Explaining Wave Speed through Different Media

Physics
1 answer:
Serggg [28]4 years ago
7 0

Explain why the speed of light is lower than

3.0 × 108 m/s as it goes through different media.

--------------------

the molecules are forced to vibrate. that vib causes re emission. speed of emiited waves less than in vac.

The total mass of the train and its passengers is 750000kg. The train is traveling at a speed of 84m/s. The driver applies the b
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

|F| = 393750  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Total mass of the train, m = 750000 kg

Initial speed, u = 84 m/s

Final speed, v = 42 m/s

Time, t = 80 s

We need to find the net force acting on the train. The formula for force is given by :

F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{750000\times (42-84)}{80}\\\\F=-393750\ N

So, the magnitude of net force is 393750  N.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units. If the charge
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

new force is 6 times of the initial force.

Explanation:

Let the charges on two objects is q₁ and q₂. The electric force between charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units

If the charge  of Object 1 is doubled and the charge of object 2 is tripled, it means, q_1'=2q_1 and q_2'=3q_2. New force is given by :

F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{k(2q_1)(3q_2)}{r^2}\\\\F'=6\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F'=6F

So, the new electrostatic force between objects will become 6 times of the initial force.

Consider and mass of a material​
Leni [432]

Answer:Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. Density often has units of grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3). ... You probably have an intuitive feeling for density in the materials you use often. For example, sponges are low in density; they have a low mass per unit volume.
