Answer:

Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier. Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another.

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

$K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}$

Explanation:

When the springs are connected end to end, it means they are connected in series. When the springs are connected in series, the stress applied to the system gets applied to each of the springs without any change in magnitude while the strain of the system is the sum total of strains of each spring. The spring constant of the resultant system is given as,

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{n}})$

Here, n = 10

Spring constant of each spring = k

Thus,

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{10}})$

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})$

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = \frac{10}{k}$

$K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}$

A delta connection has a voltage of 560 V connected to it. How much voltage is dropped across each phase

SashulF [63]

Answer:

E_Phase = 560V

Explanation:

The computation of the voltage i.e. dropped across each phase is shown below:

Given that

The delta connection line voltage is

E_line = 560 V

And, in the case of delta connection, the line voltage would be equivalent to the phase voltage

That means

E_Phase = E_Line

= 560 V

Hence, the voltage i.e. dropped across each phase is

E_Phase = 560V

harina [27]

Answer:

Option d is the correct option Kinetic energy is minimum while as potential energy is maximum

Explanation:

At the top most point of the flight since it cannot reach any further up in the vertical direction thus the potential energy at this position shall be maximum. Now since the total energy of the projectile is conserved so the remaining kinetic energy shall be minimum at that point so as the sum of the kinetic and potential energies remain constant.
