Answer:

Up and down movement of hands shows the motion of the students.

Explanation:

In this case, Ten students stand in a circle and are told to make a transverse wave. In transverse wave the particles move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion. The maximum displacement of particles creates the crest and the minimum displacement creates the troughs.

In order to describe the motion of of the students, each student has to move his or her hand up and down continuously. The movement in upper direction forms crest and the movement in downward direction forms trough.

Answer:

Gamma rays occupy the short-wavelength end of the spectrum; they can have wavelengths smaller than the nucleus of an atom. Visible light wavesare one-thousandths the width of human hair--about a million times longer than gamma rays. Radio waves, at the long-wavelength end of the spectrum, can be many meters long.

The potential-energy function u(x) is zero in the interval 0≤x≤l and has the constant value u0 everywhere outside this interval.
VMariaS [17]
Look first for the relation between deBroglie wavelength (λ) and kinetic energy (K): 
K = ½mv² 
v = √(2K/m) 
λ = h/(mv) 
= h/(m√(2K/m)) 
= h/√(2Km) 

So λ is proportional to 1/√K. 
in the potential well the potential energy is zero, so completely the electron's energy is in the shape of kinetic energy: 
K = 6U₀ 

Outer the potential well the potential energy is U₀, so 
K = 5U₀ 
(because kinetic and potential energies add up to 6U₀) 

Therefore, the ratio of the de Broglie wavelength of the electron in the region x>L (outside the well) to the wavelength for 0<x<L (inside the well) is: 
1/√(5U₀) : 1/√(6U₀) 
= √6 : √5

A force does 30000 J of work along a distance of 9.5m. Find the applied force.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: F=3158N

Explanation:

Work is the product of force applied and the distance the object moves along the force applied. Work is measured in joules and the equation is as follows

W = F x d

So that F = W/d

F = 30000 J / 9.5m

F = ~3158 N

When atoms are split, they release energy. This concept applies to (2 points)
cupoosta [38]

This applies to nuclear reactions, specifically nuclear fission.

This huge release of energy has been used in atomic bombs and in the nuclear reactors that generate electricity.
