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.

3. A ray of light consisting of blue light (wavelength 480 nm) and red light (wavelength 670 nm) is incident on a thick piece of
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

The angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass is 42.555 - 42.283 = 0.272 degrees.

Explanation:

Given that,

The respective indices of refraction for the blue light and the red light are 1.4636 and 1.4561.

A ray of light consisting of blue light (wavelength 480 nm) and red light (wavelength 670 nm) is incident on a thick piece of glass at 80 degrees.

We need to find the angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass.

Using Snell's law for red light as :

n_1\sin\theta_1=n_2\sin\theta_2\\\\\theta_2=\sin^{-1}((\dfrac{n_2}{n_1})\sin\theta_1)\\\\\theta_2=\sin^{-1}((\dfrac{1}{1.4561})\sin(80))\\\\\theta_2=42.555

Again using Snell's law for blue light as :

n_1\sin\theta_1=n_2\sin\theta'_2\\\\\theta'_2=\sin^{-1}((\dfrac{n_2}{n_1})\sin\theta_1)\\\\\theta'_2=\sin^{-1}((\dfrac{1}{1.4636 })\sin(80))\\\\\theta'_2=42.283

The angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass is 42.555 - 42.283 = 0.272 degrees.

A machine gun fires 50-g bullets at the rate of 4 bullets per second. The bullets leave the gun at a speed of 1000 m/s. What is
TEA [102]

Answer:

Average recoil force experienced by machine will be 200 N

Explanation:

We have give mass of each bullet m = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

There are 4 bullets

So mass of 4 bullets = 4×0.05 = 0.2 kg

Initial speed of the bullet u = 0 m/sec

And final speed of the bullet v = 1000 m/sec

So change in momentum P=m(v-u)=0.2\times (1000-0)=200kgm/sec

Time is given per second so t = 1 sec

We know that force is equal to rate of change of momentum

So force will be equal to F=\frac{200}{1}=200N

So average recoil force experienced by machine will be 200 N

Monochromatic light of a given wavelength is incident on a metal surface. However, no photoelectrons are emitted. If electrons a
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Light of a shorter wavelength should be used.

Explanation:

This is studied in the phenomenon called photoelectric effect, in which light is able to release electrons from a metal, said electrons are called photoelectrons .

The experiments that have been carried out show that <u>increasing  or decreasing the intensity of the light will not cause the photoelectrons to be emitted</u>, what will cause the photoelectrons to be emitted is to increase the frequency of the incident light.

And a higher frequency corresponds to a shorter wavelength according to the equation:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

(where f is frequency, c the speed of light, and \lambda the wavelength)

So the answer is that the wavelength of the light must be shortened to cause the emission of electrones.

In which direction is the magnetic force acting on the charge? into the screen out of the screen up down
Harrizon [31]

The direction in which the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards.

<h3>What is Magnetic force?</h3>

This is the attraction and repulsion which usually occurs during the motion of electrically charged particles.

In the magnetic field, the charge is moving to the left. Therefore the direction the magnetic force is acting on the charge is upwards which is gotten via right hand rule.
