The fine horizontal scratches etched onto a bullet after it has been fired are called Striations.

<h3>What is Striations?</h3>
  • Striations are the minute differences in the curve of the bullet's surface. The bullet and the gun barrel are the harder and softer materials, respectively, in firearms evidence.
  • The striations left on the fired bullet are used as a comparison by firearm examiners.
  • When a gun is discharged, the bullet blasts down the barrel where it strikes ridges and grooves, spinning and improving shot accuracy.
  • These ridges cause striations in the bullet's soft metal by digging into it.
  • An examiner analyses these distinctive markings to verify whether a given bullet was shot from a specific firearm.
  • A barrel will produce individual markings in addition to a bullet's land and groove impressions as the projectile passes through.

If the amplitude of a wave is 4 feet, what is the Wave Height?
Alexus [3.1K]

A wave is a disturbance that moves along a medium from one end to the other. If one watches an ocean wave moving along the medium (the ocean water), one can observe that the crest of the wave is moving from one location to another over a given interval of time. The crest is observed to cover distance. The speed of an object refers to how fast an object is moving and is usually expressed as the distance traveled per time of travel. In the case of a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a given point on the wave (such as a crest) in a given interval of time. In equation form,

Two insulated wires, each 2.64 m long, are taped together to form a two-wire unit that is 2.64 m long. One wire carries a curren
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

4.77\ \text{A}

Explanation:

F = Magnetic force = 4.11 N

I_n = Net current

I_2 = Current in one of the wires = 7.68 A

B = Magnetic field = 0.59 T

\theta = Angle between current and magnetic field = 65^{\circ}

l = Length of wires = 2.64 m

I = Current in the other wire

Magnetic force is given by

F=I_nlB\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow I_n=\dfrac{F}{lB\sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow I_n=\dfrac{4.11}{2.64\times 0.59 \sin65^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow I_n=2.91\ \text{A}

Net current is given by

I_n=I_2-I\\\Rightarrow I=I_2-I_n\\\Rightarrow I=7.68-2.91\\\Rightarrow I=4.77\ \text{A}

The current I is 4.77\ \text{A}.
