What is the relationship among amplitude,crest,and trough?

1 answer:

5 0

These are characteristics of a wave. The amplitude is how high and low the waves go. Crests are high points on the wave, and troughs are low points on the wave.

The leaves of a tree lose water to the atmosphere via the process of transpiration. A particular tree loses water at the rate of

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

Explanation:

Given:

The rate of water loss, Q = 3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s

Number of vessels contained, n = 2000

Diameter of the vessel, D = 100 Mu m

thus, the radius of the vessel, r = 50 × 10⁻⁶ m

Now, the rate of flow is given as:

Q = AV .............(1)

where, A is the area of the cross-section

V is the velocity

Total area, A = n × (πr²)

substituting the values in the equation (1), we get

3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s = [2000 × (π × (50 × 10⁻⁶)²)] × V

V = 1.909 × 10⁻³ m/s or 1.90 mm/s

Hence, the speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

Where is the near point of an normal eye when accidentally wear a contact lens with a power of +2.0 diopters?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

The near point of an eye with power of +2 dopters, u' = - 50 cm

Given:

Power of a contact lens, P = +2.0 diopters

Solution:

To calculate the near point, we need to find the focal length of the lens which is given by:

Power, P = $\frac{1}{f}$

where

f = focal length

Thus

f = $\frac{1}{P}$

f = $\frac{1}{2}$ = + 0.5 m

The near point of the eye is the point distant such that the image formed at this point can be seen clearly by the eye.

Now, by using lens maker formula:

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{u'}$

where

u = object distance = 25 cm = 0.25 m = near point of a normal eye

u' = image distance

Now,

$\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}$

$\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{0.5} - \frac{1}{0.25}$

$\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}$

Solving the above eqn, we get:

u' = - 0.5 m = - 50 cm

A 5.5-kW resistance heater in a water heater runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. Determine the

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

16.5 kwh and 59400 kJ.

Explanation:

kWh is a measure of energy that is equivalent to the power in kw times the number of hours the device worked.

In this case, it would be equal to:

$E_{kwh}=5.5kw*3h=16.5kwh$

1 kw also means 1kj of energy spent per second. With this, we calculate the amount of energy in kJ spent by the resistance:

$E_{kJ}=5.5\frac{kJ}{s}*3h*\frac{3600s}{1h} = 59400 kJ$
