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.

Explain how a voltage is produced in the secondary coil of the transformer.

Tema [17]

Answer:

the primary coil current produces a magnetic field, which changes as the current changes. the iron core increases the strength of the magnetic field. the changing magnetic field induces a changing potential difference (voltage) in the secondary coil.

An 8.00- W resistor is dissipating 100 watts. What are the current through it and the difference of potential across it?

hjlf

Answer:

I= 3.5 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rating of resistor R= 8 ohms

power P= 100W

Required

The current I

Step two

Yet this power is also given by

$P = I^2R$

make I subject of the formula we have

$I= \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }$

substitute

$I= \sqrt{\frac{100}{8} }\\\\I=\sqrt{12.5}\\\\I= 3.5 amps$

If a wave has a frequency of 74 Hz and a speed of 444 m/s, what is the wave's wavelength?

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

6 m

Explanation:

velocity = wavelength x frequency

444 m/s = wavelength x 74 Hz

444 m/s / 74 Hz = wavelength

wavelength = 6m
