In the photo, a locomotive has broken through the wall of a train station. During the collision, what can be said about the forc

e exerted by the locomotive on the wall?
Physics

Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.

What can you infer about a wave with a short wavelength?
raketka [301]

Answer:

- It can be infer that it has a lower frequency.

<em>In the case of electromagnetic waves.</em>

- A short wavelength means a lower energy,

Explanation:

The wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or valleys while the frequency is the number of crests that pass for a specific point in an interval of time.

For example, a person makes laundry once a weak.

In this example, the event is represented by the laundry and the interval of time is once a weak

The velocity of a wave is defined as:

v = \nu \cdot \lambda  (1)

Where nu is the frequency and \lambda is the wavelenth

\lambda =  \frac{v}{\nu}  (2)

Notice from equation 2 that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency (when the wavelength increases the frequency decreases).

In the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength means a lower energy, as it can be seen in equation 4 (inversely proportional).

E = h\nu  (3)

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} (4)

Which symbol represents a type of electromagnetic radiation released during radioactive decay?
Lena [83]
The correct option is (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma )

Explanation:
Now this question is a tricky one because all of these options are somehow involved in radioactive decay; however, in this case the SYMBOL is required NOT the elements. There are three symbols involved in radioactive decay, which are:
1. α for alpha decay
2. β for beta decay
3. γ for gamma decay 

In the options only one symbol is present which is gamma. Hence option (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma ) is the correct answer.
