Yes, all waves can be distorted, deflected, or changed

<span>Waves are a means by which energy travels. Many different particles move in waves. </span>All waves can be changed through interference with waves of similar wavelengths.

Two boxes sit side by side on a smooth horizontal surface. The lighter box 5.2 kg, the heavier box has a mass of 7.4kg (a) find
Paladinen [302]

OK.  So you're pushing on the small box, and on the other side of it, the small
box is pushing on the big box. So you're actually pushing both of them.

-- The total mass that you're pushing is (5.2 + 7.4) = 12.6 kg.

-- You're pushing it with 5.0N of force.

-- Acceleration of the whole thing = (force)/(mass) = 5/12.6 = <em>0.397 m/s²</em> (rounded)

-- Both boxes accelerate at the same rate. So the box farther away from you ...
the big one, with 7.4 kg of mass, accelerates at the same rate.

The force on it to make it accelerate is (mass) x (acceleration) =

                                                              (7.4 kg) x (5/12.6 m/s²) =  <em>2.936 N.</em>

The only force on the big box comes from the small box, pushing it from behind. 
So that same  <em>2.936N</em>  must be the contact force between the boxes.

Olaf is standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo, New York; there is negligible fricti
Citrus2011 [14]

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

a) In the first scenario, Olaf and the ball have the same final velocity.

mu = (M + m) v

(0.400 kg) (10.9 m/s) = (70.2 kg + 0.400 kg) v

v = 0.0618 m/s

b) In the second scenario, the ball has a final velocity of 8.10 m/s in the opposite direction.

mu = mv + MV

(0.400 kg) (10.9 m/s) = (0.400 kg) (-8.10 m/s) + (70.2 kg) v

v = 0.108 m/s

A piece of aluminum has a volume of 4.89 x 10-3 m3. The coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is = 69 x 10-6(C°)-1. The t
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

11.515 Joule

Explanation:

Volume of aluminium = V = 4.89×10⁻³ m³

Coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum = α = 69×10⁻⁶ /°C

Initial temperature = 19.1°C

Final temperature = 357°C

Pressure of air = 1.01×10⁵ Pa

Change in temperature = ΔT= 357-19.1 = 337.9 °C

Change in volume

ΔV = αVΔT

⇒ΔV = 69×10⁻⁶×4.89×10⁻³×337.9

⇒ΔV = 114010.839×10⁻⁹ m³

Work done

W = PΔV

⇒W = 1.01×10⁵×114010.839×10⁻⁹

⇒W = 11.515 J

∴ Work is done by the expanding aluminum is 11.515 Joule

How much energy has 4×10^10m^3 of water collected in a reservoir at a hight of 100 m from the power house ?What kind of energy i
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

PE = 3.92x10^16J

potential energy

Explanation:

PE = m*g*h

mass of water = 1000kg/m³

(4*10^10m³)*1000kg = 4*10^13kg

PE = (4*10^13kg)*(9.81m/s²)*(100m)

PE = 3.92x10^16J
