Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.

A driven RLC circuit is being driven by an AC emf source with a maximum current of 2.75 A and maximum voltage of 150 V. The curr

Answer:

(a). Z = 54.54 ohm

(b). R = 36 ohm

(c). The circuit will be Capacitive.

Explanation:

Given data

I = 2.75 A

Voltage = 150 V

$\phi = 0.85$ rad = 48.72°

(a). Impedance of the circuit is given by

$Z = \frac{V}{I}$

$Z = \frac{150}{2.75}$

Z = 54.54 ohm

(b). We know that resistance of the circuit is given by

$R = \frac{Z}{\sqrt{1 + \tan^{2}\phi } }$

Put the values of Z & $\phi$ in above formula we get

$R = \frac{54.54}{\sqrt{1 + \tan^{2} ( \ 48.72) } }$

R = 36 ohm

(c). Since the phase angle is negative so the circuit will be Capacitive.

Trevor places a mass on a spring. When he releases it, the mass and spring move in simple harmonic motion.

777dan777 [17]

The correct answer is D He could pull the mass down farther.

Amplitude, is the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. So to increase the amplitude the spring should be pulled down further which can increase the amplitude.
