when a wave moves from a less dense medium to a denser one, most of the wave energy is refracted? A) true B) false

Physics

Galina-37 [17]4 years ago

The correct choice is

B) false

as the wave moves from a less dense medium to a denser one, the frequency of the wave does not change. we know that the energy of the wave directly depends on the frequency. Since the frequency of wave does not change while moving from less dense medium to more dense medium, the energy of the wave does not change.

A car is traveling at a 20.0 m/s for 7.00 s and then suddenly comes to a stop over a 3 s period.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: A) Deceleration of the car is -6.6667 m/s² while it came to stop.

B) The total distance the car travels is 200 meter during the 10 s period.

Explanation:

Given Data

Initial velocity of the car ($$v_{i}$$) =   20.0 m/s

Final velocity of the car (v_{f}) = 0 m/s

Time (in motion) =7.00 s

Time (in rest) =3 s

To find - A) car's deceleration while it came to a stop

              B) the total distance the car travels in 10 s

A) The formula to find the deceleration is

Deceleration = (( final velocity - initial velocity ) ÷ Time)        (m/s²)

Deceleration = ((v_{f}) - ($$v_{i}$$)) ÷ time     (m/s²)

Deceleration =  ( 0.0 - 20 ) ÷ 3      (m/s²)

Deceleration =   (- 20) ÷ 3  (m/s²)

Deceleration   =  - 6.6667 m/s²

(NOTE : Deceleration is the opposite of acceleration so the final result must have the negative sign)

The car's deceleration is  - 6.6667 m/s² while it came to a stop

B) The formula to find the distance traveled by the car is  

Distance traveled by the car is equals to the product of the speed and time

Distance = Speed × Time  (meter)

Distance = 20.0 × 10

Distance = 200 meters

The total distance the car travels during the period of 10 s is 200 meters

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito
Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

c =  \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}

=  \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}  \times 8

= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=  \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=5.32v
