Answer:

wave changes its path from its initial direction so this phenomenon is known as Refraction of wave

Explanation:

When wave travels from one medium to other medium the due to change in the speed of the wave propagation it deviates from its initial path.

The deviation of the wave from its initial path is known as refraction of wave

Here we can see that wave incident on medium 1 with some angle with the boundary

Then it enters into other medium and then travels in other direction

So here wave changes its path from its initial direction so this phenomenon is known as Refraction of wave

A man pushes a lawn mower on a level lawn with a force of 195 N. If 37% of this force is directed downward, how much work is don

densk [106]

Answer:

$W = 1032.6 J$

Explanation:

Net force by which man push the lawn mower is given as

$F = 195 N$

now it is given that 37% of this force is vertically downwards

so we will have

$F_y = 0.37 \times 195$

$F_y = 72.15 N$

now we also know that

$F_x^2 + F_y^2 = F^2$

here we have

$F_x^2 + 72.15^2 = 195^2$

$F_x = 181.2 N$

Now work done by this force to move the lawn mower is given as

$W = F_x . d$

$W = (181.2)(5.7 m)$

$W = 1032.6 J$

A simple pendulum is used to determine the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of a planet. The pendulum has a length of

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity is 20 $m/sec^2$

So option (E) will be correct answer

Explanation:

We have given length of the pendulum l = 2 m

Time period of the pendulum T = 2 sec

We have to find acceleration due to gravity g

We know that time period of pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

$2=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{2}{g}}$

$0.3184= \sqrt{\frac{2}{g}}$

Squaring both side

$0.1014= {\frac{2}{g}}$

$g=19.71=20m/sec^2$

So acceleration due to gravity is 20 $m/sec^2$

So option (E) will be correct answer.

What is inertia?by Walter Levin..<br>

Tom [10]

Inertia is directly proportional to mass.

What is Walter Lewin famous for?

Walter Hendrik Gustav Lewin (born January 29, 1936) is a Dutch astrophysicist and former professor of physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Lewin earned his doctorate in nuclear physics in 1965 at the Delft University of Technology and was a member of MIT's physics faculty for 43 years beginning in 1966 until his retirement in 2009.

According to Walter Levin,

The concept of moment of inertia is demonstrated by rolling a series of cylinders down an inclined plane.

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed when no forces act upon them.

By rolling a series of cylinders down on an inclined plane , he demonstrated that a cylinder have a smooth friction.

He compares the rolling cylinder by using hollow cylinder and a heavy cylinder , and finalize the result that a hollow cylinder moves slowly but the heavy cylinder move faster.

Hence , By doing this experiment he explained about the inertia that Inertia depend on the mass of the object. As the heavy the object it will take more time to travel or move.
