground, (which is equal to 0.21 m), we can find the initial gravitational energy, considering the height of the point where the seat is released, regarding this point:

h₀ = 1.09 m -0.21 m = 0.88 m

⇒ U₀ = m*g*h₀ = 400 N*0.88 m = 352 J

As Uf = 0, ΔU = Uf -U₀ = -352 J

As the swing starts from rest, K₀=0, so we can say:

ΔK = Kf = \frac{1}{2} *m*vf^{2}  (1)

As ΔK = -ΔU ⇒ ΔK = 352 J (2)

From (1) and (2) we can solve for vf, as follows:

vf = \sqrt{\frac{2*352J}{40.8kg}} = 4.15 m/s

So, when the swing passes through its lowest position, Betty moves at 4.15 m/s.
