The correct answer to the question is reflection.

EXPLANATION:

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand reflection.

Reflection is the type of phenomenon in which a wave is reflected back to the same medium when it  incidents on a obstacle. The obstacle may be any opaque body, mirror etc.

As per the diagram, the wave incidents obliquely on the wall.

After incident on the wall, the wave is reflected back to the same medium.Here, the wall acts as a obstacle. This property of wave is called as reflection.

Diffraction and reflection can not be the suitable answer for it . It is so because diffraction refers to the bending nature of light at the edge of an obstacle while refraction is the optical phenomenon in which the light ray will be bent towards or away from the normal at the interface of the refracting surface.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is reflection.

What is the wavelength associated with 0.113kg ball traveling with velocity of 43 m/s?
lesya [120]

Answer:

2.73×10¯³⁴ m.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 0.113 Kg

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Wavelength (λ) =?

Next, we shall determine the energy of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.113 Kg

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Energy (E) =?

E = ½m²

E = ½ × 0.113 × 43²

E = 0.0565 × 1849

E = 104.4685 J

Next, we shall determine the frequency. This can be obtained as follow:

Energy (E) = 104.4685 J

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Frequency (f) =?

E = hf

104.4685 = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × f

Divide both side by 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 104.4685 / 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 15.76×10³⁴ Hz

Finally, we shall determine the wavelength of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Frequency (f) = 15.76×10³⁴ Hz

Wavelength (λ) =?

v = λf

43 = λ × 15.76×10³⁴

Divide both side by 15.76×10³⁴

λ = 43 / 15.76×10³⁴

λ = 2.73×10¯³⁴ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the ball is 2.73×10¯³⁴ m.

If the resistance is not changed but the voltage is increased, what happens to the current
julsineya [31]

We know that According to Ohm's Law :

Current passing through a Conductor is directly proportional to the Voltage over a given Resistance.

⇒ V ∝ I

⇒ V = I × R

If Resistance is not changed and Voltage is increased, Based on Ohm's law we can conclude that Current flowing will also increase, because Voltage is directly proportional to Current.

A 645 g block is released from rest at height h0 above a vertical spring with spring constant k = 530 N/m and negligible mass. T
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a)5.88J

b)-5.88J

c)0.78m

d)0.24m

Explanation:

a) W by the block on spring is given by

W= \frac{1}{2}kx² = \frac{1}{2}(530)(0.149)² =  5.88 J

b)  Workdone by the spring = - Workdone by the block = -5.88J

c) Taking x = 0 at the contact point we have U top = U bottom

So, mgh_o = \frac{1}{2}kx² - mgx

And, h_o= ( \frac{1}{2}kx² - mgx )/(mg) = [\frac{1}{2} (530)(0.149^2)-(0.645)(9.8)(0.149)]/(0.645x9.8)    

   h_o=   0.78m            

d) Now, if the initial initial height of block is 3h_o

h_o = 3 x 0.78 = 2.34m

then, \frac{1}{2}kx² - mgx - mgh_o =0

 

\frac{1}{2}(530)x²  - [(0.645)(9.8)x] - [(0.645)(9.8)(2.34) = 0

265x² - 6.321x - 14.8 = 0  

a=265

b=-6.321

c=-14.8

By using quadratic eq. formula, we'll have the roots

x= 0.24 or x=-0.225

Considering only positive root:

x= 0.24m (maximum  compression of the spring)
