A swimming duck paddles the water with its feet once per time interval of 2.0 s, producing surface waves with this period. The d

uck is moving at constant speed in a pond where the speed of surface waves is 0.30 m/s, and the crests of the waves ahead of the duck have a spacing of 0.20 m.

Answer:

Part A: What is the duck's speed? v=0.2m/s

Part B: How far apart are the crests behind the duck = 1m

Explanation:

The concept applied here is the DOPPLER EFFECT, for example, if one is driving towards a station at 120km/hr, a higher frequency will be heard. and if you are driving away from the station at the same speed, one will hear a much more lower frequency. Tthese effect was proposed by the Austrian physicist by name Johann Christian doppler.

The detailed steps and appropriate formula is as shown in the attached file.

If the distance of a galaxy is 2,000 Mpc, how many years back into the past are we looking when we observe this galaxy
ruslelena [56]

The age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.

The given parameters:

  • <em>distance of the galaxy, x = 2,000 Mpc</em>

According Hubble's law the age of the universe is calculated as follows;

v = H₀x

where;

H₀ = 70 km/s/Mpc

T = \frac{x}{V} \\\\T = \frac{x}{xH_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{H_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{70 \ km/s/Mpc} \\\\T = \frac{1 \ sec}{70 \times 3.24 \times 10^{-20} } \\\\T = 4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\\\\T = \frac{4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\  \times \ years}{3600 \ s \ \times\  24\ h\  \times \ 365.25 \ days} \\\\T = 1.397  \times 10^{10} \ years\\\\T = 13.97 \ billion \ years

Thus, the age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE
