When the direction of an object changes what happens to its velocity?

Physics

liberstina [14]4 years ago

Direction of motion is one part of a complete description of velocity.

So if the direction of motion changes, that's a <em>change of velocity</em>, even if the speed didn't change.

The change of direction is called "an acceleration", even if the speed didn't change.

A traveling periodic wave passes a point of observation. At this point, the time between successive crests is 0.2s. What can you
Aleks04 [339]

The time between the successive crusts will give the time period of the wave.

So, the time period, T of the given wave is 0.2 s.

The frequency of a wave is the reciprocal of its time period. That is,

Frequency, ν = \frac{1}{T}

= \frac{1}{0.2}

= 5 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the given travelling periodic wave is 5 Hz.

An capacitor consists of two large parallel plates of area A separated by a very small distance d. This capacitor is connected t
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Will be doubled.

Explanation:

For a capacitor of parallel plates of area A, separated by a distance d, such that the charges in the plates are Q and -Q, the capacitance is written as:

C = \frac{Q}{V}  = e_0\frac{A}{d}

where e₀ is a constant, the electric permittivity.

Now we can isolate V, the potential difference between the plates as:

V = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}

Now, notice that the separation between the plates is in the numerator.

Thus, if we double the distance we will get a new potential difference V', such that:

V' = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{2d}{A} = 2*( \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}) = 2*V\\V' = 2*V

So, if we double the distance between the plates, the potential difference will also be doubled.
