Answer:

Behaves as a wave.

Explanation:

The dual nature of light means that light behaves as a wave. If the light consisted of small particles, the alternating light and dark bands would not have occurred.

Sometimes it behaves like a particle (called a photon), which explains how light travels in straight lines.

What is the speed of a horse in meters per second that runs a distance of 1.2 miles in 2.4 minutes

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Time t=2.4 minutes=2.4×60=144 seconds
distance s=1.2 miles=1.2×1609=1930.8 meters
speed v=s/t=1930.8÷144=[tex] \frac{1930.8}{144} = \frac{160.9}{12} =[/13.408m/s ~nearly]

Space scientists have a large test chamber from which all the air can be evacuated and in which they can create a horizontal uni

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

Explanation:

time of flight t = 2·V·sinθ/g

= (2 * 6.0m/s * sin35º) / 9.8m/s²

= 0.702 s

The body travels for this much time and cover horizontal displacement x from the point of lunch

So, use kinematic equation for horizontal motion

horizontal displacement

x = Vcosθ*t + ½at²

2.9 m = 6.0m/s * cos35º * 0.702s + ½a * (0.702s)²

a = -2.23 m/s²

This is the horizontal acceleration of the object.

Since the object is subject to only electric force in horizontal direction, this acceleration is due to electric force only

Therefore,the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile will be

F = m*|a|

= 0.015kg * 2.23m/s²

= 0.0335 N

Thus, the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

Particle A and particle B, each of mass M, move along the x-axis exerting a force on each other. The potential energy of the sys

Archy [21]

Speed of particle B is 2v₀/3 m/s to the left. Particle A and particle B will always have equal speed since they experience equal forces.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The speed and direction of the particle B is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy as follows;

K.E₁ + P.E₁ = K.E₂ + P.E₂

$\frac{1}{2} Mv^2_A + \frac{G}{r^2} = \frac{1}{2} Mv^2_B + \frac{G}{r^2} \\\\ \frac{1}{2} Mv^2_A = \frac{1}{2} Mv^2_B\\\\v^2_A = v^2_B\\\\v_A = v_B$

$v_B = \frac{2v_0}{3} \ m/s \ to \ the \ left$

At any given position, the speed of particle A and particle B will be equal, since they experience equal force and they have equal masses.

The complete question is below:

Particle A and particle B, each of mass M, move along the x-axis exerting a force on each other. The potential energy of the system of two particles assosicated with the force is given by the equation U=G/r 2, where r is the distance between the two particles and G is a positive constant. At time t=T1 particle A is observed to be traveling with speed 2vo/3 to the left. The speed and direction of motion of particle B is ?
