<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. Longitudinal waves

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point to another. It involves the transmission of energy from a source to other points.
<em><u>Waves may classified as longitudinal waves or transverse waves depending on the vibration of particles relative to the wave motion.</u></em>
<em><u>Longitudinal waves are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion, while transverse wave are types of waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the wave motion.</u></em>
Longitudinal waves creates regions of compressions and rarefactions, while transverse waves creates regions of maximum displacement called crests and troughs

What do scientitsts do to easily share mesurment data they can understand

Leona [35]

There are a few ways to do this- unfortunately different fields are better at it than others! Medical research is generally pretty good, some other fields likewise very good, some not as much. Basically, though, what they do is use standadisation- they agree on the terminology, units of data, statistical measures, and so forth, that will be used in that scientific field. As much as possible, every scientist in the field uses those standards so everyone working in the field should recognise it. For instance, in clinical trials, there is very good agreement worldwide on what the different metrics we use are- e.g. in cancer research, we usually want to know the 5-year survival rate (meaning the percentage of patients still alive 5 years after diagnosis). So anyone with the right training should be able to pick up a clinical trial report and understand what the results are and what the report is saying.

A solenoid coil with 22 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 340 turns. The inner solenoid is 25.0 cm long an

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a) 1.34*10^-8 W

b) 1.18*10^-5 H

c) 20mV

Explanation:

a) To find the average magnetic flux trough the inner solenoid you the following formula:

$\Phi_B=BA=\mu_oNIA$

mu_o: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4pi*10^-7 T/A

N: turns of the solenoid = 340

I: current of the inner solenoid = 0.100A

A: area of the inner solenoid = pi*r^2

r: radius of the inner solenoid = 2.00cm/2=1.00cm=10^-2m

You calculate the area and then replace the values of N, I, mu_o and A to find the magnetic flux:

$A=\pi(10^{-2}m)^2=3.141510^{-4}m^2\\\Phi_B=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(0.100A)(3.1415*10^{-4}m^2)=1.34*10^{-8}W\\$

the magnetic flux is 1.34*10^{-8}W

b) the mutual inductance is given by:

$M=\mu_o N_1 N_2 \frac{A_2}{l}$

N1: turns of the outer solenoid = 22

N2: turns of the inner solenoid

A_2: area of the inner solenoid

l: length of the solenoids = 25.0cm=0.25m

by replacing all these values you obtain:

$M=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(22)\frac{3.14*10^{-4}m^2}{0.25m}=1.18*10^{-5}H$

the mutual inductance is 1.18*10^{-5}H

c) the emf induced can be computed by using the mutual inductance and the change in the current of the inner solenoid:

$\epsilon_1=M\frac{dI_2}{dt}$

by replacing you obtain:

$\epsilon_1=(1.18*10^{-5}H)(1700A/s)=0.02V=20mV$

the emf is 20mV

If an object falling freely were somehow equipped with an odometer to measure the distance it travels, then the amount of distan

ioda

Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

object is falling Freely with an odometer

Suppose it falls with zero initial velocity

so distance fallen in time t is given by

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

here u=0 and t=time taken

$h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

for $t=1 s$

$h_1=\frac{1}{2}g$

for $t=2 s$

$h_2=\frac{1}{2}g(2)^2=\frac{4}{2}g=2g$

distance traveled in 2 nd sec $=2g-\frac{1}{2}g=\frac{3}{2}g$

for $t=3 s$

$h_3=\frac{1}{2}g(3)^2=\frac{9}{2}g$

distance traveled in 3 rd sec $=\frac{9}{2}g-2g=\frac{5}{2}g$

so we can see that distance traveled in each successive second is increasing

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.

kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy $w = mg$ [m is the mass of the body]
