What happens to the energy of a wave as it moves away from its source?

Physics

Eddi Din [679]2 years ago

Answer:

As the particles move further away from their normal position (up towards the wave crest or down towards the trough), they slow down.

Explanation:

This means that some of their kinetic energy has been converted into potential energy – the energy of particles in a wave oscillates between kinetic and potential energy. Hope that this helps you and have a great day :)

How much kinetic energy does an object have that is moving at a rate of 30 m/s and has a mass of 4000 kg ?

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

K = 1800 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of the object, v = 30 m/s

Mass of the object, m = 4000 kg

We need to find the kinetic energy of the object. The formula for the kinetic energy is given by :

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4000\times 30^2\\\\K=1800000\\\\or\\\\K=1800\ kJ$

So, the required kinetic energy is equal to 1800 kJ.

Given the vector A with components Ax = 2.00, Ay = 6.00, the vector B with components Bx = 2.00, By = 22.00, and the vector D =

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°

Explanation:

Operations With Vectors

Given two vectors in rectangular components:

$\vec a=(ax,ay)\ ,\ \vec b=(bx,by)$

The sum of the vectors is:

$\vec a+\vec b=(ax+bx,ay+by)$

The difference between the vectors is:

$\vec a-\vec b=(ax-bx,ay-by)$

The magnitude of $\vec a$ is:

$|\vec a|=\sqrt{ax^2+ay^2}$

The angle $\vec a$ makes with the horizontal positive direction is:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{ay}{ax}\\$

The question provides the vectors:

$\vec a=(2,6)$

$\vec b=(2,22)$

$\vec d=\vec a-\vec b$

Calculate:

$\vec d=(2,6)-(2,22)=(0,-16)$

The magnitude of $\vec d$ is:

$|\vec d|=\sqrt{0^2+(-16)^2}=\sqrt{0+256}=16$

The angle is calculated by:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{-16}{0}$

The division cannot be calculated because the denominator is zero. We need to estimate the correct angle by looking at the components of the vector. Since the x-coordinate is zero and the y-coordinate is negative, the vector points downwards (south), thus the angle must be -90° or 270° if the range goes from 0° to 360°.

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°
