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.

A4 kg bowling ball begins rolling down a at bowling alloy at 6 m/s . When it strikes the pins, it is estimated to be moving at 5

Paul [167]

Answer:

Energy lost due to friction is 22 J

Explanation:

Mass of the ball m = 4 kg

Initially velocity of ball v = 6 m/sec

So kinetic energy of the ball $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE=\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 6^2=72J$

Now due to friction velocity decreases to 5 m/sec

Kinetic energy become

$KE=\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 5^2=50J$

Therefore energy lost due to friction = 72 -50 = 22 J

How do i find stretch? The problem in questioning has already given me the elastic energy and k-value, but I have no idea how to

finlep [7]

Answer:

Stretch can be obtained using the Elastic potential energy formula.

The expression to find the stretch (x) is $x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Explanation:

Given:

Elastic potential energy (EPE) of the spring mass system and the spring constant (k) are given.

To find: Elongation in the spring (x).

We can find the elongation or stretch of the spring using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy (EPE).

The formula to find EPE is given as:

$EPE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

Rewriting the above expression in terms of 'x', we get:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Example:

If EPE = 100 J and spring constant, k = 2 N/m.

Elongation or stretch is given as:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}\\\\x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 100}{2}}\\\\x=\sqrt{100}=10\ m$

Therefore, the stretch in the spring is 10 m.

So, stretch in the spring can be calculated using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy.

A space probe lands on a newly discovered planet. A small canister is released from the probe and falls a distance of 3 m in 0.5

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

24m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Distance S = 3m

Time of fall = 0.5sec

Required

Acceleration due to gravity

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2gt²

Substitute the given values

3 = 0+1/2g(0.5)²

3 = 1/2(0.25)g

3 = 0.125g

g = 3/0.125

g = 24

Hence the value for the acceleration of gravity on this new planet is 24m/s²

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits

Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.
