Explanation:

John is traveling north at 20 meters/second and his friend Betty is traveling south at 20 meters/second.

We know that the total distance covered divided by total time taken is called speed of an object. It is a scalar quantity i.e. it have only magnitude. While velocity is a vector quantity.

In this case, north direction is considered as positive while south direction is considered as negative.

So, John's speed is 20 meters/second and Betty's speed is 20 meters/second as speed is a scalar quantity.

John's velocity is 20 m/s north.
Betty's velocity is 20 m/s south.
Their speeds are both 20 m/s.

1. The amount of energy carried by the wave is related to the Amplitude of the wave.
2. A mechanical wave requires an initial energy input, Once this initial energy is added the wave travels through the medium until all it's energy is transferred.

The plane of a5cm*8cm rectangular loop of wire is parallel to a 0.19T magnetic field the loop carries a current of 6.2 A. What t
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Torque; τ = 4.712 × 10^(-3) J

Magnetic moment; M = 0.0248 J/T

Explanation:

Torque is gotten from the formula;

τ = BIA

Where;

B is magnetic field

I is current

A is area

We are given;

B = 0.19T

I = 6.2A

Rectangle dimensions = 5cm by 8cm = 0.05m by 0.08m

Thus;

Area; A = 0.05m × 0.08m = 0.004 m²

Thus;

τ = 0.19 × 6.2 × 0.004

τ = 4.712 × 10^(-3) J

Formula for the magnetic moment is given by;

M = IA

M = 6.2 × 0.004

M = 0.0248 J/T

What is the internal energy of 2.00 mol of diatomic hydrogen gas (H2) at 35°C?
djyliett [7]
As you mentioned, we will use <span>Equipartition Theorem.
</span><span>H2 has 5 degrees of freedom; 3 translations and 2 rotation
</span>Therefore:
Internal energy = (5/2) nRT
You just substitute in the equation with the values of R and T and calculate the internal energy as follows:
Internal energy = (5/2) x 2 x <span>8.314 x 308 = 32.0089 x 10^3 J</span>

The burner on a stove is 325° f. given that the burner emits electromagnetic radiation as a blackbody, what is the maximum wavel
lesantik [10]
To solve this, we use the Wien's Displacement Law as shown in the attached picture. First, convert the temperature to Kelvin. 

C to F:
C = (F - 32)*5/9
C = (325 - 32)*5/9 = 162.78 °C

C to K:
K = C + 273
K = 162.78 + 273 = 435.78 K

λmax = 2898/435.78 = <em>6</em><em>.65 μm</em>

How many cycles have been completed after 3 seconds on the graph​
Reptile [31]

Answer:

3 Cycles

Explanation:

Every cycle on a cosine function are marked by the completion of 5 key points when moving along the x-axis:

(5, 0, -5, 0, 5)

This cycle has a frequency of 2, occurring once every second, thus answering our question easily.
