In energy point of view, the larger stone had more potential energy before dropping. impacting the water, the larger one, having more kinetic energy which changed from potential energy, tranfered energy to the water and formed wave. the amplitude of the wave indicate the energy of the wave. more energy more amplitude.

The magnitude of the net force versus time graph has a rectangular shape. Often in physics geometric properties of graphs have p
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In this particular case, the area of the graph represents the impulse.

In fact, impulse is defined as the change in momentum of an object:

I=\Delta p

Moreover, impulse is also defined as the product between the magnitude of the force acting on an object and the duration of the collision:

I=F\Delta t

If we plot a graph of the force versus the time, if the force is constant then this graph will have a rectangular shape, and the area under the graph will simply be the product

F\cdot \Delta t

which corresponds to the definition of impulse.

Heather and Matthew walk with an average velocity of 0.98 m/s eastward. If it takes them 34 min to walk to the store, what is th
TEA [102]

Answer:

D= 1999.2 m

Explanation:

Given that

Average velocity ,v= 0.98 m/s

time ,t= 34 min

We know that

1 min  = 60 s

That is why

t= 34 x 60 =2040 s

We know that

Displacement = Average velocity x time

D= v t

Now by putting the values in the above equation

D= 0.98 x 2040 m

D= 1999.2 m (eastward)

The direction of the displacement will be towards eastward.

That is why the displacement will be 1999.2 m or we can say that 1.9992 km.

A student is doing a lab experiment in which she uses diffraction to measure the width of a shaft of her hair. She shines a 530
professor190 [17]

Answer:

.09 mm

Explanation:

In case of diffraction by single slit with width a the width of central maxima is given below

width = 2 λD/a

where λ is wavelength of light , D is distance of screen , a is width o slit

substituting the given values

14 x 10⁻³ = \frac{2\times530\times10^{-9}\times1.2}{a}

a = .09 mm

b) If a is greater , width of central maxima will be less wide.
