As waves pass by a duck floating on a lake, the duck bobs up and down but remains in essentially one place. explain why the duck

The duck is not carried by the wave motion because <span>Waves move energy through a medium but don't transfer particles.  So when the waves pass by a duck floating on a lake, the duck just bobs up and down, but remains in its place.</span>

When wile coyote is launched his velocity is 20 m/s. As a slightly underweight 10kg coyote, how far would the 400 N/m spring hav
Deffense [45]

Answer:

E = 1/2 m v^2 = 1/2 k x^2     equating KE of coyote and spring

x^2 = m v^2 / k = 10 kg * 20^2 m^2 / s^2 / 400 N / m

x^2 = 10 * 400 / 400 (kg m^3 / kg-m) = 10 m^2

x = 3.16 m

A bolt is dropped from a bridge under construction, falling 97 m to the valley below the bridge. (a) how much time does it take
exis [7]
The first thing we have to do for this case is write the kinematic equationsto
 vf = a * t + vo
 rf = a * (t ^ 2/2) + vo * t + ro
 Then, for the bolt we have:
 100% of your fall:
 97 = g * (t ^ 2/2)
 clearing t
 t = root (2 * ((97) / (9.8)))
 t = 4.449260429
 89% of your fall:
 0.89*97 = g * (t ^ 2/2)
 clearing t
 t = root (2 * ((0.89 * 97) / (9.8)))
 t = 4.197423894
 11% of your fall
 t = 4.449260429-4.197423894
 t = 0.252

 To know the speed when the last 11% of your fall begins, you must first know how long it took you to get there:
 86.33 = g * (t ^ 2/2)
 Determining t:
 t = root (2 * ((86.33) / (9.8))) = <span> 4.19742389 </span>s
 Then, your speed will be:
 vf = (9.8) * (4.19742389) = 41.135 m / s

 Speed ​​just before reaching the ground:
 The time will be:
 t = 0.252 + <span> 4.197423894</span> = <span> 4.449423894</span> s
 The speed is
 vf = (9.8) * (4.449423894) =<span> <span>43.603</span></span> m / s

 answer
 (a) t = 0.252 s
 (b) 41,135 m / s
 (c) 43.603 m / s

Charge is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an infinitely long solid Cylinder of radius R what is the electric fiel
Arada [10]

Solution :

Let us consider the Gaussian surface that is in the form of a cylinder having a radius of r and a length of A which is $\text{coaxial with the charged cylinder}$.

The charged enclosed by the cylinder is given by,

$q=\rho V$       (here, V = $\pi r^2l$  is the volume of the cylinder)

  $=\pi r^2lp$    

If $\rho$ is positive, then the electric field lines moves in the radial outward direction and is normal to Gaussian surface which is distributed uniformly.

Therefore, total flux through Gaussian cylinder is :

$\phi=EA_{cyl}$

   $=E(2\pi rl)$

Now using Gauss' law, we get

$2\pi \epsilon_0rlE = \pi r^2lp$

or $E=\frac{\rho r}{2 \epsilon_0}$

Therefore, the electric field is $E=\frac{\rho r}{2 \epsilon_0}$

Hence, option (d) is correct.
