Water waves approach an underwater "shelf" where the velocity changes from 2.8 m/s to 2.1 m/s. If the incident wave crests make

a 34o angle with the shelf, what will be the angle of refraction?

Answer:

24°

Explanation:

sin(34°)/sin(x)=v2/v1

x=arcsin(2,1*sin(34°)/2,8)=24°

A coil of wire containing N turns is in an external magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil and it steadil

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The Resultant Induced Emf in coil is 4∈.

Explanation:

Given that,

A coil of wire containing having N turns in an External magnetic Field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil which is steadily changing. An Emf (∈) is induced in the coil.

To find :-

find the induced Emf if rate of change of the magnetic field and the number of turns in the coil are Doubled (but nothing else changes).

So,

Emf induced in the coil represented by formula

∈ = $-N\frac{d\phi}{dt}$ ...................(1)

Where:

. $\phi = BAcos\theta$ { B is magnetic field }

{A is cross-sectional area}

. $N =$ No. of turns in coil.

. $\frac{d\phi}{dt} =$ Rate change of induced Emf.

Here,

Considering the case :-

$N1 = 2N$ & $\frac{d\phi1}{dt} = 2\frac{d\phi}{dt}$

Putting these value in the equation (1) and finding the new emf induced (∈1)

∈1 = $-N1\times\frac{d\phi1}{dt}$

∈1 = $-2N\times2\frac{d\phi}{dt}$

∈1 = $4 [-N\times\frac{d\phi}{dt}]$

∈1 = 4∈ ...............{from Equation (1)}

Hence,

The Resultant Induced Emf in coil is 4∈.

Where will water evaporate from?

Elodia [21]

Water will evaporate from any water source and life forms. The answer is letter C. An application of heat into water will cause the water to evaporate. This is because the intermolecular forces of attraction of water can be broken by sufficient energy application.

Name and describe the two layers inside Earth that are undergoing convection and indicate one major consequence of each.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Mantle and core

Explanation:

The Mantle and Core are the two components within Earth experiencing convection. In several ways the mantle is significant. The one outcome of convective current is the creation of the fresh oceanic lithosphere around OCEANIC RIDGES, formed by mantle upwelling. Core is indeed the planet's innermost layer.

A 25.0-kg child is standing at the edge of a horizontal merry-go-round with a radius of 2.40 m and a moment of inertia of 356 kg

motikmotik

Answer:

$\omega_{f}=1.634\ rad/s$

Explanation:

given,

diameter of merry - go - round = 2.40 m

moment of inertia = I = 356 kg∙m²

speed of the merry- go-round = 1.80 rad/s

mass of child = 25 kg

initial angular momentum of the system

$L_i = I\omega_i$

$L_i =356\times 1.80$

$L_i =640.8\ kg.m^2/s$

final angular momentum of the system

$L_f = (I_{disk}+mR^2)\omega_{f}$

$L_f = (356 + 25\times 1.2^2)\omega_{f}$

$L_f= (392)\omega_{f}$

from conservation of angular momentum

$L_i = L_f$

$640.8= (392)\omega_{f}$

$\omega_{f}=1.634\ rad/s$
