Do sound waves always travel in straight lines explain

They travel like waves. Just throw rock at lake you will see wave. When it bumps to barrier barrier reflects some part of it . Not like a line lika a wave

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. At one position along its path it has a velocity of 34.3 m

Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

We'll need two equations.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.

x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t

where t is time.

Given:

v = 47.5 m/s

v₀ = 34.3 m/s

x - x₀ = 40100 m

Find: a and t

(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)

a = 0.0135 m/s²

40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t

t = 980 s

A small ball is attached to the lower end of a 0.800-m-long string, and the other end of the string is tied to a horizontal rod.

mestny [16]

Answer:

a = 17.68 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

length of the string, L = 0.8 m

angle made with vertical, θ = 61°

time to complete 1 rev, t = 1.25 s

radial acceleration = ?

first we have to calculate the radius of the circle

R = L sin θ

R = 0.8 x sin 61°

R = 0.7 m

now, calculating at the angular velocity

$\omega =\dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

$\omega =\dfrac{2\pi}{1.25}$

ω = 5.026 rad/s

now, radial acceleration

a = r ω²

a = 0.7 x 5.026²

a = 17.68 m/s²

hence, the radial acceleration of the ball is equal to 17.68 rad/s²

A parallel plate capacitor with plates of area A and plate separation d is charged so that the potential difference between its

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a parallel plate capacitor of

Area=A

Distance apart =d

Potential difference, =V

If the distance is reduce to d/2

What is p.d

We know that

Q=CV

Then,

V=Q/C

Then this shows that the voltage is inversely proportional to the capacitance

Therefore,

V∝1/C

So, VC=K

Now, the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given as

C= εA/d

When the distance apart is d

Then,

C1=εA/d

When the distance is half d/2

C2= εA/(d/2)

C2= 2εA/d

Then, applying

VC=K

V1 is voltage of the full capacitor V1=V

V2 is the required voltage let say V'

Then,

V1C1=V2C2

V × εA/d=V' × 2εA/d

VεA/d = 2V'εA/d

Then the εA/d cancels on both sides and remains

V=2V'

Then, V'=V/2

The potential difference is half when the distance between the parallel plate capacitor was reduce to d/2

A person can see clearly up close but cannot focus on objects beyond 75.0 cm. She opts for contact lenses to correct her vision.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

(a) nearsighted

(b) diverging

(c) the lens strength in diopters is 1.33 D, and considering the convention for divergent lenses normally prescribed as: -1 33 D

Explanation:

(a) The person is nearsighted because he/she cannot see objects at distances larger than 75 cm.

(b) the type of correcting lens has to be such that it counteracts the excessive converging power of the eye of the person, so the lens has to be diverging (which by the way carries by convention a negative focal length)

$f=\frac{1}{d} =\frac{1}{0.75} = 1.33\,D$

So it would normally be written with a negative signs in front indicating a divergent lens.
